Hi,

that seems strange. I also have my EZX:s and some SDX:s on an SSD drive and do not see that long loading times.
Did you go into the Libraries settings and toggle the drive type?

Hi John,

yes, drive type is set to SSD. In EZDrummer the load time of the library is much quicker. I use “The Classic EZX for Windows” Version 1.1.0 (2015-04-23) with a “Sound library update for Windows” Version 1.5.1 from 2014-06-05 (on’t know why the update is older than the prior version).

OK,

for me the Classic EZX takes about 3-4 seconds to load in SD3.
Please try downloading the 1.5.1 update again and run it.

I did not find an option to only reinstall the update. Uninstall of EZX and the update and then reinstall both doesn’t change anything.

OK, you can download and install updates even if there is no prompt to download them by going into Details on your products in Product Manager.
But to move on: did you re-download the full installer and update before you ran the installers or did you use installers already on disk?
Was the EZX folder actually gone from disk after uninstall?
Am I understanding you correctly that this is the only library that takes unusually long to load?

John

I did an uninstall and deleted all the downloaded files now, downloaded the EZX and update new in the Product Manager and installed new – still the same problem.

I do not own other EZX or SDX, only the Classic EZX. It shows up in library view (in SD3, not in the Product Manager) with 2 entries: “The Classic EZX” and “The Classic 4Mic”. Kits of both entries load slow, all kits from the SD3 core load fast.

Hi,

I am sorry but I have no further troubleshooting steps for you.
None of us can reproduce your slow loading times. The difference between The Classic EZX and newer EZX:s (and SDX:s) is that it has individual files instead of soundbunches.
If that fact affects your system, it shouldn’t make such a big difference between EZD2 and SD3 though.
The EZX appeared automatically in SD3 after install, right? And you have the new graphics like in my screen shot below?

Hi John,

thanks for the answer. Did you try to reproduce with the same EZX (The Classic)?

I installed the EZX with the Product Manager and it was shown in SD3 immediately and with the new graphics. I count about 12,500 files in the EZX with entirely 950 MB, of which 300 MB are loaded (around 4,000 files). My machine should be quick enough to handle this (Core i7, SSD, 8 GB Ram, Windows 8.1).

OK, all of this sounds right.
