EZX Sample rate and bit depth

[Mac McCormick]

I have not been able to find this info on the Toontrack website or by Googling the question:

I just purchased the Dark Matter EZX and I’m wondering what the bit depth (16 or 24 bit) and sample rate (44100 or 48k) is when it’s being used in Superior Drummer 3.

I love the Dark Matter EZX so much that I would purchase the Death and Darkness SDX if the sample specs are better.

Thanks all!

Superior Drummer 3 version: 3.2.0
Operating system: Windows 10

Cubase Pro, Korg Kronos, M-50, Hammond XK-1c, Toontrack SD3, EZBass w/lots of expansions, many VSL Vi's, Shreddage 3 everything, and shit-tons of FX plugins.

I was just researching this as well. The best post I’ve found is this… https://www.toontrack.com/forums/topic/bit-depth-sample-rate-question/

Would be cool if someone came in to confirm what I’ve concluded…

I think EZD2 and EZXs are 44.1/16bit

I think Superior and SDXs are 44.1/24bit

Using an EZX with SD3, the EZX sounds are still 44.1/16bit

Samples are upconverted and stored in ram when you initially choose your EXZ/SDX, and individual instruments.

Sorry to thread-jack, Mac. Maybe this will get us both the answer.

Hi,

IIRC from an earlier thread a couple of years ago, Olle (coder) mentioned 1st gen EZX:s are 16bit, EZX2:s are in general 18bit while SDX are always 24bit.

Besides you mentioning newer EZXs are generally 18bit, I assume what else I’ve posted is correct. Thank you sir.
