Reply to Basic Logic Pro Questions

New to Logic Pro 9 and having been on FL years and years ago, I have a question regarding the beat-making process...just the drums.

So I load up an instrument, say the Ultrabeat drum machine, and pick a kick sample I want to play. I adjust some parameters and then go into the piano roll and place the kick where I want (4 on the floor). Ok, so now I want to add so claps. Well I can either add the claps inside the exact same Ultrabeat channel strip, or I can create a new strip and rename it "claps." The latter is what I'd like to do, but my question is, when I do this to add in my claps, I open a new piano roll, I cannot see the kicks I previously created. Visually seeing where the kicks are would make layering a drum track pretty easy as in FL. Is there a way to see where the kicks are while I add in the claps while in another channel strip?
