Need Help Using Microkorg's Midi as a Drum controller

Post by roland.19 »

I was wondering how easy it would be to assign drums to specific keys on the Microkorg, so that I can record then through Cool Edit....

Any help would be appreciated...

roland, all you'd need is a sampler/drumkit VST/DX instrument you can run in a host to accept MIDI signals. Then simply set your Omni/1 Midi to your sampler with your drum kits ready (one sample per note) and play away just like an MPC (but with keys not pads!) I do the same thing with my MK and my M-Audio 49key. Works great :)

Hope this helps, if you need details just ask :D

I will be using Reason, and my producer friend is sending me like 150MB worth of drum kits....so I guess thats all I need?

I use Ableton personally for using my micrkorg as a drum machine through midi but it can be done with Reason too
