Started working in drums with Greg tonight, no idea where this is going but just going to piece the parts as they come. Challenges with the midi and sonar and Alesis control pad. Seems like it is hard to get a decent flam or bouncing stick sound. Trying different sensitivity settings, thresholds, etc. Still not happy, but I was able to  mess with the midi manually and get some timing issues worked out by quantizing some measures and leaving the measures with the rolls untouched. Gave it some natural feel in places.
