Help Remapping in FL

[aaroncomp]

This question was misplaced recently, so sorry for that mishap, anyway...


I've been successfully using DFH Superior through FL Studio 4.0 for several months now. When I begin a new song, I will typically make a quick drum track using the stock drum sounds in FL, record bass and guitar over that for timing and general feel, then go back and create the real drums with DFH Superior.

So with my poor overall grasp of MIDI, I have a question. Let's say I have my quick drum track as mentioned above in FL, with each instrument (kick, snare, etc.) in each own channel, each on it's own "Piano Roll." How do you load the DFH Drummer plugin and remap my generic drums to the DFH drums? Remapping is the real problem I'm having. Seems like I could save a bunch of time if remapping was workable.

Thanks in advance.

Here are links to two good articles on midi basics - part one and part two. They may be a little basic for you, but we can all use a refresher course now and then...

As far as mapping samples in FL, they use a system based on 'parent' and 'child' sample slots. I've reverse engineered this for others with a similar problem to yours, but with a VSTi as a sound source it complicates things. I suggest you bring up the Akai MPD16 template -- you'll find it under the File meny -- then load your DFH presets from there...
