Default EZ Drummer E-Drum Mapping - **Beware**

I purchased EZdrummer and the expansion pack "The Classics" to use in Reaper. The midi files worked great and sounded fantastic, and the individual drum channel separation worked perfect in Reaper. Sounded Awesome, and easy to use!

The problem is the EZDrummer Software not having a midi map.
Reaper has nothing to do with this midi mapping function, this must be done by the drum software..

**IF YOU PLAN ON HOOKING UP YOUR E-DRUM KIT TO PLAY EZ DRUMMER SOFTWARE, NO MAPPING IS IN THIS SOFTWARE**. This means if you hit the snare pad and the sound you get is the ride cymbal, that's just the way it is and you cant change it, period. This is not clearly stated on any of their videos that promote EZ Drummer.

I just spent $247 this week for software I cant use and I want to warn other Reaper users of the issue. ToonTrack told me I get what I get and to purchase Superior Drummer which does have Midi Mapping for an additional $200.
Other Drum Software that does support midi mapping: BFG, Addictive Drums, and Steven Slate are some.
