say you want your drums on tr1, snares on tr2, and hi hat on tr3. here's how you'd do it:

record your drums on tr1, just lay them down like you did before.

now, when your ready for your snares, before you press record...hit sequence and then track(right beside sequence button). move the cursor from "TRACK 01" to "TRACK 02".that will then switch your beat from tr1 to tr2. then you'll be able to lay down your snares on tr2, not tr1 where your drums are at.

when you get your drums layed down on tr1, snares on tr2, hit sequence and then track again. switch the cursor to tr3 to lay down your hi hats. after you do this, say you want your drums(which are on tr1) muted. just hit "TRACK MUTE", and hit pad1. then, every track you have will play except for your drums on tr1.

THERE! lmao

hope you got it now man!
