DAW roland TD9 confusion

Hi everyone,

I just picked up a TD9 kit and I am a bit perplexed about something.

IF I only want to use the TD9's sound banks to record drum tracks in Logic 9, can't I just use the Mono line out jack directly to my m-audio fast track guitar line in? Then use the m audio's headphone jack for monitoring?

People have told me I need a Midi box and cable's and have to use the TD9's midi in and out.
If i'm not using Superior drummer or ezdrummer for the VST's then why use Midi?

I will not be able to create individual tracks for kick/snare/toms/cymbals i get that. But I can control the drum mix from the td9. (Volume/mix/Eq) then lay down the drums all in one track.

That should work just fine right?

Thanks!
 
Nevermind. Bought the 1/4 cable today plugged it in, works perfect. No lag, I can do a test run and determine if any of the pads nees more or less volume in the mix and eq. Awesome stuff.
