I use SSD 3.5, and my way to create drum loops nowadays is writing them with the midi editor in Cubase. That's the method that works for me. However you could get some midi loops and import them into your project as SJ said....

I use SSD, and it contains drum loops I can just drag and drop into logic.
Recently I have started doing something extremely cool: I use Logic's "drummer" which is a (really nice) virtual drummer software, but instead of the included drum sounds I use SSD (link). Results are better than anything I have tried so far. It's also good because drum programming has always been difficult for me (usually the thing that stops my creative flow), and now its a breeze. Let's just hope not too many others will discover this trick, or we'll all end up sounding the same. Oops I think I have said too much now  QUOTE (Todd Simpson @ Sep 2 2014, 04:47 PM)  Also, SSD lets you STACK DRUM SOUNDS!!!!! A KILLER feature that sadly EZ drummer does not allow. So you can stack four killer snare drums for a SUPER SNARE!!  Cool, I hadn't thought of that! This post has been edited by Kristofer Dahl: Sep 2 2014, 10:28 PM
Reason for edit: changed SSL to SSD

I think the only ways of doing it are
1. use a mdi controller such as a keyboard or electronic drum kit 2. edit pre-existing samples (ez drummer as you know has these). 3. pencil them in a note at a time I typically default to #2 since it's easier to paste em together and just edit wasn't fit. I watched a video on EZDrummer2 which has a beautiful new search feature for searching grooves based on a beat you tap - which I think would greatly speed up the time to implement #2. But that's EZ drummer - not SSD. However, if SSD can import MIDI, then you can export anything you author in EZD to MIDI, then import to SD? just a thought(s). -------------------- The more I practice, the more I wish I had time to practice!

There is one additional solution as well if you like to use pre-made midi grooves but its not very cost effective
 * Ezplayer : http://www.toontrack.com/product/ezplayer-pro/ This is basically a midi grooves organizer and looks and works similar to what you get with Ezdrummer. You can easily assign it to play through the Steven Slate Drums track and you'll be able to preview all the grooves etc just like you would in Ezdrummer software and than drag n drop into the timeline to use them or edit the midi tracks (ezplayer pro comes with some built in grooves). But for this to work, you'd might need to find some additional midi drum grooves. Either paid ones like these : http://www.toontrack.com/product-category/midipacks/ ... or free ones like these : http://groovemonkee.com/pages/free-midi-loops In theory, ezplayer should allow you to accommodate most of midi format vs drum mapping for it to work well with Steven Slate Drums. -------------------- For GMC support please email support (at) guitarmasterclass.net

Sadly, this is a MAC ONLY thing, and I think CRSN is on PC.
LOGIC X is a killer Daw and the "AI" drummer is great and then you can just replace the sounds with SSD after the virtual drummer whips up some beats!!QUOTE (Kristofer Dahl @ Sep 2 2014, 04:45 PM) I use SSD, and it contains drum loops I can just drag and drop into logic.
