Yes, to everything you ask Tapio.
There's a Track Group selector to change the focus to any of four sets of eight tracks - use this to ensure your drum synths MIDI track is in the active group. Then simply use the appropriate Track Select button to arm it. The VS-20 has transport buttons for Return To Project Start, Rewind, Fast Forward, Stop, Play and Record - so as you can see, you can navigate around your project, arm and record etc quite easily with just the VS-20, no need to resort to your computer's mouse or keyboard!
It's also a great tool for mixing - real faders are always easier to use than mouse-dragging, and the included BOSS guitar effects are very good too.
If you send me a PM with your e-mail address, I'll happily send you the VS-20 PDF manual so you can have a good look at its capabilities.
Hope that helps.
