Hi John, and thanks for the feedback.
I actually interfaced with EZD2 demo using the DR 880, with mixed results. There’s no way to map the pads to the individual drums in EZD2.
The other 2 banks on DR880 are mostly repeats and quite randomly mapped.

Anyway, today I ordered Superior drummer (which has a Mapping module), and just seems like it will meet more of my needs.
I do also have an old but fine Roland R8 machine stored away, and it’s possible that may actually serve better as a midi trigger with the Toontrack product until I can get an EDrum kit.
Can’t wait to try it!

I have just purchased SD2 and am looking forward to learning it’s in and outs. I have a Boss DR-880 drum machine and was wondering if any of you are using it with SD2 and what your expereiences are. Any advice on set-up or major issues to speak of? Thanks in advance and I look forward to getting deeper with the product…I use Sonar and spend a lot of time over in their forum, so I hope this one is chop full of engagement as well…

Cheers!

Hi Frosty,
I have been able to play a drum sequence song/ patterns from my DR-880 and have them trigger the EZdrummer2 drum voices. Sounds great ; but the kick drum is triggering the EZD2 snare ; AND I think it’s a MIDI mapping issue.
Any way to map the EZD2 instruments that you are aware of?

best, Jim
