Hi Bandmoose, yes, what jazzmammal said is correct, if you have v2010 you should also have the latest Realband, and this would do what you need. In my case i usually use Acid Pro for my sequencing, because I'm used to it but Realband would work just as well, no need for any other sequencer. In the case of midi drums the trick is to save it as "separate drum files". As far as Ableton Live, I couldn't say, although I own a "lite" version of it but have never used it, just go with Realband.
Good luck.


Music should be part of your life
