Nord Drum 2 - slave to Electribe ESX SD?

Post by a_wilsonator »

I’m thinking about getting the Nord Drum 2 and I won’t be able to return it (geography) so I’m trying to figure out now if it can be sequenced effectively with my Electribe ESX SD (the red one).

The Nord manual says it can be “controlled on one (Global) MIDI Channel, the sound from the six Nord Drum 2 channels will respond to six separate MIDI notes… channels 1 to 6 are assigned to MIDI note numbers: 60, 62, 64, 65, 67 and 69.”

The Korg manual lists the 13 drum keys (all on MIDI channel 10) with corresponding notes (Drum1 - C2; Drum2 - D2; etc).
I can change the 13 ESX drum key note assignments easily but does anyone know if/how they will correspond to the six Nord Drum 2 note numbers?

(The 2 ESX keyboard parts are on channels 1 and 2 and correspond monophonically to a synced keyboard/synth nicely.)

Cheers
