BeatCodex - drum MIDI mapping and translation for virtual drum libraries
Drum MIDI mapping that survives kit changes.
BeatCodex is a drum MIDI mapping and translation tool that helps you convert MIDI drum parts across virtual drum libraries, Kontakt drum mapping targets, and DAW drum map formats.
A groove made for one drum library can fall apart in another: kicks become toms, hi-hats become crashes, and articulations disappear. BeatCodex fixes the drum articulation mapping layer.
MIDI-only. No drum sounds. Works with your existing drum instruments and samplers.
Current BeatCodex plugin build

Workflow
One groove. Multiple libraries. Less drum MIDI remapping.
Drum MIDI often breaks when moved between libraries because notes and articulations do not match. BeatCodex fixes the virtual drum library mapping layer so your rhythm can survive kit changes.

FAQ
A few quick answers about drum MIDI mapping.
Does BeatCodex make drum sounds?
No. BeatCodex is MIDI-only. You still use your own drum sampler, virtual instrument, or drum library.
Is BeatCodex a drum loop pack?
No. BeatCodex helps drum MIDI work across different libraries and DAW map formats. It is designed for mapping, translation, editing, and workflow control.
Why are there only a few maps?
BeatCodex is in early public validation. The first maps are intentionally limited so they can be tested, corrected, and expanded with user feedback.
Are the DAW exports production-ready?
They are early-access exports being validated with users. Use them, test them, and report corrections if your DAW or library behaves differently.
