EZDrummer 2 problem with Reaper

[robnemeth24]

I have tried everything I know to fix this problem....

I have tried everything I know to fix this problem. Uninstalled and reinstalled reaper and ezdrummer2 with no luck.
My problem is, EZDrummer 2 will work stand alone, but it won’t produce any sound in Reaper. It loads up in Reaper, but the samples won’t play, I can’t click on the drums and make any noise. When I play the sample, the bar just immediately goes to the right like there is nothing to play.
I’m running the newest version of Reaper, and I’ve done both updates on EZDrummer. Running on Windows 7 64 bit.
When I go into the Toontrack folder, the only thing in there is this, and that seems weird to me – https://gyazo.com/2eb437396f01faa100b639e6e87f034a
And this is the only thing in my VST folder – https://gyazo.com/71718eacc6a44a1bb17857f700f02cf1
Any help would be much appreciated.

that was not the input monitoring button shown in the pic, that is the record mode button (RED). The input monitoring button is to the right right of the ‘IN (Down arrow)’ button.

Oh lol then yes the “Record: input (audio or midi)” is checked.

I re-installed both as 64 bit, and now its not even coming up in reaper

I am guessing you have ensured you are pointing to the folder that stores you ezdrummer vst file, as you had it working before yes? Maybe clear cache and rescan.

you might have had the “Record: input (audio or midi)” checked, but is the speaker button next to that turned on? if you can’t see it , expand the track panel. the button doesn;t look much like a speaker, but that is what it is.

I got it to come back up but still no sound from ezdrummer, samples won’t play, can’t click on the drums. Yes the speaker button is turned on next to what you are talking about. I don’t understand how it can work in standalone and not in reaper

mate, this is probably a problem with how you have set up this in reaper. Set up your Ezdrummer in reaper, save the file, and then post your issue with the file in the reaper forum, many including myself can help you there.

Not sure if you’ve solved the issue or not. I was having same issue myself. After watching youtube demos and fighting with it for several hours I’ve got mine to work. Not sure exactly what I did either. The one thing different than what’s been discussed in this feed was setting EZD2 mixer to multichannel so that each individual piece of the drum kit has its own channel. I’m using 32 bit and had to rescan through reaper several times before it picked up EZD in the VST plugins. Luckily I didn’t have to reinstall anything.
