I’m trying to authorize my EZ Drummer and need my computer ID but the window never poped up with the information. Is there a way to retrieve it so I can continue?
What host are you loading EZD into? The authorization screen should pop up each and every time you try to load EZD until it is authorized. Are you saying it is working now (samples load/play fine) even though you didn’t authorize it?
Can you please fill in your system specs on your member profile page and include your OS (32-bit or 64-bit), your host DAW (32-bit or 64-bit) and whether you are running 32-bit or 64-bit EZdrummer.

I must have had it loaded wrong. I’ve got it going now and I’m using Reaper. I can drag and drop in Reaper but I can’t get any sound. I can see the levels moving but I get nothing. The sound works fine in EZdrummer though. Any ideas?
Here’s how to load EZD in Reaper:
– Click ‘Track’
– Click ‘Insert Virtual Instrument on new track’
– Click ‘Instrument’ in far left column
– Click ‘VSTi: Dfh Sampler (Toontrack) (16 out)
– Click ‘OK’
– A pop up menu will load and ask if you want Reaper to build 16 outputs. For now click ‘Cancel’ instead of ‘OK’. This will get you started.
– EZdrummer will open
As long as you have your sound preferences set in Reaper (ie you are able to hear sounds not just from EZdrummer), you should be able to drag and drop MIDI grooves from EZD onto your MIDI track.

Yes! It’s working now. Is there a way to keep that saved on Reaper so I don’t have to reset it up everytime I go back on?
File > Project Templates > Save project as template…
You can also set up a default project for Reaper to automatically load every time on startup under Preferences (Ctrl-P on Windows) > Project > “Project settings” > “When creating new projects, use the following project file as a template:” > and browse to any saved Reaper project you want to use.
If I’m not using a template, I’ll usually load VSTs up by clicking on the… thing… …I don’t know what it’s called… in Reaper, above the track in the Mixer (you might need to stretch your view to see this area)… here’s a vid I did a while ago showing that with Superior (was showing something about the Bounce feature in the vid).

Pulls up the VST in two clicks and two double-clicks.

Awesome. My next question is how do I add a crash to a particular point of the song?
