Thanks Brad.

I was more hoping for a Toontrack soluution since the loops open fine to the correct length in Logic for example, so it appears to be an issue in EZdrummer.

Help me toontrack, you’re my only (unless I want to pay others to fix an issue with your product) hope….

In the other thread mentioned above there seems to be an issue with some of the GGD packs and not others which seems to indicate an issue with the MIDI pack and not the Toontrack drum sampler. Please contact GGD to see if they have an update with your specific GGD MIDI pack.

This is a quote from the other thread:

“GGD support told me, those packs were designed for the GGD environment exclusively (which is bulls***t in my opinion) but recommended to convert them via https://www.midiremap.com/ which turned out to be quite helpful.”

Anyone found other “fixes” for this?

Coming back to music for the first time in ages and noticing this issue again. If I drag the midi loop into Logic Pro it happily shows it as 8 bars long, yet EZ drummer still shows it as 1000 bars long.

Still sounds like a Toontrack issue to me.

It’s not a Toontrack issue. The problem is the metadata and the fact that there is no standard. IOW, developers are free to use it as they see fit.

GGD just happens to be using metadata that conflicts with how Toontrack uses it.

Only reason you won’t see an issue in logic is because logic doesn’t have any use for that particular metadata so it gets ignored.

Thanks, that’s really helpful info.

Don’t suppose you happen to know what metadata I should be looking write a script to strip out ?

cheers

Write a script to find whatever keys intersect between GGD and Toontrack and erase that data.
