Novation drumstation

I made a thing to make accessing the drumstation’s effects as easy as superdirt ones:

-- 808 mappings for novation drumstation

import Data.Maybe

import qualified Data.Map.Strict as Map

let drums = (subtract 60 <$>) <$> [("bd", 36),
                                   ("rs", 37),
                                   ("sd", 38),
                                   ("sn", 38),
                                   ("cp", 39),
                                   ("lt", 41),

Hey Alex, would it be easy to adapt to other drum machines ?
TR-08 owner here, (and ever-lusting for an Electron Analog Rytm ^^), I’ve already done some super simple MIDI mapping to make it easier to use, but what you’ve done here seems much more intuitive and fun !

MIDI implementation always seems so different between different instruments… But looking at the tr-08 implementation chart, I see it has separate controls for different drums, similar to the drumstation… So I think it’d be straightforward to copy the numbers across https://www.roland.com/uk/support/by_product/tr-08/owners_manuals/2be349fb-d601-4526-bd80-5b8c67fc0001/
