I have just about finished my custom percussion kit and map for drum kit transcription, with all 43 playing technique sounds programmed, bound, and notating correctly. However, 2 of the sounds do not match when played back.
-I am using Dorico 6 Elements and Kontakt for playback
-Both of these samples play the correct audio and notate correctly from my midi keyboard, and they both play the wrong audio but still notate correctly from the built in Dorico Drum Pad
The first,is supposed to be a bell sound for a crash technique alternative:
- I have the crash sound set to C#7 and the bell set to E8, but no matter what I do playback is just playing C#7 for them both. My lower crash with the same setup is working just fine
- I have tried many many technique combinations, as well as binding the bell lower on the keyboard
How it’s notating (this part is working)
My Playing techniques:
Percussion map (marked with green), marked with blue is the lower crash and bell sound that is working just fine
The second is the Green splash, It plays the note bound to the yellow splash (C#6) no matter what I do. The blue splash is playing back correctly
The three splashes all have this technique layout with splash 1,2, and 3 techniques respectively:
The map contents
I am just ignoring it for now because this only affects playback. Although I would really like to master my understanding of percussion maps.
