    There’ve been multiple forum threads asking (and answering) this question.
    Also, at least one FAQ regarding the percussion. https://www.toontrack.com/faq/how-do-i-trigger-the-ezdrummer-2-percussion/

    In Logic Pro X (or any other DAW host), the Piano Roll Editor, the Score Editor or the Musical Typing window would reveal the following:
    Db-2 is the “One Shots” (handclaps, etc)
    D-2 is the Shaker(s)
    Eb-2 is the Tamborine

    This does not explain how to add (for example) a cowbell to a track

    The recommended FAQ refers to triggering the percussion with a MIDI controller or step programming in a piano editor, etc.
    which was the question posted originally.

    With regards to your comment, one has to assume that you are referring to adding percussion
    to MIDI in the EZD2 song track using only the tools within EZDrummer2.

    Pages 27-28 of the EZDrummer2 Operation Manual states:
    When your song needs that extra rhythmic touch, adding percussion can do just the trick.
    In Edit Play Style, you have three percussion pads: One Shot (claps/snaps/cowbell), Shaker/Maracas and Tambourine,
    each with an On/Off button, which activates or deactivates the percussion for the respective pad.

    To add percussion, proceed as follows:
    1. Activate the percussion pad you wish to use by clicking the On/Off button in the upper left corner of the pad.
    This will also automatically select the pad.

    2. Start playback to hear the results. Depending on the nature of the groove (time signature, style, etc.),
    an appropriate percussion groove is already selected for the instrument.
    The percussion part is also added to the Song Block and is highlighted.

    3. By using the Amount knob, you can now switch between different percussion grooves
    from the percussion library for the selected percussion instrument.

    From the Drums tab, you can make changes regarding what percussion instrument
    or variation each pad plays, by clicking the arrow to open the Instrument Properties
    window.
