It will take me a day to get this together so hang tight,,
I use Session drummer as AD sucks at GM for me, to much work. There is a way by dragging each drum part to the place AD uses. And there is the GM mode thing but I ended up with a lot of missing parts.
One other solution is to split the original drum tack into parts.
Kick
Snare
Hi Hat
Ride
Toms
Percusion.
Then use TTS-1 for some stuff and AD or SD for the most important.
After all for live performance it's not the same as making a hit record.
I actually use the TTS-1 Kick because of all the kicks I've tried it comes through perfectly the way I like it in a PA system. It has a nice low end as well as a mid-range tick.
Most of the downloads play the way they should with TTS-1.
So I start there and then change things to better synths as I go.
Mostly I mute most of the weezie stuff.
Solo and label each part.
Sometimes changing a terrible sounding guitar part into a piano makes it usable too.
One thing I also do is add real bass.
If I use midi then the SI Jazz Bass which I've tweeked a bit.
