For the drum parts for my band (17 piece big band) I use the following settings: Layer 4 - slash notation (allow all other thingies in other layers). Layer 1 - cues for punches/cues for other sections (bones have rhythm "X", etc). Layer 3 - bass drum kicks. This is with the percussion line set to Drum Kit. Layer 1 cues are either Hi Tom or Hi Hat/Crash cymbal. That's enough to get the idea through to my drummer (and those who sub for him), and is all they want.
