LOSING MIDI NOTES WHEN BOUNCING TO AUDIO

Sometimes when I'm playing back an addictive drums track there will be hits missing and every time I try to export or even freeze the synth its missing drum hits. Please Help!

    Try increasing your MIDI buffer. Found in Prefs---->MIDI----->Playback and recording.
     
    512 should sort it for you.

    If MIDI notes overlap, this might be an issue. In general, for drum parts the MIDI note only triggers the sound, so I usually trim the length by 50% or so to avoid overlapping notes. Don't know if this will help in your case, but I've experienced what you described with other drum modules, and this fixed it.

    I used the step sequencer to lay the drums down. No overlaps.

    Just for kicks...convert it to a standard MIDI clip, cut the lengths in half, and see what happens.
