Explicit-- Can I ask what you mean by your "tools?"

When I got my 500 it already had a "TOOL" folder.
Its pretty much a folder with other folders that are programs filled with drums.

For example I got a folder within the "TOOL" folder and it is labeled "Snares 1" and its a program with nothing but snares.

I like these folders so this way I can search for the right Snare or Kick or Hi Hat...

I have like 4 folders of each thing like Snares, Kicks, Hi Hats, Cymbals....

True that. Because u have to program ur drums everytime before u start creating, it gets a kinda borring. So I try to do it just a lil bit different everytime, keep trying new shit, cuz I hate to do the same thing I did yesterday.
