Tie the same step sequence pattern to 2 different synths?

I know this may sound like a strange question, here's my issue. When creating drums tracks I like Steven Slate Drums for kicks and snares but I kinda like A2 for toms and cymbals. I know I could program my entire drum track in which ever plug-in (A2 or Kontact) then copy the pattern and eliminate the parts I dont like. Ex. Use AD2 to create the track then copy the patterns to the track for Kontact/SSD then delete thekick/snares from the AD2 patterns and delete all but kicks and snares from the SSD patterns. Is there another option? I know someone with Abelton who says they can actually combine multiple synths/plug-in into the same "synth rack". Thanks for any help!

And if drum maps are too much work or you want to use some notes in more than one plug-in you could use this approach http://forum.cakewalk.com/FindPost/3207794. It is similar to what you are doing now without the copy step. No need to delete MIDI when copying or routing this way just load the drum plug-ins with the necessary kit pieces. If you prefer to continue copying clips, the copies can be linked to the original so that a change in one will change all.
