DMD, Sampler or Alchemy. One note triggers three samples each w its own fader.

[Burn Witch Burn]

Hi folks, I want to build a drum machine within Logic with either Drum Machine Designer, Sampler or Alchemy.  Please let me know the best way to accomplish the following:

Each articulation will have three variations regarding mic positioning.  

SnareSidestick_1a_CloseMic.wav
SnareSidestick_1b_OvHdMic.wav
SnareSidestick_1c_RoomMic.wav

On the piano roll, I'd like to just write one note, let's say C2.  It will trigger all three samples, but I'd like to have all three samples on different faders (to mix the ambient mics from song to song).  

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

It's fairly easy in Drum Machine Designer: drag your samples to the bottom of the track headers and choose Drum Machine Designer then each sample will be assigned a cell in DMD and each cell has its own channel strip in the Mixer. 

All that's left to do is adjust the input notes for the cell so that all 3 snares have the same input note, here "D1":

Thank you David.  Excellent.  Quick and easy.   

Would it be possible to implement a "Round Robin" function to this?

For Round Robin you'd have to use Sampler:
