Thanks for the compliments...
I did a 'save as' and deleted the original project. I really need the midi file that was recorded in Sonar. I had a drummer play using a Octapad and EZD2 and thought I was happy. For some reason instead of freezing the track, I bounced it down to audio. A couple of weeks later I did the 'save as' and deleted the project. All 3 things were mistakes. No big deal. The drummer is coming over tonight and we will do them again. It's a simple drum part...It won't take much to fix this.

I thought I may be able to use Melodyne ARA or Sonar to convert the audio to midi, but I can't seem to do it.
 
Here is a link to the drums on soundcloud. These were played by Randy Treadway. I added the ride cymbal later.

Hi Clint,
 
I got to this sooner than I thought, and the news isn't good I'm afraid.
 
What I was hoping for was that Melodyne editor would separate the different elements out, but it doesn't seem to work like that.
 
It does separate some stuff, but, for some reason, the hi-hat is on the same line as the kick, so I am unable to manipulate the hi-hat on its own.
 
Sorry about that... It was just a hunch, and I wanted to test it out.
 
I don't know anything about SPlat's drum replacer as I haven't used it yet.
 
cheers

Drum replacer seems halfway done to me. It will probably be great someday, but for now it's pretty easy to switch out drums using EZ Drummer 2 or Addictive Drums 2. I guess the point of it is for loops.
