EZ Drummer doesn’t respond to my e-drum kit

[justasguscius@gmail.com]

Hello,

Today I bought EZDrummer 3 for my Millenium MPS-450 e-drum kit. I adjusted all the settings in my DAW (changed MIDI Device to my Focusrite interface, inputs/outputs) and added my e-drum preset to EZDrummer 3 program. However, the program does not trigger my e-drum kit. I can only hear the sounds coming from my e-drum kit. My MPS-450 module does not include any drivers for the computer. Hopefully someone knows how to fix this.

Here are how the settings look like – https://imgur.com/a/pgbvqgG .

Hi,

it looks from the Settings screen shot like you are using the Standalone EZdrummer 3 app but you are mentioning a DAW?

If you do not have any audio cables from your E-drum module to your Focusrite interface, how do you hear the MPS-450 internal sounds?

The USB connection on the MPS-450 should be good to use as a MIDI interface with your computer, btw.

I just took a picture of ezdrummer program alone. It doesn’t matter whether I use the DAW or not. Sounds only come from my e-drum kit.

I plugged two cables into my Focusrite interface. One goes directly to the MPS-450 module, and the other is for my headphones.

Direct USB connection from e-drum module to my PC doesn’t work sufficiently. I use Focusrite interface for better sound quality.

OK, so you only have a MIDI cable running out of your MPS-450 into your Focusrite interface and headphones connected to your MPS-450?
If your headphones are connected to the MPS-450, you cannot hear anything from EZdrummer 3. Plug your headphones into your Focusrite interface instead.

No, the headphones are running into the focusrite interface. The cable for headphones goes directly to focusrite and the cable for MIDI goes from MPS-450 to the interface.

I fixed it by buying new cables. Thanks.
