Mapping General MIDI 1 Percussion to Musescore Drum Set sounds

[@ricardoalmeida986]

Basically are 6 toms by General Midi instruments on a drums. Or 5 toms, 4 or 3 toms.
41- Low Floor Tom -> Tom 6
43- High Floor Tom (Very Low Tom) -> Tom 5
45- Low Tom -> Tom 4
47- Mid Tom ( Low Mid Tom) -> Tom 3
48- High Tom ( High Mid Tom) -> Tom 2
50- High Floor Tom -> Tom 1
With 5 tom toms on drumset:
50- High Floor Tom -> Tom 1
48- High Tom -> Tom 2
47- Mid Tom -> Tom 3
45- Low (Floor)Tom -> Tom 4
43- Very Low Tom -> Tom 5
With 4 toms on drumkit:
43- Tom 4
45- Tom 3
48- Tom 2
50 - Tom 1
And 3 toms on drumset.
50- Tom 1-> High Tom
47- Tom 2 -> Mid Tom
43- Tom 3 -> Low (Floor)Tom

This was new to me. Thank you for your contribution to this study! I've never seen a set of 5 toms like that, where the leftmost one is a floor tom.There is also something strange about the set of four. 🥁

Thank you, really useful... I'm trying to enrich this map by adding new sound in blank note number... but no way... I understand this can be done outside Musescore, maybe in Polyphone, but it is very hard

[@jounisatopaa]

Thanks! I didn't understand what you were trying to do, but good luck with the effort! ☺

@@jounisatopaa what about if I want to add a new sample (I made by myself) in the last position (note number), say, 88?

[@jounisatopaa]

@@tuizza I am sorry, but I don’t know how to create your own soundfonts. I have only heard that it is possible. General MIDI version 1 only knows percussion sounds 25-87 (sounds 25 and 26 are missing from Musescore standard soundfonts). General MIDI version 2 knows more. Instead of soundfonts, it is also possible to use VST3-plugins in Musescore. With DAW software, you can also insert any sounds to your own songs.
