    SD doesn’t have this tool or does it?

    SuperiorDrummer2.0 does NOT have the songwriting or MIDI editing functionality found in EZDrummer2.

    could I import somehow 20GB of loops into EZ DRUMMER 2 and search there,
    wherever hit interesting phrase via TAP TEMPO option?
    Will the program show me also matched phrases of the new SD’s library??

    While you CAN use EZDrummer EZX expansion sound libraries in SuperiorDrummer2,
    you can NOT ‘import’ or otherwise use SuperiorDrummer2 sound libraries in EZDrummer1 or EZDrummer2.

    You seem to be confusing the 20GB of drum samples with the MIDI grooves provided with SuperiorDrummer and its SDX expansions.
    They are two (2) entirely different components of the Toontrack virtual instrument line.
    MIDI grooves (loops) are very very small data files that instruct a virtual instrument which kit piece to play,
    when to play it as well as how hard and how loud. These grooves/loops usually amount to files as only 5-10MB.
    The 20GB of drum samples are the sound files that are played by the software reading those MIDI instructions.

    That said, EZDrummer and SuperiorDrummer2 can use/share the same MIDI grooves.

    Thanks gseshleman!
    It’s very helpful answer, I am not sure what that means in 100% though.

    So I will put it this way – I am interested only in base products without expansions (money eh..). I am not a good drum player, I can’t create very professional and interesting phrases matched with my music every time I want (guitar instrumental here), sometimes I will do such thing wrapping my ass off to find one matched groove 🙂 So that said EZ Drummer 2 is really helpful for me cause I either tap tempo (usually) or eventually search library of grooves and the magic part is that I can throw it to song creator and have immediately lots of fitting verses, intros, fills etc… BUT… But… After couple of such actions the “library” and possibilities start to shrink.. And I end up with not finding anything I could fit int my complex and great music creations hahaha….

    So, maybe I should go for expansion? But I thought that expansion gives you mostly new set of percussion.. I would like to also have broad spectrum of samples and library and e.g. different drum options like brushes (not only ssticks), different percussion possibilities production-wise…

    So 2, I guess what I need is the tool that gives me the most creation process possibilities, the most versatile drum plugin that gives me the most to offer when I have a crazy drum pattern in mind or want to use other not classical drum sets e.g. cosmic beats or whatever… Lets say no matter how much work involved, I will eventually become drummer haha. So you would recommend SD 2 instead of EZD 2?

    Thanks!
