Hello
In EZ Drummer it’s pretty straight forward. You expand a right-side User Midi area, and it’s synced up nice with Windows.
In SD3 in Song Track Menu Options, they way I found it is track>import midi file. Then I can navigate to my EZDrummer User Midi files, and open the file. So far so good. But my issue is the next time I import a user midi file I go to track>import midi file…the browser gets reset to my user folder. Then I have to navigate all over again to the EZDrummer User Midi files folder.
Why is this import midi file function not “remembering” where my EZ Drummer User Midi files are located so every time I don’t have to navigate User>documents>Toontrack>EZ Drummer>User Midi?
Also, before the import or drag and drop, is there a way to make Windows 10 or SD3 preview the midi file before dropping into SD3 song block? In EZ Drummer, the play icon is always available in the User Midi Area. I’m almost ready to give up and keep EZ Drummer open just to audition and drag/drop into SD3.
If there is an easier way to import user midi files into SD3 I would love to know the solution.
I have my EZdrummer User MIDI folder added at the very bottom of my Grooves page, this solves what you are after, right?

Thanks for the reply.
The user midi folder added at the bottom of a SD3 grooves page?
I’m out of town, but will be back in a few days. Thanks for your patience.

Thanked by: gregOk. So with SD3 the user midi folders were moved from the right side in EZ Drummer to the grooves page in SD3 near the bottom under “user midi.” Understood.
However in SD3, no matter what folder or sub-folder I click on, it says “empty folder” where the midi files should show up.
Here is my path.
C>users>user name>documents>toontrack>ezdrummer>user midi.
Inside the User midi folder I have lots of folders and lots of sub-folders. For example, because I wanted Chris Whitten fills in my user midi folder, I copied them into a user midi folder. I have the following: User midi>custom & vintage>chriswhitten sticks>song 1 107bpm >fill variations. Inside the folder fill variations are 10 midi files, but they don’t show up in SD3. clicking on Fill variations does nothing. It says Empty folder.
Even if I just create a new Test Folder inside the User Midi folder, then put a midi file in the Test folder, SD3 shows it as Empty folder. Double clicking on the folder does nothing. Right click shows the usual stuff…re-name, delete, show in explorer etc…
In Settings.libraries/paths I changed the path to c.user.username/documents/toontrack/ezdrummer/user midi, but that made no difference. Changing it back to the default path makes no difference either…assuming I put some midi files for test purposes in Superior 3>SD3 User Presets
I wanted to post a couple .jpg attachments, but I get this Edit/Insert box instead of a .jpg that I can drag and drop here.
The User MIDI main folder has a small drop-down menu, which you access by clicking the small down arrow right next to the folder name or right-click the folder.
If you click ‘Sync File Changes’ are your folders still empty?
