any drum programming experts out there?

I love slice to MIDI, but I wanted to ask about what you just said. Say I have a drum break that I REXed, imported and sliced to MIDI. I then group the different kicks together to 1 channel and snares to another.

If I wanted to get a 909 for example under the kick that is perfectly in phase, how would I do this? In Cubase I just take the groove of the break and align hits to that grid.

You do the same as in Cubase... You just have to do it inside the midi-track. And then maybe use the quantize function... Or just re-use the midi from the REX'd midi track (then it is perfect sync - Of curse it will depend on the sample start of the 909 samples as well...)

Does this make sense?

Thanks yes..I did not see how to copy the MIDI notes only and not the whole clip with audio. Im still learning Live. If I can just copy the MIDI, thats nice because then you would just adjust the start and stop times in the drum rack filters for the 909s.

I see what you mean... When ´Rex-slicing´ a sample, just remember to export as midi also. So you have your slices but also a midifile with the exact same ´groove´ as the original file...

Then it's up to your imagination what you want to do with that ´midi-groove´. E.g. double the kick and snares etc...
