When you click a keyboard button in Kontakt, can you hear a drum sound?

When you click a keyboard button in the Reaper MIDI editing window for this track, can you hear a drum sound?

I did find that with both EZPlayer and Kontakt on the same track, I had to either bypass EZPlayer or set the mapping to Thru when playing the converted MIDI file from the host MIDI track to get it to play, because it is in effect double re-mapping it. Auditioning MIDI directly from EZPlayer worked fine.

When you drag it from EZPlayer to the host, it’s converting from TT format to NI (GM) format. Then when you play that host MIDI track it goes again through EZKeys, which it seems it’s converting TT to GM again or just muting it, so in effect messes it up and this is where I hear nothing.

Seem like the manual is incomplete.

I would actually consider setting it up like with Cubase and having one track for EZPlayer and one track for Kontakt. The EZPlayer MIDI track feeds into the Kontakt MIDI track, allowing you to audition correctly. The difference is then that you drag the MIDI from EZPlayer onto the Kontakt track, correctly converting it, but then it doesn’t go through EZKeys again, it goes straight into Kontakt. This method would make it so that you didn’t have to keep switching EZPlayer off and on as you go back and forth.

Auditioning MIDI directly from EZPlayer worked fine. NO !! no matter if i set it to Thru or iMap extented which i used.

also reaper plays dragged midi !! (from Ezplayer)

i tryed to set up a track with ezp only… same.. i cannot hear midi directly from ezp.
