But what job is that, exactly? And why are new users often confused about them? Where people get confusedĪt first glance, Drum Maps appear to be the way to set up Cakewalk’s Piano Roll View (PRV) so that, when you edit a MIDI track, you can see the names of each instrument or kit piece (“Tom1”, “Tom2”, “Snare”, “Wood Block”, etc.) in your drum instrument, whether it be a dedicated drum brain, SFZ sample library, or a “drum kit” patch in your rack synthesizer.Īnd to be fair, yes, that is true: Drum Maps are used to display kit piece names in the PRV (more on that later). This long-established feature hasn’t seen much attention from the developers in recent decades because it is stable and does the job. I’m certain that the feature was added to Cakewalk very early on back in the MIDI-only sequencer days before it became “Cakewalk Pro Audio”, back in 1995.
