I would pay $2000 for a Toontrack DrumBrain if it can replace the software-features in the most important aspects. But it has to be on the same level with Roland modules in trigger quality and trigger settings and low latency.

Are you looking to fix it up after recorded or while?

Here is some info on the logical editor (not sure if it is included with Cubase Artist.)

The MIDI plugin is probably easier though. Cubase is great for MIDI manipulation.

I’m looking to fix it up while e-drumming in real time.
The Cubase MIDI plugin “Transformer” is the tool for this and it works great. It is included with Cubase Artist. So I have to buy this DAW if Toontrack is not improving EZD2 for the demands of e-drummers.

The only thing that I think is very hard to set with the MIDI pugin is the mixing of bow and edge:

it would be really the most perfect if there was the option to mix the “tight” and the “closed” sounds for both pad areas (bow and edge):
For example having a “closed” bow sound and a “tight” edge sound for foot position fully down…

It would be really nice if EZD2 could implement this!

You’ll have to set Cubase “Transformer” (midi-insert) to send the max CC04 value up to “116” to trigger the “closed” instead of the “tight” articulation. So you have to gate 11 from 127. (checked this with Cubase Pro Trial-version)

amendment:
The E-Drum mode and the Pedal Correction affects the setting – so my quote is for the EZD2 settings “E-Drum mode: Roland and Pedal Correction 2”

for Roland-mode but without Pedal Correction you’ll have to gate only 2 from 127, so the “closed” instead of the “tight” articulation is triggered at CC04 value 125.
