Yamaha DTXPLORER and Software, MIDI Help is needed.

[blazingstrings]

Alright, I searched and looked and tried and am getting no were fast with this.

I have a Yamaha DTXplorer electronic drum kit and am using garageband for its synths and such.

When I am playing the pads on my kit some are perfectly assigned and work but some pads like my snare don't trigger anything(Yes the pad works with the drum brain).

I cant reassign the pads to different notes in the brain(Which sucks).

Is there an easy way to do this such as a MIDI utility? I have battery 3 but I need to install it. Just wondering if that would be easier to assign sounds to pads.....

Any thoughts?

Thanks

any sampler would be the way to go (i.e. battery). Chances are that the drums are laid out by way of a GM map so you may want to check if there is a way to map them on a chromatic scale which would make setting up a sampler patch a little easier

I checked that out but no go on the chromatic scale... But after I installed battery(Didn't really have a use for it till now), It was pretty easy to assign a pad to the drum cells in Battery...

Thanks for the help and info.
