SDX Are 24 bit instead of EZX 16 bit.

Hi, only 1st gen EZX:s are 16bit, 2nd gen would be 18bit and 3rd gen 20bit, if I’m not mistaken.

Hi,

if you have the MIDI on the same instrument track as EZdrummer 3, you can hit Record on the EZD3 Song Track and then Play the Cubase timeline to record into EZD3.

Hi,

I don’t have Hookpad, so could you please provide some of that MIDI, along with an EZbass Project and a recipe to reproduce what you are experiencing?

Hi Paul,

Toontrack virtual instruments all have fixed Stereo outputs (EZD3/SD3 have 16), since it makes the instruments themselves the most flexible for different expansion libraries.
In the example of SD3 or EZD3, having a fixed set of Mono+Stereo Channels would limit the possible library expansion setups. Making the Mono-Stereo outputs a configurable choice, would demand restarting your host every time such a configuration change happened. It would also limit the way you could switch between libraries and complicate previewing.

A Mono signal is always a Mono signal even if it is panned in the middle of a stereo output, slightly panned to either side or hard panned.
As you have noticed, if you wish to have a Mono mic on a Mono Mixer track in your DAW, you first pick one of the plug-in’s Stereo Outputs and then hard pan to either L or R.
Different DAWs have different ways to split a plug-in’s Stereo output into 2 Mono outputs.
If you set up Mono mics hard-panned from the plug-in to Mono mixer tracks in your DAW but still hear something on other tracks, you most likely have sends or Bleed to other channels in the plug-in.

Hello, the library doesn’t appear. I’ve already uninstalled and reinstalled the software and it’s still the same. I don’t know what else to do. Only SESSION GRAND appears.

Reply To: EKX Libraries Don’t Show Up version: 2.1.4

Hi,

could you please elaborate? Which library does not appear? Which software is it you have uninstalled and re-installed? The Session Grand is the EZkeys 2 Core library.

Hi Alejandro,

I run EZdrummer 3 on M1 – M4 Macs with no problems. I have also run EZdrummer 2 under Rosetta with no problem.

Hi,

the plug-in output is tied to 1-2, i.e. the Instrument Track where you Insert the plug-in is tied to the first output. Nothing that can be done about that, works the same for other plug-ins.

However, you are not restricted to have the Kick assigned to 1-2, you can change all microphone outputs in the EZdrummer 3 Mixer. If you wish to route Mono faders in the EZD3 Mixer to Mono Aux Tracks in Pro Tools, just pan hard to L or R and then create your Mono Aux in PT and set the EZD3 plug-in output’s L or R as Input.

Thanks for sharing, I have never seen that on my system(s) but then I am (mainly) on macOS, good to know it can happen on Windows.

Hi Eric,

do you get any crash dumps? If so, it would help if you either zipped and attach to a post here in the Forum or open a Ticket with Toontrack Support directly, so they may have a look at them.

Hi,

if you go to the GROOVES page and click the ‘Shop Webshop MIDI’ button you will see clearly which ones are available that you do not own.

Hi, can you please elaborate? Are you just interested in the hardware side of things or are you wondering if it has any impact on your studio computer usage?
DDR4 generally has lower CAS latency than DDR5 at the same frequency but DDR5 is newer and generally operates at higher frequencies making the overall performance better.

Hi,

if you change to Bar 0 in Settings and then go to File > Set Current to Default Project, the plug-in/Standalone will open with Bar 0 instead of Bar 1.

Hi,

if I understand you correctly, you have Replaced the Crash 1 on the DRUMS page and wish to Trigger it via your E-kit’s second Snare?

Please go to MIDI In/E-drums and locate the Replaced Crash 1 note, then click the ‘Learn’ button and hit your E-kit second Snare.
Save your Edits in a User MIDI Preset.
