As soo many others I really look forward for the EZbass.

I hear ya man. I will say though that SD3 is really not that hard to use. Too be honest, I wasn’t a big fan of SD2 and I rarely used it. Toontrack really improved the workflow in SD3. I’m no expert at mixing drums myself, but I’m getting awesome results so far.

Regarding EZD2, the main thing that always frustrated me was not being to add just a little more EQ to a snare or reverb if I wanted to. In SD3 you can load any EZX and do this with any instrument. Your getting the same sounds as EZD2, but you can tweak them just a little bit and make them sound much better without getting too deep into it. The stacking feature is amazing! You can beef up the sound of any drum just using that without even using the effects in the mixer if you don’t want to, but you will once you play with it a bit. I promise you that.

Bottom line is that if you like EZD2, you will love SD3. I too hate drum software that is confusing as hell and difficult to learn, but SD3 does not fall into that category. Hope this helps and I hope you’ll give it a shot. Good luck!  

Thanks for the feedback! However, for me it’s not that I think SD3 will be too advanced and complicated, but rather that I have to pay a little too much for features I will never use (for example the advanced mixing). I’m mostly after using the best setup for me as a singer-songwriter to get the best environment to start when recording my new songs. So for example the feature to be able to record the first version directly in SD3 without using a DAW (Logic Pro X in my case) is one thing that interests me.

So for me the bottom line is simply that I think the crossgrade deal from EZD2 to SD3 could be a bit better, it’s not a lot of rebate I get.

Just to make sure, I guess I can use all my MIDI-packs from EZD2 with SD3 as well?

Thanks

I’m starting to doubt there will ever be a third release of EZ Drummer. I just don’t see how they could simplify it anymore than SD3. I hope I’m wrong though. Maybe they’ll come up with something!  

Maybe it would simply be a light-version of SD3 then?!? Personally I’d really like some of the improvements in SD3 when it comes to handling of windows etc, but I don’t need all the advanced drum production and mixing… that’s why I got EZ2 in the first place. So I’m a bit hesitant in crossgrading.

Cheers,

So Toontrack, can we expect an EZDrummer 3 with the relevant improvements from SD3 brought in? And when?

I’m thinking about crossgrading to SD3, but I will it simply has to many things I don’t need… would rather have an ED3.

Thanks!
