Looking for Epic/Orchestral drum set for PA 600

[TheoAsk]

Hi,

I would like to compose Epic and Orchestral music on my KORG PA 600 arranger keyboard. Do you know where I can find free drum sets in these categories on the Web please? Also looking for Epic/Orchestral free PCM sounds for the PA 600 (it they exist).



Thanks in advance!

Have you looked at the Orchestral kits already on the PA600? Like LEGACY >> Drum & SFX >> P2 >> ORCHESTRAL ? You'll find the chromatic timpani there. There is also an Orchestral Kit in the GM section .... GM >> DRUM >> P1 >> Orchestral Kit GM

You can also create you own custom drum kit(s) in Sound mode to get just the instruments and layers you want.

Hi,

How can I get the drum mapping of the different instruments on the keytboard keys?

I mean: I would like to have a visual of where the various drum instruments are placed to be able to play them during recording.

Can I get them on screen by any chance of the PA 600 or in a PDF?

See page 227 of the PA600 Reference Guide found here

Very good thanks. But it still doesn't give me a visual mapping of the drum instruments on the keyoboards. These are for the banks...

I used to have a TECHIKS KN 2000 keyboard and the drum instruments were written above each piano key...Not on the PA 600...

When you are creating a new DK the mapping is what ever you want it to be. When you edit a pre-existing DK you can see the mappings in the DK edit window.



As you press a key it will highlight on the screen above. In the example above KEY = C-1 and SAMPLE = #17 BD Dry 1 (Bass Drum Dry 1)

By the way, the reference I gave above is not for the banks, but for the mapping of sample number to sample. This is the Reference Guide not the User Manual.
