Please help me with workflow on Addictive Drums...

My ultimate goal: To have the audio of each drum on it's own track.
 
In my workflow, I have an instance of Addictive Drums that I work out the drums on for a song. Easy enough.
 
Then, I'd like to:
1) Split up each drum to it's own track (and overhead l/r and room perhaps) with the touch of a button
2) Do a mass bounce to track, so where each sound source/drum has it's own track. Also preferable with the touch of a button.
 
A few things I've done:
1) Tried an Addictive Drums template (.cwx), it doesn't seem to work as advertised.
2) Bounce to track.... but the level seems too low
 
Please help enlighten me to a higher drum level  Also assume that I know nothing.

Wouldn't it be easiest to have all the audio output tracks per kitpiece created already when you insert AD? Then they come automatically with one click.
IIRC, bouncing to tracks with "Tracks" as the source will create individual tracks, but I don't remember trying it with AD, though.
 
There should be no reason for the volume level to decrease during bounce. You need to work on your track level settings. Right now I don't remember any "hidden but obvious" reason for that to happen.

The benefit of being a middle aged amateur is the low number of years of frustration ahead of you.

When you insert a soft synth and select AD a dialogue pops up.
It is in there you select tracks or stereo bus.

Magic: when you feel inspired to create which in turn inspires more creation.
 
And the corollary: if magic happens inspiration might flog it to death with numerous retakes.
