Convert your regular EXS 24 drum kit into a multi-channel EXS drum kit to separate out the kick, snare, toms and cymbals, etc., etc. into different audio channels. Then you set up a multi-channel audio instrument in the Audio Mixer and load that EXS instrument you just created. This multi-channel audio instrument will play back only the first stereo output pair of your (many) multi-channel pairs. Next, create Aux audio objects to handle all multi-channel output pairs beyond the first pair, and set each Aux object's input to be a successive pair of your multi-channel audio instrument you just set up. It works like a charm and I'm able to tweak my drum sounds every which way. Trust me, you'll never go back. This implementation in Logic is not intuitive, but once you do it, you get the hang of it, and you'll never settle for your stone age MPC again. The manual gives all the details.
