Drumset that sounds like iReal Pro? (*.drm file?)
I use iReal Pro on my Android Phone to open backing tracks to jazz standards. I would like to import these to MuseScore. This is possible exporting them from iReal Pro as midi file, and then importing them in MuseScore.
But as it turns out, iReal Pro doesn't use the standard midi mapping for the drum kit. For example, Ride cymbals sound like claps, whistles and woodblocks. This sounds awful, especially in jazz where you need the cymbal.
In MuseScore, I discovered the feature to load alternative drum mappings: by selecting a drum track > notation mode > edit drumset > load...
And then opening a *.drm file.
Appearantly, drum mappings and sounds can be saved as *.drm files.
My question is: has anyone already created a *.drm file that sounds similar to the iReal Pro drums? And where can I find it?

.drm files are only mappings. There are no sounds in such files.

I know. But does someone already have the right mapping to make it sound right?

I got a successful (?) result by opening the MIDI file in MS, creating two new blank drumset staves, copying each of the "drumsets" from their instrumental staves to the drumset staves, and then deleting (or muting, if you want to be on the safe side), the instrumental stave. This plays the drum sounds.

Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately, I couldn't figure it out. When I import midi into MS, the drums are already on a stave called "drumset". (only one, not two). When I create (one, or two) new drumset lines, and copy the notes onto them, nothing changes...
