Here's a summary of steps to go through :
1) How to insert a soft synth (Session Drummer) with simple midi track
2) Using the Step Sequencer to program drum hits.
All of the above tutorial can be found at Cakewalk's Youtube channel or by others.
Here is a little secret that confused beginners in Step Sequencer - when you copy a Step Sequencer clip to another location, it is defaulted to 'link' pattern (to where it's copied from). It's very common to create a basic pattern, copy it elsewhere and edit a variation of the pattern. If you do this, you will end up with 2 similar drum patterns, as they are linked. In order to prevent this, after copying a Step Sequencer clip, you will need to right-click and select Unlink Step Sequencer Clips.
Another way to input notes to Session Drummer is to use the Piano Roll View (PRV) where you input notes with your mouse click since you don't have a midi controller to record hits.
