Accessing an external hardrive Toontrack Library and drummer from 2 laptops

[archybrowne]

Can’t understand why there is no Toontrack Manual!

I use a single external hard drive to access my Toontrack Library and player from.

I cannot figure how to access this same hard drive without re-downloading (and paying for a new download) another data base of Superior3 and many other Toontrack databases.

if Toontrack has seriously entered the 21st century digital marketplace, could you please provide an accurate method to allow me to exercise this option?

Can’t understand why there is no Toontrack Manual! and that it does not take technical enquiries

Of course there is a manual.

Regarding the use of a single external hard drive containing your sound libraries on two laptops,
you will still need to install the Superior Drummer 3 software, MIDI Library, and Presets on both laptops.
The sound libraries can reside and be configured to reference the same external drive.

from the SD3 manual:
LINKING THE INSTALLED SOFTWARE TO THE SUPERIOR DRUMMER 3 SOUND LIBRARY
Once ALL software installations are complete, launch The SD3 stand alone application.

In the [Settings] menu, select [Libraries].

Click the [Browse for Library Paths] button
and then navigate to the ‘SL-SuperiorDrummer3‘ folder on the hard drive.

The sound library will now be linked and available for use.

Repeat for each additional installation.
