I've had limited time to work on
eDrum MIDI Mapper recently so I've decided to release a final-candidate build now, rather than let it sit idle until I find time to update the documentation and installer (which invariably take more time than updating the actual application).
Download: eDrumMIDIMapper_v12fc1.zip (1.7MB)
The zip archive contains an updated exe and brief change log. This new exe can be used along side the v1.1 release, but you might want to save a backup of your v1.1 settings just in case something goes screwy.
This release contains a few minor bug fixes plus a couple frequently requested features. One new feature is essentially invisible but useful nonetheless; Notes, controller messages, and polytouch events are now echoed to the output as-is if they aren't filtered by a pad. More and more hosts are gaining native edrum support so this change lets you set up filters only for the few triggers that may need special attention, and lets the host handle the rest of the kit.
This build also features more flexible choking options. On the input side, you can now define a "choke note" to support hardware that doesn't send polytouch messages, such as the Alesis Trigger IO. You can also define a "choke note" on the output side for hosts that use mute groups for cymbal chokes, like XLN Audio's Addictive Drums. These input and output options are entirely separate, so no matter what the hardware sends (note or polytouch) and no matter what the host expects (note or polytouch) the filter can deal with it and get things working.
Please report any bugs/problems with this build by commenting to this post or through my
contact page. If all goes well this build will be repackaged as the official 1.2 release in a couple weeks time.
