I would love to see Midi Learn function that can "move" an entire instrument (cymbal, tom, snare etc) with all articulations intact to a different pad, and with that move all midi notes, articulations etc to the new corresponding pad you hit.
I have a Roland TD30KV kit and module that I use with SD3, which works great with the Roland e-drum mapping preset for the factory libraries. But if I want to for instance move Cymbal 1 to be placed on Cymbal 5 for instance, I have to either manually move all articulations to the new midi note positions, which I have no idea how to do since there are 9 articulations for a cymbal. Going thru the midi learn function only allows me to move a single articulation at a time, and since I have no idea where on the physical Roland cymbal pad to hit other than crash and bell, I can´t get the cymbal to work properly if I try to "move" it to a different cymbal pad.
The same goes for X-Drums. If I have an extra pad connected to the aux input of the module and want to add for instance another cymbal, tom, snare or whatever to that pad using an X-Drum, I can only "midi learn" one articulation at a time, making it equally difficult to make it work properly.
So an option inside the midi learn feature to:
- Learn (single articulation - only selected articulation will be moved to the corresponding pad position upon strike)
- Learn (all articulations - all articulations will be moved and mapped correctly to the corresponding pad upon strike regardless of strike postion)
