(You maybe already knew this but it gives you way more power do it that way.)

I have used Cubase and Toontrack for years, along with some Slate Trigger samples, depending...

No, I wasn't aware Carl, thanks for this. I am learning step by step with all this stuff as I go along so really appreciate the input. At lunch time I picked up a Roland TD-1 kit from our local music supply. I will begin setting up my room for it tonight and hope to have it together by the weekend.
