If you choose 6 you will only have 3 beats per measure. The 4th beat
will be greyed out. If you choose 4 there will be 2 beats per
measure, the 3rd and 4th will be greyed out. If you choose 2 there
will be 1 beat per measure, the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th will be greyed out.
If you play the pattern the greyed out beats are not played.

That creates the note separation. 4 means quarter notes, 8 is eighth
notes, etc. 4T is quarter note triplets, 8T is eighth note triplets,
etc...

If that doesn't help you then you could try using rosegarden and
editing midi drum tracks.
