Hi Erich,
This depends on how you map the drumpad.
If you remap the kick to note=1 (you don't have to remap if the the drumpad sends note=1), it's in fact quite easy:
Filling notes ("stretching") is restricted to the keyboard area, default being 88-keyboard = midi 21-108).
When not using voices, everything defaults to voice=1.
If you want to use the drumpad sounds on all voices you want switch to (which I do), you can use voice=0 (the FX-track) for these notes.
When you do that, drumpad will become an effect meaning it overrides the notes in your selected voice for that note=pad only, the FX track never fills notes but can override particular notes/keys in voices.
I'm pretty sure it worked that way even before 2019, anyway the FX channel (voice=0) was working already like this when the drumpad option was introduced - I used to reprogram my drumpad to channel=1.
The way you define it makes you have to switch voices to hear sounds either from pads or keys, which I don't think is your intention :-)
..and yes, I got this working from digging the docs but it's complicated because of the many options / variations ..
Hope this helps you going..., Noek.
