Hi All, I'm not a drummer. I've found loops and samples that I like for my genre but with time stretching and not being able to stem split my loops (older macbook), it takes a long time to program the drums from the loops into MIDI and then use the samples that I like. The loops are great for quick demo but not for the final production. If it was simply just replacing a kick that would be easy but I need to do all the cymbals and everything. Is there a way to speed this process up or a place that has great midi packs that I could use with my samples? Using Logic Pro.

i'm doing the mix project for MP101. I am using raw vocals from my song that hs been prodcued already and recreating it as an acoustic mix (4 acoustics, 1 Lead Vocal). I have done a volume mix, and I've completed vocal dynamic gain staging. The problem before even getting to using compression / limiing etc, is that the key change after the bridge for th exit chorus is a bit of a belter. She's end nearly end of range in her vocals, but very consistent. It sounds "loud" but it isnt peaking at -14 dbs in the master bus just like the earlier choruses. Shes stepped away from ht emic, I guess. I cannot get it to it nicer into the mix now and it seems too different to the rest of the sections, louder (her effort/performance), but objectively quieter roughly same as other sectionsm- but just seems to drop lower than the other sections. are there any specific elements and techniques i need to consider for key changes when gain staging vocal dynamics and volume mixing - i did the volume mix first (as per videos) but I think ding vocals first might feel right for me - i guess it doesn matter? original production here: https://s.disco.ac/kmpgoyoisdgm and my mix is attached (eek, its bad - lol) thanks for any help
