EZdrummerLITE missing samples

[DerPapa]

Hi there
Just installed EZdrummerLite to use it with mixcraft on win7.
I ran into problems that mixcraft obviously wont work with the 64bit version, anyway, deinstalled it and installed the 32 bit. I choose the custom install because I wanted it to be on the D drive instead of C. After the install the VST plugin dll was missing. I also didn’t get a notice under what path it should be installed (like for the 64bit version before)
I copied it over form the unpacked data.

When I open EZdrummer in Mixcraft I missed a lot of samples. snare was working on the first sample, the 14″ Rogers, all others are greyed out. Same for the kick. the crash doesn’t play at all. Funny if you play a beat with half the set.
I checked the filestructure but it appears all samples are there. Well, I couldn’t play any of them, flagged as “corrupt or unsupported format”.
I thought ok, CD must be corrupt, deinstalled and reinstalled the downloaded version again, with the same effect.

this is what it looks like for the crash and kick:

help appretiated!
Thanks in advance

Everything looks fine for EZdrummer Lite. It is a ‘lite’ version and is thus limited. From the EZdrummer Lite product page:

The following are disabled or otherwise limited:

• No crash cymbals and no rack toms are provided
• Alternative instrument selections are not possible
• Some specialist articulations included with the full product are not provided
• The sample pool cannot be expanded with add-on packs (EZX-s) available for the full version
• EZdrummer Lite edition ships with a limited amount of MIDI files
• Mixer preset saving is disabled
• Multi channel routing is disabled

woops, Thanks for being so kind not writing “RTFM!!!!” I just found it too, just couldn’t imagine that LITE is really not supposed to be used even in a hobbists project and just a teaserproduct, I mean come on, at least one high tom and one crash and you could do something with the kit.
Maybe it is a good idea to make those greyed out samples totally disappear for LITE, to avoid confusion? In fact, for me, this was what made me think, “well there must be something missing”.

ok anyway, first impression on that thing: Awesome! Must have! teasing accomplished! bastards!

cheers
