If you select a clean kit (1st in the drop menu) then the mixer will come up… clean.

When you select any of the others (eg GEORGE MASSENBERG/PREMIER) the mixer comes up with the settings (eg) GM used to mix this particular kit (seemingly a favorite of his and I agree). That way you get to see how he did it and can even use the setup as a start point, modify and save that as a user preset.

The menu PRESETS/MIXER always shows “default” as it’s only function seems to be to restore the mixer to clean default state  if required. The confusion is caused by the tick which should really disappear* when the mixer is in a non default state.  *Maybe Toontrack could change that in a future update?

I spent 2 days with EZ and then upgraded to SD3 primarily for 24bit but after two days I’m really into how much you can do with this incredible sounding instrument. The video where GM talks about the recording setup and the microphone placement plam make clear the boundless possibilities for sound sculpting.

I got it into one of my song mixes already and it sounds incredible, it’s really a game changer for me and I don’t regret the price which is very reasonable when you consider the men and means behind the project.

The software is technically very good and even the control panel dealing with download and installation works flawlessly. Thoroughly satisfied!

 

Musical greetings and happy drumming!
