The Classic! Midi Pack update not downloading?

[TheProfessor]

Hey there, so all my other Midi packs have the MIDI 1.20 download, and then an additional download, I’m assuming the update for EZD2.

With The Classic! Midi, it says I have an update, but the update link just downloads the original 1.20 zip file. Is this a mistake, or is there no update for The Classic! ?

Hi,

there should be an 1.5.0 update in your account. You sure there isn’t?

It TELLS me there is an update, but downloads the 1.2 file.

Again, this is just the MIDI pack, not the kit, but it has an update on 5-5-2014, but it just downloads the original 1.2 file.

All my other MIDI packs have the 1.2 and then another update to download.

OK, let me investigate.

OK,

you have the Classic MIDI Pack, not the Classic EZX MIDI, so the latest version for you is indeed 1.2.0.
If you run the check for updates’ function in EZdrummer 2, does it tell you it needs updating?

I did the check for updates, and it only showed updates for EZD, and the Pop! kit.

But every other MIDI pack has another download that isnt the 1.2 file. ALL of my other MIDI packs do, I can even take a picture of my folder with all these in them to show you. Classic! says there’s an update, but it only gives me the original 1.2 file, which is the same file I get on the link below the activation key. It makes no sense that there would be 2 links, 2 inches apart that are the SAME file when every other MIDI pack is a different file there.

Then you only need to update EZdrummer (plugin + Sound library) and the Pop! kit, these are the 2 most recent updates.
If you still are in doubt, just use the included uninstaller from the update download and then reinstall the update.
No worries.

No no, you’re still not understanding what I’m saying.

Can you fill me in on when the Classic 1.20 update came out? The DATE it came out.

If it was BEFORE 5-5-14, then you have a false link in your MIDI section that tells me there IS in fact a 5-5-14 update, LIKE THERE APPEARS TO BE ON EVERY OTHER MIDI PACK THAT HAS THAT 5-5-14 UPDATE.

The problem is, every other MIDI pack LETS ME DOWNLOAD THAT 5-5-14 UPDATE, AND IT IS A NEW FILE, IE AN UPDATE. With the Classic pack, it is NOT A NEW FILE. Meaning you have the WRONG FILE IN PLACE or you have a mistake listing a 5-5-14 update on a pack that doesn’t have one.

Considering ALL my other MIDI packs also had the 5-5-14 update when EZD2 came out, I’m inclined to think you have the wrong link listed in the update section.

Do I need to walk you thru how to navigate your own page and tell you how to see what I’m talking about?

Hi,

I spoke again with the guy putting together, maintaining and placing the MIDI packs on the server and he confirmed that the MIDI packs uploaded are correct.
Due to their nature and size, the Update and Full product are the very same archive. I guess it would take more energy making an actual updater for MIDI packs. The ‘Update’ flag makes you aware that since the initial release, the pack has been updated but there is no point in letting you download an old version of a MIDI pack.
This is valid for all MIDI packs.

I hope this clears things up.

BR,
John
