Default EZ/Superior Drummer question

So I'm still pretty new to SD. About a month ago I created a new project. I created a new instrument track for Superior Drummer -- a single, stereo track -- and put all my grooves for the song on that track. Foolish me now realizes I should have instead let SD use multiple tracks, one for each piece of the drum set. And now what I'd like to do is change velocities, snare sounds, etc on the drum part. I know I can edit the midi manually,but here's my question: is there a way (either by a macro or a script I can download) that I can take that stereo drum track and extract it to multiple tracks so I can do the edits? Or am I going to have to go back to Superior Drummer and start from scratch?

-- select the MIDI clip
-- right-click >> Item processing, select "Explode MIDI by note row (pitch)

[the other Explode does it by MIDI channel]

I personally do not use DarkStar's method, because I like to keep the MIDI all in one track.

Instead, you can build multi-channel routing (if I remember correctly, from the plugin window). You need to have EZ/SD in mutlichannel output mode. Then you will have faders (track channels) for each output from EZ/SD, but your MIDI will stay all together on one track, nice and tidy.

That's how I roll.

But DS is right, if you want just the parts to be separate then that works.

Wow...thank you! This is way easier than it should be.
