Depending on the complexity of your material, there's two options to do
this:
- Select all your drumparts and do a "Demix by Note Pitch". That would
result in separate tracks all only playing one instrument. Not exactly a
comfortable solution as it creates a new track not only for each note (which
is what one would expect) but for each part as well (can't get more
stupid...). I recommend copying your original parts and glueing them
together, then execute the function.
- Edit your EXS patch making use of the new (well, that's a 5.2+ feature)
individual outs and send them to their own audio (err well, aux) objects.

Or, 3rd option, open a Matrix window for the sequence, select all, 
shift-click on the left-hand keyboard on the note you want to bounce 
to deselect it, and use the mute tool to mute the selected notes. 
Bounce, use mute tool again to unmute all muted notes, select all, 
shift-click to deselect the next note, ute selected notes, etc. 
Works pretty fast, really.

wow, that is so stupid.... i cant belive that a sampler as good as 
EXS wont have a simple option as mute\SOLO....well, no more drums on 
EXS for me. how much does battery cost...?;-)

:)

thanks anyway...:) not U'r fault:)

OK, I know there's a way to quickly jump through instruments' settings and
the EXS24's instruments themselves, but is there any way to quickly jump
through PROG patches in various VST instruments? This is driving me crazy. A
good example is the free VST synth called Crystal. It's painful to have to
click and drag all the time. Seems like I could create an environment button
that moves to the next patch by controlling some kind of program change, or
am I way off base here? Thanks. -Jer

This is actually easy to do. Open up your matrix view of the track. Enable
solo, and select only the samples you want to trigger (click on the
corresponding key to the drum sound you want to bounce). In this view you
can also select all the sounds you don't want to trigger and press M which
mutes all selected items nondestructively (in other words they can be
unmuted). -Jer

Create a new fader, set its out-definition to "Program" and cable it 
into the VSTi's channel strip.

Thnaks, but its not working for me...

I select all the notes i want to mute, and press M, but nothing 
happens, nothing is muted.

When you say "Enable solo", do you mean clicking the solo button on 
the Transport bar, right? or is it something else?

(thanks' again:)

Beautiful. Thanks. I knew it had to be relatively simple.

You key commands must be messed up. You can use the "M" tool on the left and
do it with mouse... Jer
