EX Drummer 2 — Do the EZX SOUND EXPANSION LIBRARIES show up in the Orange Selection Box?

[Vmuisc]

Hi,
I purchased EZ Drummer 2 about 05/16/2015. At the same time I purchase two sound expansion libraries. My question is this: Should the sound expansion libraries show up in the Orange colored selection in the top right – where the out of the box, Vintage and Classic library are shown as the defaults. I think the official name is the Sound Library and/or the Preset Quick Scroll. It’s orange color, and again, the default value is Basic and Vintage. Please See the Attached Picture File.

I saw some instructional videos on Youtube where the Sound Expansion Libraries, after installation, were available in this Orange selection box in the upper right corner. The videos were EZ Drummer 2.

So again – after installation, should the Sound Expansion Libraries (such as Americana, Indie Folk, Nashville, etc) APPEAR in the upper right orange colored (library/kit) selection box??????

Thanks!

If you have downloaded and installed the EZXs then yes, they should appear in that menu. They will not appear there automatically without having installed them first.

Hi Scott,
First – thanks for the reply.
Secondly – Yes, I did download and install them, but they are not appearing in that Orange box. I can see them listed in the Browser tab, although I am not certain what label or how exactly they’re listed. I don’t have the software up and running in front of me.

When installing the expansion packs – there is no choice as to the path (like C:program filesblah blah). So could it be an issue with where I installed EZ Drummer 2 itself?
Any ideas on how to fix this?

Thanks In Advance!
Alex

What does your list look like? Can you post a pic? Mine looks like this when expanded:

Hi,
I have just two items in the orange dropdown. See the attached screen snapshot. 1) EZ Drummer 2 Modern and 2) EZ Drummer 2 Vintage.

Any help getting the installed expansion libraries to show up would be appreciated!!

Well, I just checked your account and it looks like you have 2 MIDI packs registered and not EZXs.

So, those 2 Add-on packs in the MIDI browser (Americana and Indie Folk) are the 2 products you purchased.

MIDI packs are not sound expansion packs.

OooooOOOOOHHhhh………… well thank you for helping me understand.

Gee… I am certainly willing to buy the Sound Expansion Packs. Is there any way to get a refund on the wrong thing?

One other question – which pack has a snare that has loose springs, where hitting the snare gives a lot of spring rattle?

If you purchased from the Toontrack Webshop, you can try contacting them directly via the ‘Contact Support’ button in the FAQ link below.

I think the snare with the most ‘snare rattle’ is in the Nashville EZX.
