How to remap MIDI notes for electronic drum kit (Cubasis 3)

I am using Cubasis 3 on Android and I have connected my electronic drum kit to the app via MIDI.

Most of it works great, but I am having an issue with the drum mapping: a few of my drum pads are triggering the wrong sounds in Cubasis (for example, a tom pad plays a cymbal sound, or vice versa).

Could you please guide me on how to correct or remap these MIDI notes within the app? Is there a built-in MIDI learn feature or a drum map editor in the Android version that allows me to reassign the pads to the correct instrument sounds?

Hi @marcelo.vizioli

Thanks for your message and a warm welcome to the Cubasis forum!

Please give these steps a try:

  • Tap the KEYS button and switch to pads
  • Tap the “e” button to edit the pads, and assign the notes that you’d like to trigger externally
  • Enable Setup / MIDI / MIDI Learn mode
  • Open the pads again (you should see green overlays)
  • Tap a pad, then trigger your external drum kit to assign it
  • See Steinberg help for more info Steinberg

Please let us know if this solved your problem!

Thanks
Lars

Hi @LSlowak

Thank you so much for the warm welcome and the clear instructions!

I followed the steps you outlined, and it worked perfectly. My electronic drum kit is now fully assigned and triggering exactly as it should.

Thanks for the great support!

Hi Lars,
I did not even know the pads could be remapped, who said you can’t teach an old dog new tricks lol
Thank you for this information.
