Add drum display
Currently this library automatically sets the push into an isomorphic layout for playing notes. It would be nice to also get the pads to layout for playing a drum rack.
@garrensmith perfect as this is one of the things I wanted to add as well. Perhaps even integration with multiple midi devices? If r separate te music logic and reuse for implementation with other devices.
Sweet. That is cool. Let me know how I can help. I have a push and getting a akai mpd218 so I can test with those.

@garrensmith I am thinking of doing this in a way similar to how it works on Ableton Live, where you have about 16 drum positions and you can paginate by using the slider on the left. Thoughts?
Yes awesome. I think lets keep it simply for the first attempt and start with just the 16 drum positions. We can add in the slider later.
@garrensmith I made an initial play to see if I could achieve this. I noticed I would have to refactor a bit of the index.js code, perhaps break it down into 2 parts: isomorphicMode.js and drumMode.js and use each based on options passed by the lib consumer.
I have also added webpack to build dev and production (which uses babel-loader and will allow us to have a smaller footprint in package and offers future flexibility), and also for debugging locally with webpack-dev-server, which allows to quickly make changes to lib and get instant feedback with hot-module-reload.
Let me know if these steps make sense and if there is a better approach you may suggest.
Cheers
Ok great. Yes I was thinking you would have to do similar. Maybe create an examples folder with an index.html that can work with webpack-dev-server and that can have an example of using the drumMode.js. I can add an isomorhpicMode.js later. I've given you write permission to this repo. If you want you can push your code onto a branch and we can collaborate on it a bit.
