Default to launch SD3 in 16 Bit mode

[Andrew Payne]

In section 11.2 of the manual there is described “Superior Drummer 3 can be launched by default in 16 bit mode by clicking the “Open Performance Settings” button and selecting the Launch in 16 bit sound mode option”. I am sure I used to do this but I no longer seem to have this option – see screenshot. Has this changed with later updates or am I doing something wrong ?

Superior Drummer 3 version: 3.2.6
Operating system: Windows 10

Dell Precision 7730, i7 6 Core 2.6 GHz, 128GB RAM, 1TB SSD and 3 x 2TB SSD, Windows 11, Cubase Pro 14, SD3 plus a variety of SDX's and EZX's, Orchestral Percussion, EZBASS, RME BabyFace Pro FS and KRK V4 monitors. Modified Yamaha DTX900, DTXPRESS4 and Edrumin10 triggering SD3. Yamaha pads/cymbals and Roland VH-10 HiHat. PDP Maple acoustic kit for live playing.

Hi,

if you have your Default Project loaded and then engage the 16-bit option in the Memory drop-down, you can ‘Set Current to Default Project’ and SD3 will launch with the 16-bit option enabled.

Thanks John but I have lots of kits/libraries that I want to always launch in 16bit mode. Whenever I change kits or libraries then it defaults to 24bit mode and I have to reset to 16bit which is annoying.

Has this option to always launch in 16bit been removed with one of the updates ? the manual still shows it is an option. cheers, Andrew

Hi Andrew,

 

The “Launch in 16 bit sound mode” option was removed from SD3 some time ago, thanks for notifying us about this. We have edited the manual to avoid confusion.
