Thanks for the graphic, Bullmoon. That helps heaps.
Now that I can see what you mean, I can reproduce it. Using the style _FUNKMED.STY, when I drag the drum track to Reaper, it's easy to see from the wav file that the first count is significantly quieter than the other counts.

I'll report this to the development team for you and I'll refer them to your posts.
I know that this is a work around, but hopefully it will allow you to solve the problem while waiting for PG Music to address it.
1) Enter into Audio Edit (#1 on the image below).
2) Select the Drums track (#2).
3) Activate the volume nodes (#3)
4) Enter three nodes as shown on the image so that the volume of beat 1 is increased and then returned to normal volume before the second drum note (#4).
(The nodes can be positioned by dragging them vertically up and down the screen.)
Note: The drums for _FUNKMED.STY are stereo. It's only necessary to adjust the volume of one channel. The second channel will update automatically.
