EZD3 not retaining hihat articulations entered in Grid Editor

[keithwriter]

I am LOVING EZDrummer 3 – great sounds, and wonderful new functionality. However, I’m encountering a recurring issue. When I enter specific hihat articulations in the Grid Editor – such as closed-to-open over the span of several notes, or vice versa – a minute or two later, I keep losing those articulations, even though I am meticulous about saving the project very frequently. And I am unable to successfully copy and paste a segment of midi where I’ve created those specific articulations in Grid Editor. Instead, the notes all revert to the main “power hand” articulation for that midi clip.

I’m running behind deadline on a project because I keep losing my hihat articulations. Is this a bug? If so, is there a fix planned, or is there a workaround?

Thanks for your help!

Thanks for reporting this issue, we’ll investigate it asap.

What DAW are you using?

Do you know how to reproduce this issue (what steps do you take before the hi-hat articulation changes)?

I’ve sent a file request to your email. It would be of great help if you could save a project in your DAW (or in the standalone) where this issue occurs and then upload it to the link in the email. A video/screen recording where you reproduce this issue would be of great help as well (such a video could be uploaded to the same link).

Thank you!

Andreas – I uploaded the project and some screen captures of the issue. I even tried “fooling” the app, by making a different instrument the Power Hand, thinking that maybe that’s what was overwriting my articulations. Same problem: if I save the project and close it, when I reopen it, the articulations are gone. Next I’m going to try cutting the groove into individual 16th-note segments, to see if that allows me to retain control. But that’s not a tenable workaround for the long term.

My DAW is the latest version of Reaper (64), but the problem happens in the standalone EZD3 as well.

Looking forward to resolving this – thanks for your help!

Thank you!

I’m able to reproduce this using the project file that you uploaded. Our goal now is to fix this with an update.

Any updates on this fix? I am having the same issue with an opening and closing hi hat articulation I created in the grid editor. After making any other changes to the track (or closing and reopening the project), the hi hat always reverts back to a single hi hat setting rather than the open/close variations I created.
