Map Drum Kit Designer to external hardware controllers

Drum Kit Designer is compatible with the General MIDI (GM) standard. You can also choose GM+, which maps the keyboard ModWheel for Hi-Hat control. This means that you can use the keyboard ModWheel to adjust the degree to which the Hi-Hat opens and closes during the drum performance.

Drum Kit Designer is also compatible with the V-Drum standard.
