Tap-2-find Metronome malfunctioning

[mollotov]

Hi,

I’m using EZDrummer 2 with FL Studio 12, and I have this weird issue with the tap to find feature. On whatever settings I use, the metronome is not regularly giving out 4 beats, but in fact, does almost the exact opposite. Its hard to describe. I believe the time intervalls would be correct, it just leaves out random beats.

To make it a bit more understandable, if the normal signal was: 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4 .. etc. It instead goes something like: 1,2 ,- -,1,-,-,-1,- 3,-,1,2,-, 4, – …..

Any Idea what I can do? Its really annoying and messing up my searches!

Hi,

it has something to do with FL Studio 12 VST Wrapping, it seems. I get it too and the only way for me to get rid of it is to go to the VST Wrapper Settings and click ‘use fixed size buffers’, like in the attached screen shot.
I am running FL Studio 64-bit and loading the 64-bit plugin of EZdrummer 2.

Are you running 32-bit or 64-bit FL Studio?
Are you loading the 32-bit or 64-bit version of EZdrummer 2?

BR,
John

Thanks, this worked for me! Im using the 64bit versions of both as well.
On this occasion I’ve noticed, that in my settings “allow threaded processing” is unchecked while “send loop position” and “process inactive inputs and outputs” are checked. Which is different to yours. Out of curiosity, would it be better to match your settings?

Well, I am not an avid FL Studio user, as I am mainly a Mac guy (and they still have a lot to fix on their Mac port but they’re getting there) but I think “allow threaded processing” and “send loop position” could be checked and “process inactive inputs and outputs” can be off.
