tracking beats out (faster)

you can live without it, but later down the line you might want to pick one up

It does make tracking out easier. I would pick the 8 outs up.

No tracks, you assign the pads to individual outs just like manual states.

If you seperate your samples/pads to different tracks within the same sequence then those are you tracks..

ie.
track 1 - snare
track 2 - kick
track 3 - hhat
track 4 - chhat

That would be track seperation into the 8outs, that's the way some
people seperate tracks to the 8outs..

Stereo sounds can be out'd to 1/2, 3/4, 5/6, 7/8.
