Hi,
I would do the following:
Close Logic.
Go to {Mac HD}/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components/ and delete the ‘Superior Drummer 3.component’ file
Clear the AU cache by following the instructions in this FAQ: https://www.toontrack.com/faq/my-toontrack-plug-in-is-missing-from-logic-garageband/
Reboot your Mac. Open the Product Manager and Download the SD3 3.3.7 Installer again (if you have deleted it). Run it and make sure you click ‘Customise’ and then check that the AU plug-in is indeed being installed (see screen shots).

Next, start Logic.

Hi,
I highly recommend using the Product Manager Application. Is it possible for you to have your computer online for Authorisation?

Hi,
this topic is about having different versions of resources and plug-in on Windows and you are using macOS Sequoia. Please start a new thread about your particular problem, describing what steps you have taken and your system specs.

Thanked by: Scott Eshleman and BradHi,
using the SD3 Tracker to convert recorded audio files into MIDI is never as easy as if you are recording MIDI directly from an E-kit, if that is what you are asking?
However, with separate microphones for each kit piece you wish to convert with Tracker, the easier it will be for you. I presume you record the separate microphones to separate tracks/files for loading in the SD3 Tracker.

Hi,
I am afraid you have missed the info on the Dark Industrial product page that it is an EZkeys 2 library which requires EZkeys 2.
In this EKX for EZkeys 2, the absolute contraries of the audio scope come…
This EKX requires EZkeys 2. Learn more about the program…

Hi,
unless something is communicated via the main site or via email, future products, features and/or updates questions will never be replied to here on the Forum. NDA’s and stuff.
Requests over at ‘Requests & Feedback’ are always read by Toontrack.
I started on a Strata Prime Map for a User a while ago, maybe you can use it either as is or as a starting point?
If you wish to do so, please download the attached ZIP file, un-zip and then click the ‘Manage in Finder/Explorer’ entry in the MIDI Presets list in EZD3 and place the un-zipped file in there. Rescan User Presets and it should be there. If you make changes, don’t forget to save them.

does this mean I can trial it again with a new account, or on a different computer, or both?
Hi,
AFAIK, both should work.
Just make sure that if you decide to buy it, be logged in to your main account when registering it.

Hi Mark,
the Hitmaker SDX is an expansion library for SD3. i.e. an add-on. There is a Bundle offer in the web shop now.

Hi,
if I understand you correctly, I would say that you should probably look into upgrading to Superior Drummer 3, where you can expand library kits with additional instruments/pads and have much more control over individual articulations and custom setups.

questions about what is or isn’t in development will never be answered in the Forum due to several reasons but Toontrack always take requests and feedback posted here into consideration.

Hi,
if you have your grooves on your EZD3 Song Track, you need to drag them to your Instrument Track in LUNA to be able to see them there.
When on the Instrument Track, make sure NOTES view is enabled and you may also need to click FOLD and/or FIT.
I haven’t seen the Audio Engine inactive message in LUNA myself but you could always try toggling the ARM Mode. Are there any other program running that claims the audio device? Which interface are you using? I’m running an x4 here.

Hi Raymond,
if you have imported the Tempo/Time Sig from Logic to the SD3 Song Track via a dummy MIDI file and then Disable ‘Follow Host’ before you use the SD3 internal Bounce, everything should work as expected.
Please check if your SD3 Song Track’s Tempo and Time Signature matches your Logic Pro’s Timeline. Also, if you have a minus Bar offset in Logic it will complicate the synching.

I’m also having this issue – downloaded the trial of EZD3 but it said it had already expired. Apparently it was trialled a couple of years ago, but I’ve no memory of ever trialling it.
I’ve been waiting for support to get back to me for a few days, but haven’t heard anything yet. I know it’s the holiday season, so people may not be working, but I’m worried that the current deals will end before I’ve had a chance to trial the product đ I’ll only need a day or two to trial it. Surely someone can help??
Hi,
unfortunately Forum Tech advisors can’t help you with that particular issue, only Toontrack Support can do that.

15dec24: Created and account, downloaded Toontrack PrdMngr, downloaded ED3, tried to launch get the error code “sound library issue” tried rescan and restart no change! Mean while my 10 day trial is evaporating and no chance to evaluate this product.
The competition is looking better everyday!
How about some help Toontrack.
Hi,
did you also download and install the Core Trial library? Without a library the software doesn’t work as expected.

Hi rushfan,
what Shootie is getting at is that if there is CC data recorded from the e-kit, you will not get expected results remapping articulations or dragging notes to specific articulations in the Grid Editor. If your drummer has recorded the HH with an e-kit, selecting the right MIDI Preset in Superior Drummer 3 should yield expected results with un-altered performance.
If the note triggers are for the Edge and Tip Trigger notes, the HH CC data takes care of the correct openness.
Re-Learning MIDI notes in the MIDI Mapping Property Box on the DRUMS page would be opening a can of worms for you, I suspect.
