DFH Superior MIDI track to EZ Drummer 2

[Michal Sciwiarski]

Hi All…

I have a track recorded by DFH Superior drum mapping in Cubase. I would like to use this track with EZ Drummer 2 .. Can I convert this mapping from dfh Superior to the EZD2 with EZPlayer or another toontrack application smoothly ??

thanks for any advice

cheers

First, I am assuming that having posted your question in the Support forum (and not the Pre-Sales forum)
that you own EZDrummer2. So assuming that….

are you finding that your track plays differently in SuperiorDrummer versus EZDrummer2 ??
as far as I know, they have the same mapping.

In Superior1 we had a mapping called ‘Superior’, which was the default
mapping. It was mainly designed to play comfortably on a MIDI keyboard.
Since then we have moved to, what we call, ‘GM-extended’.
It is based on the GM mapping of drums but with a lot of extra notes
defined by us. EZplayer Pro can translate MIDI from ‘Superior’ to
‘GM-extended’.

Ok, but how can I do this ??? I’ve looking for tutorials on youtube and more, and I couldn’t find the correct example..
I have a MIDI track recorded with Superior mapping, when I use a Suppeiror Drummer 2 and I choose the mapping as a “Superior” the SD2 works well.
I’ve tried to drag this midi track to the EZPlayer Pro, choose the “Map wrap” as a superior 1, set the output of ezplayer to the ezdrummer2, but it doesn’t work:(

thanks for any help.

No, that doesn’t work. It does the opposite thing.

You need to put the MIDI in a folder on disk and then
add that folder in EZplayer. Then you specify its
‘Source mapping’ as ‘Superior 1’.

Aaaa, Ok, thanks for the tip
Can I save the converted midi track in my DAW track to avoid having to use EZPlayer later?

Hello Olle,

Unfortunatelly it doesn’t work as I expect… When I saved the midi track to the midi file and added it to the ez player the ezdrummer2 doesn’t play sounds correctly..
If I run the Superior Drummer 2 with midi mapping as “Superior” on this midi track, it works well.. Transfering the midi through the ezplayer with source mapping as superior 1 doesn’t work:(

best regards

Michal
