So I have Cubase SL, and I mostly do demos of music i've written, and mostly for yuks. All I have for drums/percussion is the ones that came with SL. They call it the COMPRESSOR, and as much as that is an impressive name, and saying it makes my willy feel bigger, I am left wonton(by the sound of the drums, not necessarily by the size of...)

I'm buying the Firebox package at Musicians friend. I currently have a soundblaster LIVE sound card. Should I upgrade me sound card also? If so, to what? Or will I be fine with that? My monitors go into my audio interface, so I assume what I will be hearing is what it will sound like. Does the sound card directly affect your recoridng or how it comes out?

I dont know if this is possible but maybe someone can help/.

I have drum tracks laid out the dont sound that great - I wanted to know if there is a way that I could take the snare drum track (or any track for that matter) and use that track to trigger a drum sampler such as battery - or even bfd.

If any on e know of a way to do thi splease let me know -
