The demise of EZ Player Pro

[Terence Bonnell]

It’s distressing to hear that as of Nov. 1st EZ Player Pro was discontinued……it was the only product of it’s type in existence. I don’t know of any other plugin or standalone piece of software that allows the user,  in real time, to take midi drum files from different manufacturers with different mappings, remap them on the fly, and then play them back in a DAW, synced to tempo (or not). I’ve got TT EZdrummer, GM mapped libraries from multiple vendors, XLN Addictive Drums, NI Studio Drummer, and more – I can easily demo how a midi file feels and sounds with each VI, find the best choice, and then drag the files into a track, remapped and ready to go. It’s a brilliant product. So, what’s up TT? If you’re gonna dump it, then that’s a shame. If you’re gonna somehow integrate it into another product, then that could be good. But,….are you discontinuing it because the code is 32bit? Is it gonna run on my Mac when I eventually update to Catalina?

EZ Player Pro was probably discontinued because it was total rubbish and didn’t do what it claimed.

[José Miguel Bloise]

Really? I don’t think that’s the consensus here. I, for one, found it pretty useful in the short time I had it.

A a matter of fact, miss it like crazy right now, as it could be really useful not having to learn three different software products to mimic the results I had with it. To be clear, the version I was using was NOT LEGIT. But now, that I was going to regularly acquire it, it was no more for sale!

Could it be sold as an special product with NO SUPPORT? *I* would be completely cool with it.

What say you, guys?

Me too. I was reading about the product and people i saw was telling good things about it.

I’ve been using it often too and completely agree with Terence Bonnell. Disappointed to hear it’s been discontinued although it should keep working.

EZ Player Pro
Hello, I can buy it on 2 Onlineshops for 32,- EUR. It’s good and OK for me. My Question > does it run on Windows 10 64 bit? Can I register it by Toontrack? Can I update it in the future? Thanks and musician greetings Peter Bengelmann

[Chris Cox]

Hi Peter, I can confirm that it does run on Windows 10 64 bit. There is no ongoing support from Toontrack so you’d need to contact them as to whether you can still register i on your Toontrack account. I was also disappointed when it was dropped.

Best of luck,

A fellow musician, Chris

They should reinstate it in a better version

Because it’s 2024 maybe we could relaunch EZplayer pro as a newer updated version like EZplayer pro 2.
