Midi Pack Editing Possibilities in EZDrummer 2

  Hi – EZD 2 looks cool and I’m interested. When I was a kid recording on my Tascam Porta 7, this type of thing was unheard of. Astonishing, really.

  Anyway, I’m wondering about functionality with MIDI packs.

  I know you don’t get the actual drum sets like you do with expansion packs…Basically it’s just the grooves, all “in MIDI” form (except I don’t know what that means. Sorry I have been actively avoiding anything called MIDI my entire life, so bear with me)…

  I’m wondering what can I still do with those MIDI packs. Two questions:

  1. Are the MIDI packs just like a looper where I can cut and paste and trim the recorded parts but that’s it – Or can I still use the EZD2 edit play style feature where I “talk to the drummer”, changing velocity and frequency and all that stuff?

  2. I’m wondering: can I use the grooves from a MIDI pack but have them played on different drum libraries/my own saved drum configurations, etc., in ezd2?

  I hope my questions make sense. I would probably get maybe two real versatile expansion packs for drum sounds, but then maybe a couple MIDI packs for grooves – but I would want to know if I can still adjust the grooves and styles in the MIDI packs like I would with the “Modern” library sounds that come stock on EZD2.

  Thanks

  Jon
