No dedicated drums editor.

As for insights:

* If the clip is set to Chan. 10, it will show GM drum names instead of notes.
* In T2 (unlike T2) you can set the note length and just click for note insertion. Very convinient for editing drums (I use 1/8 beat)
* Use the line tools in different zoom levels to enter simple pattern quickly.

Here's another one:

When putting the Tracktion sampler on a track, the piano roll displays the names of the samples in the sampler (instead of notes/ GM drums).

Here's how you can use that with other plugins (clumsy but working):

1) make an "blnank" wave file (just open a wave editor and save).
2) Load the sampler filter.
3) Click 'add' and load the the blank sample you made.
4) Set the desired note (e.g. C1) make sure the highest and lowest key are the same.
5) Rename the sample inside the sampler, using the rename button.
6) Repeat steps 3-5 for every drum in your drum map.
7) save as a preset.

Now put the sampler before your drum instrument of choice. The Piano roll will show the names you chose in the T sampler (the sampler is thru, so now probs there).


Hope this helps someone.

That's a great tip!
