I've split them into bassdrum, snare, overheads and room wave files. works really great.

as for the plugin, I'm using Reaper, and the grooves don't really sync with the DAW as they should do. also I'm under the impression that when the midi track is armed to record the plugin sometime causes crackles. love the drum sound though!!

you ever sort that out? I'm looking for a new drum sound and haven't used Kontakt in Reaper, would love to avoid a convoluted plugin headache

The Kurt Ballou drums work perfectly fine with Kontakt in Reaper, easy to set up multi outputs.
The thing that doesn’t work is using the grooves (midi patterns) of the plug-in directly as they won’t start in sync with Reaper, but you can easily export those files to your Reaper track so they line up with everything else. It’s just a little more work than skipping through the grooves and only export the ones you want to work with.
