Latin Percussion EZX

[Dan Maynard]

Latin Percussion isn’t showing in the program files (default install to C:Programfiles(x86)ToontrackEZDrummer) after the update to EZD2. Although it is in the library, the sounds are not the Latin instruments but rather tinkling on a regular drum set. It isn’t changing the graphic. It plays just fine, I guess, in Superior and the graphic appears as well. I removed and re-installed but it didn’t help. I am starting to think the EZD 2 was not such a good idea as I have had other problems as well. It doesn’t seem to play as well with Superior Drummer as EZD 1 did..

Please advise

Please use the ‘Check for updates’ function in the EZdrummer 2 menu to make sure all your libraries are up to date.
Superior 2 needs an update to 2.4.0 to work correctly with the EZdrummer 2 libraries. It is due to be released any day now.

I uninstalled LP and re-installed from the original disk to the current version. While doing that I noticed I had not yet downloaded TT288 so I did that as well. I am not sure what TT288 should be showing as in the library files but there is a pop rock 1 in there under EXZ’s. Should there be something else?

There is no change to Latin Percussion in EZD 2. It is not picking up the actual instrument sounds that are supposed to be in LP, eg. bongos, congas, etc. the hits are there but only the white drum set is showing but only making cymbal noises.

There is no other graphics except the white drum set. How come the graphics (different instruments) don’t change for any of the EZX’s?

So these are the current 2 problems.

Previously I mentioned that all of this stuff works in Superior Drummer and that all of the EZD files are being loaded into C:Program Files (x86)ToontrackEZDrummer.
The .dll file is in that directory and Cubase is pointed to it.
I use Cubase 7.5 64 bit on a Windows 7 Home Premium computer.

On another note, how come I am not getting the Email notices from this forum anymore?

Thanx!

I think you are mixing up MIDI grooves with the actual EZX:s. You need to switch library also; click where it says ‘Basic’ in the upper right corner of the plugin, right next to the Menu and switch to the Latin Percussion EZX.

Thank you for your help. Have to click on the drums button first then the big orange button. I didn’t see that mentioned in the manual or the online and you tube tutorials. Must have missed it. Everything works fine so I probably won;t have any questions until the new Superior version comes out.

Hi,

doing it that way switches out kit pieces but doing it the way described switches the entire library
