SampleTank notes start at C-2, I believe (and this is in line with many other software samplers, ROMplers and synths).
I did, sort of, solve the problem. A few years ago I took my extensive collection of GM drum midi files and dropped each one individually onto a a Logic Pro instrument track. I picked a logic drum kit and saved it as a green apple loop. My assumption was that I could preview a drum beat using these green apple loops that I had saved and, if I wanted to try a different kit to play the midi file, I would just replace the kit. The first time I tried this was with the Pop Kit in Sample Tank 4. As I reported earlier, this didn't work. It did work with Battery 4 but Battery 4 does not use the GM drum format so the sounds were somewhat random. It also did not work with Studio Drummer in Kontakt. Pretty confusing. So I then went back into the original GM drum midi files and dragged one of those onto the track and replaced the default Logic kit (Socal) with the SampleTank pop kit. Worked perfectly. So I have come to the conclusion that there is something in the process of creating a green Apple loop that causes it to default to the original instrument loaded on the track and exclude other choices after the fact. I'm currently trying to find out if there's a way of disabling this.
