I can see you are a drum solo fanatic, just like me.

I see what you mean. You are talking about Chord Options and Part Marks.

I used to make some crazy drum solos too. With Part Marker, you can choose a style with multiple substyles. So, instead of only blue (a) and green (b), you can have blue, green, pink (c), and yellow (d), make drum solo more sophisticated.

And I also tried to play with breaks in Chord Options.

One dot, is rests, means mute.

Two dots, is shots, means play one beat, then cut to mute.

Three dots, is holds, means play one beat, and sustain.

So, with a simple C chord, I have a bunch of stuff to mix and match.

C.d
C.bd
C..d
C..bd
C...d
C...bd

With a little bass line mixed with a drum solo, the possibilites are endless.

This is a very exciting technique you brought up. I should definitely apply more of this in my future productions.
