Not sure if this will help but a lot of people don't know what the little
"eighth note +" thing does on the far right of the MIDI selector does when you are
looking at the Drumkit View of the kit in Session Drummer.
When you click on that icon, it puts the pattern that you have currently selected (one of the patterns A-G)
into a buffer that you can drop into the SD track
Load up session drummer
Load yer kit/pattern
click and drag on the eighth note icon and you can drop the pattern into the Session Drummer track and edit it in the piano roll view
The clip can be extended by dragging it's edges and if you want to change the pattern (add a drum pickup - whatever) you just make a copy of the clip and put it there
and just edit the notes in the measure under review.
Then - when you hit Stop on the SD transport - and play on the song transport - SD will just play the
midi notes (drum info) in that track as the tune rolls by. I think this is what you want
- but not being you - I'm not really sure
Maybe this helps
