Can acoustic and electronic drum samples be layered together in EZDrummer 2?

[Gordon]

Hey everyone,
Just got EZDrummer 2 and have really been enjoying it. I’ve got the Claustrophobic EZX and I’ve been looking at getting the Electronic and/or No. 1 Hits EZX so I can add some modern electronic sounds as well. One question though – is it possible to layer electronic and electronic drums together in EZDrummer? Kind of like the NI Drumlab product? Do you just have two instances of EZDrummer playing the same MIDI file or is there a more integrated approach?

Thanks,
Gordon

Hi,

No, you can’t layer samples in EZD2 without using multiple instances of EZD2 and feeding the same MIDI. You can load single instrument kit pieces from different EZX libraries inside EZD2. For example, you can load a Number 1 Hits EZX snare in the Modern kit from EZD2. But, no, you can’t layer the kit pieces.

Hi Just revisiting this thread….I saw that Electronic EZX has several snares you can layer with…Isn’t it conceivable that we can use one of those snares to access acoustic snares from our other EZX kits or is something else preventing that?

Sorry The kit I think I meant was NUMBER #1 HITS has several snare pads….Could I add acoustic snares from my other EZX kits on there to build a hybrid snare sound??
Cheers, jeff
