Addictive Drums Midi

[Greg Johnson]

Is anyone using midi packs from Addictive Drums (XLN Audio) with EZ Drummer 2?

I’m considering buying a pack or two from them, and would like to know how easy or complicated the workflow is.

I have EZ Player, which I know will wrap the midi, but the forums at XLN Audio are closed, so I can’t ask over there….

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I don’t think you can use the AD MIDI Packs with anything but AD, probably not even install them. If you already own AD, you can manually export the MIDI as MIDI files and then use EZplayer Pro to wrap them but it’s a pretty convoluted workflow.

That’s true: their midi packs are compressed as monolithic files, but as far as AD1 is concerned, the standard midi files (SMF) from XLN’s ADpaks and MDpaks are available as separate downloads, provided you have a customer access to their website; actually, nothing needs be exported: the files can be used immediately, once their enclosing folder has been dropped onto EZ Player’s window…

For AD2, they only have a single MDpak (American rock) which I’m not interested in, so I don’t know whether there is a separate SMF; since their forum is down, the best move is probably to ask them directly.
