This is what I do. The blend feature is awesome, but more often then not I need the creative control over the sounds separately.
Whenever I do a drum session, I have the drummer (or myself if I know the drummer won't want to do it) play a bunch of hits...loud and quiet on all the drums. Then I make 2 Gog files for each drum....one of the close mic and one with just the room mics.
This way I generally sound replace with the drummers actual snare....or if I do use another random snare sample..I'll blend the room samples back in with it so it sort of sounds like it was in the same room.
