Thanks, Kent. That additional explanation is helpful. First, I think I should attempt to load a VST version of BFD3 into BIAB. If I succeed with that step, it may seem clearer how to create a custom drumkit in BFD3 using audio recordings (wav files) of my tap sounds and map them to notes on the treble clef.

This kind of project is completely new to me, so I should probably hunker down and see if I can figure it out using the manuals/help tutorials. You've laid out the essential components. If I have additional questions, I'll post them here or give Tech Support a call.

Much obliged...
