Percussion Agent, or Beat Agent?

If I load Groove Agent into my DAW (Reaper), it reports its note names and they are displayed. So I guess I could make one. It seems to vary depending on which kit is loaded.

(Cubase can also collect the note names.)

Thank you for answering. I hoped there was a ready configured percussion map available for download somewhere. But now I’ll take my time to build one from scratch. I guess there is a lot to learn in it. Thanks again!

There is definitely a lot to learn. I have spent hours with percussion maps.

For Groove Agent, it is a little more confusing since there are both pads and piano keys. I think you will want to use the pad notes. For the “Ambience 01” kit, they look like the following. Maybe it will give you a hint.

37:C#1 Kick 2 (Very-low) tech natural?
