Drums are not played with notes but with events. You trigger |
| 4 |
the drum or you don't trigger it. But there's no such range thing |
| 5 |
like a piano has or strings or synths. Back in the 1980s some |
| 6 |
people thought, it would be good to have something like a |
| 7 |
drum map. Switching from a piano to strings only needs some |
| 8 |
adjustment in octaves but notes sound the same. Switching from |
| 9 |
one drum set to another could cause a mess or silence. Without |
| 10 |
a standardized assignment of note (events) and drums it's quite |
| 11 |
hard to move from a jazzy drum set with brushes to a more |
| 12 |
straightforward rock drum set. |
