You can use other MIDI libraries (with User MIDI), but not non-EZKeys sound or sample libraries (however Toontrack does quite a broad array of very useful instruments). Likewise you can use EZKeys MIDI with other libraries, either by drag and drop to a DAW MIDI or instrument track or via MIDI out. But if you are asking can you import a third party sample library to EZkeys, I would say no. It is not designed that way.
However you can use the MIDI out on EZKeys to trigger World Suite samples in UVI Workstation, within a DAW such as Studio One, Pro Tools, etc.
Hope that answers your question
I will add I am not sure the demo version of EZKeys will do that.

Thank you for the response!

I guess my question wasn’t really specific. Sorry about that. I use Pro Tools. So, my dilemma is that I am not a piano player, I know only basics. EZ Keys is perfect for me, I like how the plugin works. But I am only interested in Folk/World instruments (everything I need is in UVI World Suite). Toontrack don’t seem to have World instruments in their EZKeys MIDI library. So, can I use EZ Keys plugin with World Suite instruments? I hope my question is more clear now.

From your respond, I think that I should be able to do that, but I am asking again just in case, before I invest in EZ Keys.

Thank you!

Yes you, can trigger samples in UVI Workstation from the player track in EZKeys via EZKeys’ MIDI out capability, within Pro Tools.

Hey there! So, I got both the World Suite and EZ Keys (yay), so now my question is how exactly do I do the MIDI out? I mean literally. I create two instrument tracks, correct? One for EZ Keys and one for UVI Workstation. Then what? I was trying to play with Inputs and Outputs, but none seemed to work. :-/ Let me know, please. Thank you in advance!

EZKeys Menu (upper right) Enable MIDI Out
Setup your UVI stereo instrument track with the input as “InstX EZKeys out”
Record arm the UVI Track and Mute the EZKeys track.
Just like in this screen shot.
