To program realistic sounding drums requires a lot of data.

This can be extremely taxing on your computers functionality.
It's fine while you are working on the drums, but if you then want to start adding plug-in fx on other instruments, plus virtual synths, your computer is going to collapse under the strain.
Therefore, most Superior users prefer to record their drums once they are settled with them, then you can freeze the drum software and free up some computer power for other tasks.
