How do you change the "root note" on the ATOM?

Seems the default is from C to C...along with the transpose up/down pads. How can I change it to G to G, for instance?.... without complicated re-mapping, etc?

Simple. Select the track you have ATOM on and open the inspector. Use the transpose function. e.g. if you set that to 2 the ATOM pads now play from D to D

yes that works, but only transposes the track. It does not change what notes are actually recorded. I guess you could just bounce the track afterwards...?

Or once you are happy with all the midi data, you then edit the midi and put it all up 2 semitones permanently and then remove the transpose option in the inspector.

I agree though a nice feature might be to be able to transpose directly from ATOM and then the track would be recording the right data straight away.

yes...that and/or being able to transpose up in increments vs just octaves. Thx for the great answers.

It's a mystery to me why this setting is not standard on all drum pads !

When I receive my Atom the first thing I am going to try is this :

I found out that the learn function in Superior Drummer 3 is all I need !
Just choose the drum I want then click the learn button !
Hit the pad I want !
Repeat for every pad !
Save as a preset in Superior Drummer 3 !
Done !
