I’d like to replicate this groove to some degree (let’s focus on the first few bars):

The drummer uses strong stick hits in one hand, and softer brush hits in the other hand. I have a kit (Americana) that has brushes, but for the life of me I can’t seem to have regular hits and brushes at the same time. If I switch the Floor tom in this case to brushes, stick hits become impossible to add.
Am I missing something?
If this is not possible the easy way, can I just put samples of the regular Floor tom to the Rack tom for example (without mapping by hand all the different hit strengths and what not)?
