**The Patch Map itself has nothing to do with making the sounds happen, it is just there as a convenient way for us to view and be able to select all the available banks and patches from a list. The SD2 goes into GM mode when the power switch is cycled, meaning each time you turn it on it should be ready to play any GM file, drums included.

Hi CliveR,

In your BiaB, at tha near top of the screen where the instruments are listed, what COLOR is the "Drums" lettering showing? Yellow = MIDI and would indicate drum parts being sent to the Ketron. Green means that the Drums you hear are RealDrums and have nothing to do with the MIDI stuff.

Even though you have performed the Factory Reset, an excellent idea, BTW, it may be that the Output Chords is still turned on. Visit Prefs -> OutputCh. inside BiaB and mke sure that "Output Chords?" at the top left is not checked.

If still no joy, check Prefs -> Channels and make sure that Drums are set to MIDI Channel 10 in the first column.
