MFX Track Doorman would be just the ticket - if it were 64-bit.  (I haven't tried the 32-bit version in X2 to see if it might sneak through.)  Read all about the developer's (Markleford) recent frustration here.
 
It's possible to limit recorded note ranges using a virtual MIDI cable (LoopBe).  The MIDI track with the MIDI Event Filter outputs to the VMC, and a second MIDI track picks up the VMC as input to record only the limited note range.  Unfortunately, that's two MIDI tracks per-drum (plus a synth / audio).  You may be able to reduce that count with MIDI Channelization.  Either way, there's some serious setup involved for a template.
 
With a custom (limited range) drum map, all of the notes are still recorded.  The only advantage is that the 'unmapped' notes - above and below the note range - are pushed below the defined note range.  That makes for easier editing & deletion, or remapping out-of-range input inside the limits.

Thanks for lawajava for your help through pm.

He had mentioned in another post that he separated tracks like I do and I contacted him by pm to find out how he does it.
The simple way that was too obvious to me was to have each pad transmit on a separate midi channel, such as snare, kick, hat and I'm transmitting all the toms on the same channel. Using specific midi channels from the drum set and only allowing a specific channel on each midi track input, I am able to filter just those notes to the midi track.

Thanks all for your help and suggestions!

Hmmm... sounds familiar.

Thanks! That's how I did it before but I have a solution that is not x86 or x64-centric.

I just noticed your post earlier, I must have scrolled by that without noticing it.
Thank you.

Btw, to clarify, I'm transmitting each pad or set of pads on different channels based on their classification such snare pad & rim, tom pads and rims.
