I’d really appreciate it if you could check how many grooves there should be next time you are able to and get back to me here. There are dozens of variations in the Blues pack that I bought – 9 reggae grooves for 69 euros seems like much less value. The reason for buying the reggae pack was that I don’t have much of a background in reggae – I don’t understand how to construct reggae grooves. If I were able to construct reggae grooves, I would have done so using the basic kits I already have. Enjoy the rest of your Christmas.
Let’s please not forget that for 69 euros, you got the Reggae EZX sound library “recorded at Rub-a-Dub Studios in Stockholm, Sweden and comes with a unique and genuine collection of instruments, all handpicked for this session. It includes two full, single-headed custom drum kits, a generous selection of snares, percussion and traditional Binghi and clay hand drums.”
If you only wanted some reggae grooves to use with the basic kits you already have,
you may have been better served by buying the “Reggae Beats MIDI Pack”
(106 variations of beats, 79 fills and nearly as many intro fills) as it’s only the MIDI and no sound library.

Does anyone know if the midi in the blues ezx are the same ones in the blues midi pack?
There are two (2) packs of Blues MIDI grooves offered by Toontrack.
One MIDI pack named simply, “BLUES MIDI” contains different blues grooves than those in the MIDI pack named,
“The Blues EZX MIDI Pack” which clearly contains the MIDI that is included in THE BLUES EZX expansion for EZDrummer.
(It says so right in its title and on its product description page.)

Don’t forget that EZDrummer2 allows you to preview any and all MIDI available through the Toontrack MIDI Web Shop
by clicking the “Show Web Shop MIDI” button atop the filter window on the SEARCH tab.

Thanked by: 59billyThis is just a suggestion from another user, so please excuse if this sounds obvious , but
have you logged into your Toontrack account and looked for an update specifically for your DFH ???
Have you checked your Recycle Bin???
Seriously, can you offer any ideas regarding what events or error messages may have preceded the disappearance of the sound library???
I’ve not heard of such a thing occurring without some prior warning….
I’d wager that re-installation will be your easiest, if not only recourse.
PS. what OS are you running?

Thanks for the reply… I don’t get that drop-down box in EZ Drummer, it will only scroll through the presets in the orange rectangle. The percussion preset isn’t there…?
not wanting to assume anything here, are you clicking on the orange button itself or only on the arrows next to it?

“Well, I can’t say more than previously announced; an AAX version for Pro Tools 11 will be released and I would be surprised if it isn’t sooner rather than later but I can’t give you a date. As I understand it, it is awaiting its turn in a set schedule. BR, John”
SO in reference to your quote….I guess you are now surprised. When are we going to see this? I would even have purchased EZ Drummer 2 if it had the feature to split out individual parts….
You won’t even respond to support questions about this. I think we, there community, can now assume you are never going to continue to support this. I hope another manufacturer can be coaxed into stepping up to the plate and fulfilling this need. You obviously aren’t interested…..
EZDrummer2 does split out parts.
You have the ability to remove individual kit pieces from a groove placed in the song track
or paste a kit piece and its pattern from one groove into another.


First, I am assuming that having posted your question in the Support forum (and not the Pre-Sales forum)
that you own EZDrummer2. So assuming that….
are you finding that your track plays differently in SuperiorDrummer versus EZDrummer2 ??
as far as I know, they have the same mapping.
are you using a drum instrument other than EZDrummer2 to play back the MIDI in Logic ???

Thanks for the reply.
I remeber now from last time! The only other issue is that the only file I can use is Win installer. When I right click, it does not give me the option to extract??
Ok. Think I D/L 32 bit not 64. How can I change that? The update only give me 1 option??
if Windows does not give you an ‘extract’ option by default,
perhaps you can extract with another tool, like WinZip or 7zip…they may have a free trial version available.
what version of Windows are you using?
@matthew west said:
Hi there. I re-installed my old version of EZD1. Then deleted it and tried to install newer version from website. Now when I try to install the D/L version, I get ‘error 1309’. When I retry, nothing happens. Can only cancel install.
Please Help!
from https://www.toontrack.com/faq/im-getting-error-1308-1309-when-installing-on-pc/
“If you receive an error message containing ‘Error 1309′,
this is because you are attempting to run the installer without extracting the downloaded zip archive.
Please right click the downloaded zip file and choose ‘Extract all’.
We strongly recommend using Windows’ built in extraction tool for this.
Please remember to check for updates once you have run the main installer.”

That’s all. Wasn’t meant to infer any connection to the issue overall.Unknowingly you precisely identified the cause of the issue overall. See the posts between me and the Toontrack techs. Thanks for telling us all where to look!
haha… I assure you that I what I did, I did quite knowingly and in direct response to all of the posts in this thread.
Not all of my posts were intended for you. Sorry if I confused you.
Regarding “Edit Play Style”…you may find it a nice addition to your workflow.
Please check out pg 18-20 of the EZDrummer2 Operation manual for an overview of its new
features for customizing MIDI grooves in the “ground breaking Edit play style window” before taking them into Reaper.
or this video:
It sounds to me as though the ‘pull down menu” to which you are referring is the Key Signature selection for your track overall.
(show below in Attachment 1)
The Circle of Fifths option used for changing and/or modifying chords is accessed by clicking on an existing chord in the track.
(show below in Attachment 2)

Also, I see from your screenshot you’re working on midi within the EZD2 track editor. I am not, I’m working on midi in Reaper. I don’t know why that should make a difference, but I’ll check.
I was testing Tool Tips for the knobs in “Edit Play Style” mode
when I made the screenshot showing the E-Knob setting on the dropdown menu.
AFAIK, “Edit Play Style” mode is only accessible when using MIDI in the track editor.
That’s all. Wasn’t meant to infer any connection to the issue overall.

When in “Follow the Host” mode, your host/DAW controls the tempo.
I can’t see how I can control the tempo in my host DAW
what DAW are you using??
