Chuck, thanks, very helpful video, I missed that somehow.
 
Funny, next thing that  follows your video on YouTube is our own Craig Anderton in early '90s presenting SR16, with lots of brown hair and teenage enthusiasm.

Except I was a 40+ year old teenager 

 
Actually,  I should have add  "and as competent as ever"

Moving notes is sth I really wanted to avoid. Anyway what would you do with midi grooves that were done for say BFD or EZD in order to play them through AD2?
 

i would invest in toontracks ezplayer pro, you can get it to load midi patterns and spit out versions to suit most formats easy as. it's pretty cool

as to moving notes, it's not that difficult moving them if you have to, control/click in the prv on whichever row will select the whole row and you can just drag them to the required position and repeat, it would be a pain if you had to move each note individually.
