Hi guys,
Thought I would add another little "secret" in case you are wondering how you can actually hear three sticks in the drum beat. (and how you can hear more than one drum in a drum line). For the sticks, you use 3 staves. Since there is only one stick sound, you use the piano roll and edit "as performed" only. On the first staff, set the attack one click ahead of the beat, the middle staff right on the beat, and the third staff one click after the beat. That way, you can hear all three stick notes rather than just one loud one. The same applies to drum notes, although you use 2 different snare sounds and 2 different bass drum sounds. That makes it sound like an entire drum line (although I didn't do that in this piece because it was enough with just the 2 different snares and basses). I may change that later, though in order to get a fuller drum line sound at the beginning and end.
