groove identification codes

[joey pinter]

happy christmas,
this is something i find that slows me up, a lot. that is, trying to figure out what groove i’m using. if i stop working on something, then go back i find trying to find what the groove is on any particular clip is next to impossible. what i end up doing is go through every groove in every library until i find the one i used.
my question is this, could you guys make some kind of “key” or a “legend” (like maps) explaining what each abbreviation means? something one can print or put on the desktop as a quick reference.
am i the only one who finds this hard?
thanks
jp

When I use EZD2, I drag grooves to the Song Track. I then can click on a groove and select ‘Show in Browser’.

Right-click on groove, find in browser.

i’m sorry, i don’t get it. what i’m doing is, i highlight the groove description that is at the top of the clip then i copy it then i try and paste it to the clipboard but nothing happens. when i right click on the same thing i don’t get “add to browser”. what am i doing wrong?
thanks

This is what you should see when you right click on a MIDI block on the song track of EZdrummer 2:

i’m sorry, i’m using SDX and the old EZDrummer. i don’t mean to be annoying but this is something that has always bugged me.
thanks so much for your help
