Key Map file reference?

Which Module?

EFNOTE 3/5 MIDI Mapping follows the GM Standard as do a number of Modules from other Brands…including Alesis,Roland.
The only difference is the EFNOTE has (2) Triple (3) Zone Crashes with additional MIDI assignment for the Bell… a large number of drum Modules do not have Triple (3) Zone Crashes…including High End Roland etc and the EFNOTE Module does not send a Note for the Splash like some modules do

You can load one of the Roland Maps from TD-17 thru TD-50X (same Map…difference is the Aux Inputs/Expansion) and use the MIDI learn or assign the Bell MIDI Note manually then save/name the map as an EFNOTE Map.
I created one with the updated Hi hat Mapping for Dark Farm and attached in this Topic

The advantage of having multiple GM Maps from different Brands is the Cymbal Sizes.
I have noticed different “Tweaks” in the map itself for different cymbal models,probably done during the creation of the map if there was a physical kit available.
You can also create a MIDI Map from scratch using MIDI Learn Feature in BFD…

EFOTE Reference Guide (MIDI Map pg 12)
Crash 1 Bell - 54
Crash 2 Bell - 56
Crash 3 - Dual Zone

Examples of Expansions/Libraries with Triple Zone (3) Zone Crashes (Bell - Articulation)
BFD3 Core Library…Oblivion…Crush…Sabian Digital Vault…Zildjian Digital Vault which was discontinued (License not renewed by Zildjian…now part of the Alchem-E E-Vault Module/Kit) and others…

You can compare EFNOTE and Roland side by side…
