LOL!
Excellent questions, which I will answer in the order they were asked.

- Dynamic range does exist in metal, but I kill all dynamics so your ears will literally bleed while listening to my mixes. I don't need no pesky dynamics.

- Yes. Listen to the band "Attack, Attack" - they are rainbow colored metal.

- They added a splash cymbal to the Drumkit from Hell EZDrummer expansion for a reason - so you could use it to pummel unsuspecting listeners with your drum tracks of doom.

- You can. See the "Black Metal" genre - specifically Dimmu Borgir.

All in good fun man! I enjoyed responding - I got to be a smart ass, and bump the thread at the same time. That's what I call a "two-for".
I checked your sig, and I could swear I've seen pictures your studio before - Are you a member of the Sneap forum by chance? Either way, it's a cool set up you have!
Cheers! I should have my second post done tomorrow.
