EZ Drummer 2 – 32 bit error

[bosami]

I keep getting this message : “Not Enough Memory! You are running a 32 bit version of EZ Drummer. Because of this there is a limit to the total amount of sounds EZ Drummer instances can load. Please unload drums or other instances of EZ Drummer and try again.”

I only get this when trying to load the Dark Matter EZX. If I use the stand-alone package or the Americana EZX, it does not seem to come up.

 

Mac OS X 10.6.7, 2.26GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4gb 1067, MHz DDR3
Pro Tools LE 8 v8.0.5

EZdrummer version: 2.1.8
Operating system: Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6)

Hi bosami,

Dark Matter EZX uses around 1 GB more system memory than the Americana EZX (~1350 MB vs. ~350 MB). If you have heavy projects or your system uses up a lot of resources in the background, that difference is noticeable with 4 GB total system memory.

To use the Dark Matter EZX within ProTools, it looks like you need to free up system memory first. See if there are any other running applications you can shut down or plugins you can disable while working on the drums (and then export the drums as audio when you’re done). Or follow the error message and unload a few of the toms and cymbals you’re not using.
