Just a thought, other wise a lot of us have to buy Superior Drummer by Toontracks which is not cool when we invest so much with BIAB,

Hope this will be possible in the very near future,

I do this in my sequencer with MIDI drums all the time.

And with good sound modules, the MIDI drums sound about 95% as good as acoustic (and remember millions of top40 hits use MIDI drums in the first place) and after re-mix they sound better than Real Drums.

I can put my Kick drum on a different synth with no reverb for a nice thump, the snare on another with a little extra reverb for a nice tail, and treat everything like I want it.

I can change a cymbal to a cowbell, a tambourine to a shaker, move rolls around, get rid of unwanted rolls and do millions of things not available with Real Tracks.

I use RTs when they do the job better and I use MIDI tracks when they do the job better.

Just because you have a new, different tool, there is no reason to quit using the old one. A crescent wrench will work as a hammer, but when you buy that new crescent wrench, don't throw out the hammer, it still does what it does better than the wrench.
