So... what is it that you want? Can you describe something that "does" triplets? At this point I have absolutely no idea what you're looking for. Seriously. Not a clue. Please describe a feature that "does triplets" and explain why you need it. I'm lost.

Also, you mention the click track. Do you know that you can customize your metronome click to do pretty much any pattern you want?

You joke about posting the math tutorial, but there's no math in knowing the names of the locations of triplets and other notes. That's just one of the essentials of working with a DAW. Those numbers are the places where triplets occur. Are you saying you just need a line to guide you? Maybe I need to look at the drum editor. I just don't know anything about it, having never programmed drums in that window. Is it really that much harder to use than the other windows?

Seriously, I'd like to see what it is that you want. Not having trouble with triplets, I simply am not able to visualize whatever it is that you're searching for. Would you draw it or describe it or something so I'll know? Maybe you can find a screenshot from another application to show us what you're talking about. It may be a great thing to have! Who knows?

I believe the drum editor doesn't subdivide to triplets.
I think it will only go to a 16th note.
I may be wrong....I only dicked around with the drum editor once, recently.
I quickly found it too limited to work with so I didn't explore the ins and outs of it.

you are right! it does NOT!

Would love it if this feature would be part of it! Or aren't drummers allowed to play triplets? :lol:
