I think the groove supplier needs to work with toontrack with their installers to install their grooves with the appropriate files config to make it available in the tap to find feature. Or if toontrack is worried about losing some income from having to buy their grooves then they should make this a buy able upgrade to have this feature especially for your own created grooves. in the end if youre purchasing grooves from PS or GM then they should have them available in the installer for tap to find
I dont think 3rd party manufactures need to go back in history (or in the future) to give useless tags to their libraries because errr …, “tags are pointless” .
I also protest at the thought of “paying extra” to allow EZD2 to read 3rd Party libraries ( as they should ) …, because I already own all their midi libraries , so there is no more money to milk from me for their libraries ….,
…, also another reason is , as soon as Superior 3 is released , I will never be using EZD2 ever again . so dread the thought of spending any “more ” money on it . I always had SD 2 , and I (as with many others SD2 users) only bought EZD2 “strictly to take advantage of the search features”
( which as it turns out have been severely and deliberately crippled by TT at the expense of the end user 
)
I really do hope TT are listening to their users and give us what we all want 
Thanks for your ideas! We will look at this and see if there’s something we can do about it 
Regarding your question – the limit is not 80% – it’s often the top results are from 80% and up, but as you said, as you filter the results get lower %. The limit is actually a fixed number of results that will be shown (due to technical reasons). But as I said – we’ll look into it!

cool.
I am still a little confused as to which files exactly will show up – it seems like i can take the percentage way down and get low % matches by selecting specific folders to match to. I will highlight a certain folder and then it will match even down at %40 or whatever is closest in that particular folder.
Also wondering if kick and snare seem to be more important in terms of finding matches. It would be great to eventually be able to designate priority in matching, like a “focus” that allows you to select the toms, or toms and snare, for example. That would give better control over the search.
Hopefully TT will keep developing this concept of tap2find, because it is a game changer.
Yes, the more precise you are in your search (by selecting more filters, like certain libraries), the lower the matching % on the found files will be. This is logical, since the tap2find algorithm in that scenario has fewer files to search amongst.
You are correct in your statement that kick and snare are more important than other instruments on the drum kit. If you want to find something where it’s important that, for example, the hi-hat plays a certain style – just tap in the hi-hat and the files will be sorted according to that. Since you can copy that hi-hat grove and paste on any kick/snare pattern on the song track we figured that this is a pretty flexible (and still easy to use) solution. You can also use filters to further narrow down your search, for example – select the Straight filter, and all other types of MIDI files won’t be shown.
But as all other feature requests you guys have – we will note your request to manually enter which instruments that should be marked as more important in the search
