These SDX’s were designed for Superior Drummer 2 and leverage some of the sounds from the core-library. To use these, you could purchase the NY vol. 1 SDX or get an SD2 license somewhere. I think Toontrack should lower the price of the NY vol 1 permanently.

Hello gearnerd,

Thank you for the info. I completely forgot I posted the issue – it’s been so long ago. Since my post I purchased NY Vol.1 but not for any reason related to your post. Completely ignorant on how NY Vol.1 relates to Custom & Vintage to solve my issue but I just opened Custom & Vintage in SD3 and now all the Henderson Sets load fine… If simply purchasing that has solved the issue, that’s a lucky coincidence. Can you expand further on how that worked?

Today I also updated to latest SD3 plus basic Sound library as prompted in ToonTrack Product Manager, I take it that’s not related to now having access to all Henderson sets.

New York Studios volume 1 is the core library for SD2, also known as Avatar, named after Avatar studio.

The only relation it has to the custom and vintage SDX is that a couple of the presets stack ambient channels from avatar. Avatar is only required if you wish to use those particular ambient stacked presets as is. However, it is not a direct requirement of the SDX itself. You are also able to replace the ambient channels with those of SD 3 core library or any SDX.

Hi Jord

Thank you for your reply and explanation, much appreciated. Strange that Toontrack didn’t offer any such explanation when I first posted, seeing as they must know this.

It’s not the first post regarding this particular situation, and I guarantee that it won’t be the last. 😀

like you, I bought NY Vol 1 on its own merits. However, the lack of it previously did not denigrate C&V in anyway.

Hi jord

Interesting that you didn’t have an issue with the Henderson Sets before buying NY Vol.1. It bugged me that I could only open 4 out of 9 of them. So many potential compatibility issues with technology that it’s a blessing when everything goes smoothly from day to day.

There’s a difference between “not having an issue“ and “the existence of an issue“.

I had the same pop up as everybody else. It just didn’t stop me from using this SDX. It’s a fantastic sounding pack for when you need drums recorded in a tight dry space. I believe it was also recorded on an REDD console, which to me is an added bonus. That is why I bought this SDX.

The main reason I bought New York Studios volume one (and two for that matter) was because I got volume 3 on an amazing no-brainer Black Friday deal (thank you Toontrack!) and loved both how Neil Dorfsman & Pat Thrall recorded the drums and how Nir Z played them. Having them on a couple of songs was like having Nir Z playing them.
