Effective ways to automate mutes of Drumcomputer

Post by baseinstinct » Sat Jan 29, 2022 5:10 am

If you do 8-track automation via a single clip, you end up having to create a clip for every combination of mutes and solos you are possibly going to use, which is too much effort.
How to set this up in simple way?

Is that something like 8 tracks, sending midi to the drum instrument track? This would do for control via midi. Any way to have those 8 tracks send automation to the drum track?

Audio could - even preferably - go to a single out.

With Battery - that's explained for example here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C74ty7w26jY
but I would like Drum Computer plays its onboard patterns.

Thanks
