Mic channel translation

As well as with Hit types (articulations), there are also differences in the
mic channel structures between Toontrack’s sounds and those of BFD. This
is because the Toontrack format does not share all the mic channel types
possessed by BFD libraries. We have tried to maintain a logical structure to
the channel conversion: the methods used are described below.

When there is no directly corresponding channel, but a suitable substitute
exists, the substitute is remapped. Remapped channels are shown in

green

.

When there is no directly corresponding channel, and no suitable substitute
exists, it is left empty in the converted sounds. These cases are shown in

red

.
