Using MIDI drum grooves intended for use with one manufacturer's products can be a challenge, as VST drum instruments offer an ever-expanding range of drums and articulations, not all of which follow the General MIDI standard. Each manufacturer has their own way of mapping these extra articulations, but fortunately, Cubase has a simple way of translating between these different systems built-in.

If you want drum maps for Cubase, but don't want the hassle of setting them up, you can download my Cubase drums maps for the Kontakt drum kits in Komplete or for the EZX expansions I have from https://www.buymeacoffee.com/finishyo...
