Here's the Stream Byter code to convert Yamaha DTXPLORER input into the SampleTank app kits via channel 10 using Midibridge. I entered the code into the output box for iRig midi and connected that to midibridge in and then connected midibridge out to SampleTank in.
SampleTank is a little tricky as the note labels on the pads are deceptive since you have to trigger them with midi notes that are an octave higher. Here are two options since there are sixteen SampleTank pads and only 9 drum inputs:
# Enter rewrite rules here
# Press 'Install Rules' when done
# remap for dtxplorer to SampleTank
# plays on channel 10 in SampleTank
N9 1F = XX 26 # snare
N9 2E = XX 2A # hihat
N9 21 = XX 24 # kick
N9 30 = XX 32 # hi tom
N9 2F = XX 2D # mid tom
N9 2B = XX 29 # low tom
Alternative:
# Enter rewrite rules here
# Press 'Install Rules' when done
# remap for dtxplorer to SampleTank
# plays on channel 10 in SampleTank
N9 1F = XX 28 # snare
N9 2E = XX 2C # hihat
N9 21 = XX 24 # kick
N9 30 = XX 32 # hi tom
N9 2F = XX 2D # mid tom
N9 2B = XX 29 # low tom

Here are the SampleTank hex codes needed to trigger the pads, please note they're an octave higher than the corresponding note label in format note hex, :
D#2 33, F2 35, C#2 31, E2 34
D2 32, A1 2D, F1 29, A#1 2E
C#1 25, D#1 27, F#1 2A, G#1 2C
B0 23, C1 24, D1 26, E1 28

Hi plu,
Thanks for the procedure. I'll try it!
I've got the Roland dual-trigger crash pad (separate bow/edge triggering and choke capabilities). Do you know how could I configure this pad on sampletank?
I've tried it on garageband but has not worked yet.

Hi cgaspar, What brain do you use with the pads? td8? If I can locate the MIDI spec. for the Roland kit it should be possible to map those to the sampletank pads. You'd need to setup the sampletank pads so that you had the sounds loaded for the different type of crash trigger events; ie. bow, edge and choke Alternatively it is possible to use MidiVision to capture the exact hex codes directly from your pads for the Stream Byter. Regards, Nic. |

Hi nic, thanks for the response! Actually, I'm using the Yamaha DTXPLORER's brain and adding the roland CY-8 into it. I found the midi transmit note numbers related to DTXPLORER's brain as follows: s12.postimg.org/e532nh8xp/yamaha.pngI suppose that the midi note number associated with the crash bow and edge is 49 and 57 respectively. In addition, the brain recognise when I muffle the pad while i'm playing. It's possible to add it to the rules cited by the user plu? Regards, cgaspar. Attachments:

Hi cgaspar,
Thanks for posting the note details.
To map the crash edge to Crash E2 pad and ride edge to R.Bell pad in sampletank, just add the following rule to the other rules above:
N9 34 = XX 35 # ride bell
N9 39 = XX 34 # crash edge
The ride & crash main notes are already the same (33 and 31 respectively).
Maybe you want the ride and ride bell swapped since the above will map dtx ride edge to ride bell, and dtx ride to ride
For the choking effect, my guess is that this is done not with a separate note, but by sending a note off when you clamp, so this may all just work.
You may need to fiddle about with the sounds you load into the pads.
Hope that helps. Post back if you need further clarification.
Regards, Nic.

Hi nic,
I've tried to connect the irig pro(in) into the sampletank (out) - midibridge interface option - but no sound has been made. However, it works for the garageband when I connect the irig pro(in) into the midibrige (out).
It's strange because no sound is made on sampletank even though I select the channel 10 in sampletank.
Have you got any tips?
Thank you!
Regards, cgaspar

Hello Nic,
I got it! The sampletank works fine and the rules as well, just by loading the "drum remap channel 1" in note splitter. Thank you!
Do you know how could I send a note off on midibridge? I suppose that may be in event filter (in) or (out).
Regards, cgaspar

Only way to send a note off would be to use the Stream Byter to issue a note off based on a trigger message.
For example, if you wanted to choke the crash edge so that whenever you hit it it would send a note off 1/2 later to always choke the note, you could add the following rule to the above:
99 34 = 8X +C +D500 # choke crash
or what about only choking it if you hit it really hard?
99 34 65-7F = 8X +C +D500 # choke crash on hard hit
Something like that. You might need to adjust the 500 to something better, but that's the general idea.
Regards, Nic.
