Hi,
I’d like to have an overwiew (chart), that shows which kit is used with which factory preset (mix), but not only for sd3 core library, but also for all add on libraries, Metal Foundry for example. Where can I find?
I did not succeed to migrate my user saved presets (which xdrums) from sd2 into sd3. I think, this should trouble-free work for the money sd3 costs. I tried it, using combined presets saved in sd2 and open it in sd3. Strictly speaking, it has migrated, but more than the half is grey (not loaded) and missing and some instuments are at the wrong place. So I have to start from the beginning.
best regards
Could you attach that SD2 combined preset, so I can have a look at what goes wrong?

I’d like to do that. But answering to your mail is not possible and this file type to attach here is not allowed or doesn’t work.
Well, it seems like my answer vanished so here it is again.
Ok, I have had a look at them and I think I understand the problem.
If I load the s20-project, you sent, into SD2 and then save that as a combined preset and load that in SD3 then it all works.
However, the two combined presets you sent lack the ‘drum kit’ part and only contains X-drums. When you load them in SD2 that means that whatever drums you have loaded in the normal positions will remain so you only get a new set of X-drums. In SD3 that doesn’t work. What happens is instead that no drums are loaded for the normal positions. Then when the X-drums are added some of them are identified to correspond to normal positions and, since those are all unused, those X-drums claim those normal positions. The end result is that rather messy result you already know about where you have 6 X-drums to the left and the rest of them spread out over the normal drum kit.
The workaround is to load those X-drum-only presets inside SD2 and save new combined presets also containing the drum kit. Those will then happily load into SD3 and you can save them there as SD3 presets. Once you have them as SD3 presets you can load them but select to only load the X-drums and so you would get their old functionality back.
That is a difference between SD2 and SD3. In SD2 you can choose to only put some part of the state into a combined preset. In an SD3-preset you always save the whole state and then you choose what part of it to load when you load it

“If I load the s20-project, you sent, into SD2 and then save that as a combined preset and load that in SD3 then it all works.”
This was exactly what I’ve done… But there are many choice options in the sd2 combined preset saving window. I could not see ahead the meaning of all them without reading the manual. Maybe I’ve made some mistakes there? Which choices should be made, which not?
Thanks!
Easy! Just click the ‘All’ button.
More specifically, make sure that the ‘Drum Kit’ is checked.

Ok, now it works! The mistake was to check something on the right side of the combined saving window in SD2.
Only left side all!
Thanks!
What about my first question? An overview about all mixes used with which kit? I prefer some, how can I find the belonging mixes?
And: Is there another possibility to show additional drums / Instruments in the drums window? All in a row down may work, but it’s not pretty.
To move them to every place would be nice.
Thank you…
Ok, now it works!
Great!

No. Can’t say I remember hearing that one before.

No. That is another change from SD2 to SD3. On the other hand the normal drums have the look of the real sampled drums.
