EZ Drummer 2 dropouts in GarageBand 6.0.5.

Before my demo ran out I was playing around with EZD2 in GarageBand version 6.0.5. Seemingly random occurrences of the drum track would drop out for a brief moment during playback (and sometimes even during recording).
I had EZD2 set to follow the host program so both tempo and playback controls were being dictated by GarageBand. My concern is over whether or not this will happen or, to put it better, whether these dropouts will occur or show up in the final mix down. Can anyone shed some light on this?

Many thanks!

Hi,

I have GarageBand 6.0.5 here on OS 10.8.5 and I have never experienced any drop-outs at all with EZdrummer 2.
What are your system specs?
Did you run a lot of other stuff at the same time?

So far my only option has been to export the project as midi file and use it as a track in GB. Don’t know why the dropouts are happening. FWIW, I used to work for apple at the genius bar (dumbest employee title EVAH!) so I’m Mac savvy.
Would love to find a reliable fix, but methinks the problem may lie in the fact that GB 6.0.5 runs inn 32 bit mode and therefore can only address so much RAM. It could be that this would not be an issue using the new version of GB, but that would break compatibility with IK Multimedia’s Amplitiube, which is a deal breaker for me. No offense to other company’s offerings for guitar emulation software, but Amplitiube is head and shoulders above all others.

Would love to hear any further suggestions/ideas.
