El Fundo….and there are no electronic drum sounds, at least no that I can find anywhere. So I purchased EDM Grooves and was disappointed to find no sounds there as well. I do like the sound of the drum kits in EZ Drummer 3 though, but I was hoping for EDM-type drum sounds. Am I doing something wrong?

Hi there,
Correct the core EZD3 kits are acoustic as opposed to electronic.
Grooves are MIDI patterns or drum patterns, not samples.
A few EZXs (EZDrummer Extensions) to consider;

El FundoThanks Brad. I was led to believe from the earliest promos that there are more than just acoustic kits included. Now I just have to decide which of those extensions to get first. Do you have a favorite?
Scott EshlemanThe EZDrummer3 base product includes 7 drum kits recorded in 3 rooms.
The product page makes no mention of including electronic drums.
In fact, the Comparison page explicitly notes that electronic drums ARE NOT included with EZDrummer3.
Regarding the EDM GROOVES product… I believe the product to which you are referring is a DRUM MIDI pack.
DRUM MIDI packs contain NO drum samples; acoustic or electronic.

It’s important to remember that MIDI isn’t audio; it’s data. MIDI creates no sounds; it’s a computer language that triggers sounds. It’s like the piano roll in a player piano — the piano roll itself doesn’t create sound. It only triggers notes on the piano, which, like a tone generator, plays the actual sounds.

If you want electronic drum sounds, you should explore Toontracks’ EZX sound library expansion sets.

The EDM Grooves MIDI pack was created with some of our less acoustic-sounding products, such as the Dance EZX, Electronic Edge EZX and Dream Pop EZX, in mind. Although it utilizes many of the special articulations specifically found in some of these titles, with some minor tweaking it works with any EZX or SDX – which of course is the beauty of MIDI.

BradThanks Brad. I was led to believe from the earliest promos that there are more than just acoustic kits included. Now I just have to decide which of those extensions to get first. Do you have a favorite?
No I don’t have a favourite as it’s not a genre I work much in. I believe Electronic Edge is the latest.
Listen to the demos and read the product info on each one would be my advice.
