Just wondering how some using midi drums and BIAB do it.

In my mind (tiny,fragile,eggshell) I imagine a simplistic workflow:
1. Export a midi drum track to your daw along with your BIAB tracks.
Currently I use 100% real tracks & real drums so I would start with real drums that offer the midi file option. Seems like there are plenty of them.

2. Select a drum library from your DAW (or add ons)for the midi file (s).

3. Fiddle with the piano roll where appropriate.

Can it be that simple? at least to get started

Some questions

Can I easily export each drum track (kick,toms,ride,snare) to separate tracks?
If not, is there a workaround
I'm thinking this would be useful for volume adjustment and/or automation in the mixer.

Are you happy with the results?

Does the midi file mirror the realDrum performance one might save it from?

Its a bit of a hill to climb to get started with midi but I'll give it a go if it the payback is there.

Appreciate any comments.
