A few days ago I asked to insert softsynth Addictive Drums. To my surprise, it came up with 15 tracks, ten of which were individual synth tracks for each drum. OK. Really powerful. The tracks were named only for the drum: snare, kick Tom 1 etc.
 
So just now I added AD2 into an new project....2 tracks. I have no idea what I did.
 
So I then tried again and asked to show all Stereo outputs. So now we are back...with 11 tracks. No bus. Not 15. And instead of "Kick" Snare" etc, they are called names like Addictive Drums 2 1 Addictive Drums 2 1 Bus: Stereo   Addictive Drums 2 1 Flexi  2/Flexi  3: Stereo...these are useless to me unless I rename every one, every time I start a new project, cause they all show as "Addictive Drums"
 
I _liked_ the way it happened before. It was a surprise to see so many tracks, but each track was clearly labelled ....now what?
 
 
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH
 
I just want to write friggin music!

This screen will change how it inserts. In the above, it creates  midi source and 15 mono tracks and a folder.
 
If you click on "Simple Instrument track" instead, then you'll get the midi and just the stereo track combined.

OK. The thing is that before I just inserted the synth and got the 15 tracks all correctly labelled...kick, tom1 etc. No action by me. Now it's different. I get the two tracks.
 
And yeah I tried "all synth outputs audio: mono and yeah that gave me back MOST of my former tracks. BUT not the Bus track I had before and the names are not "kick" "snare" "tom 1" etc but are now long-winded "addictive Drums" stuff that is useless in the Track Pain. All I see is "addictive Drums". Before I saw "kick", "Tom 1"

When you get it set up the way you want it, perhaps by renaming the tracks so they make sense to you, save it as a track template.  Then when you want to insert AD into a project, insert your AD track template.

OK. Yeah. Good idea. Thank you. Seriously. I will look into that, because it means I can easily get it in another project.
 
I just can't understand why it changed.
