Bob,

Couple of questions regarding your reply:

1. If in RealBand you use the option to split the drum track ... if the music in that track isn't going to be split, such that you can independently change it's settings, why was this feature implemented in the first place? I'll rephrase this ... Under what circumstances would one want to split the MIDI channel without wanting to change something related to one part of the drum kit? Don't understand the idea there.

2. I've been studying the program quite a bit since Feb. I thought that I had a handle on the term Velocity. When I seen this term, it was always coupled with Volume. I'm confused now ... You are saying that Velocity doesn't refer to the same thing as Volume?

Also, could you give me an example of how I could change velocities independently from track to track?
