Many drum sample libraries map their keys to the keyboard, which makes it difficult to play them on the drum pads like you would find on Maschine or an MPC. In this video tutorial, I will teach you three different ways to reassign drum pads in Cubase 10. The first two will work for any version, the third will work for Artist and Pro users only. (Sorry Elements!). You will learn to use hardware map assignments, change drum map output and use a MIDI plugin called Chorder.
