    Hi,

    you’re not supposed to launch EZdrummer 2 in Toontrack solo, it has its own Standalone application. Did you install both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions?
    You can always perform a Search on your system for ‘ezdrummer.dll’ and delete any entries that show up.
    Then reinstall the 2.0.2 update(s).
    The latest available Toontrack solo version is found on the updates tab for Superior 2.

    Thanks John. Because of my particular sound-card installation (Line 6 ASIO TonePort UX2) I can only run both My Guitar Rig5, and EZdrums 2 outside of the DAW by using Toontrack Solo for the drums. No do I need the 32bit version?

    Thanks for your response.

    So because of your setup, you can’t run the EZdrummer 2 Standalone but you can run Toontrack solo? That sounds strange…
    If you don’t run any 32-bit applications at all that have the need for the 32-bit version of EZdrummer 2, you don’t need it.
    You run Reaper 64-bit, I presume?

    No John not exactly. I can run the stand alone version of EZdrummer. But then when I try to run the stand alone version of Guitar Rig5 with both applications sharing the TonePort UX2 sound card, the application I open second will list the sound device as “not present”. But ..if I open the EZdrummer2 in Solo, then when I open the GR5
    standalone application it will share the sound-card. I guess, as it also uses the ASIO TonePort driver (also) at this point. I do run the Reaper 64bit so no need to bridge.

    Why don’t you run everything in Reaper?

    Sometimes I just want to jam to some drums without going through the process; open Reaper wait>hit new project>wait> click insert virtual instrement on a new track>wait> select EZdrummer from the list, click insert new track>wait Click the record button on the new track >click the monitor button on same track > click the insert button (again same track) >wait select GuitarRig 5 from list. Finally… I’m ready to jam to whatever beat, and tone I choose! Quite a longer process than clicking the Solo Icon from the taskbar then the GuitarRig5 from the same TB.Laugh

    Or, you could open Reaper and just make all the settings once and save a Reaper project. Then just click and open the Reaper project file. One click.

    Exellent! Sometimes the simplest things elude me! That is exactly what I will do, only… save it as a template. I think that would work better for me. Same difference?

    Thanks Scott.

    Usually a template is used so you can open your DAW and start a project with the same effects/track count/etc. without having to set it up every time. Not sure if making a Template in Reaper is any faster than just saving a Project file (.rpp file). I think Reaper templates are saved as .rpp files anyway.

    Yea, I can see your point. I’ll have to look into the Project file idea. Basically I would make the initial set-up then pick a name such as “Jam project” then open it every-time to achieve what I have been doing from the Taskbar?

    I have a Reaper project file on my Desktop called ‘Jam’. It is a Project save file with the instruments, routing, and effects I want. Then, I just click on it and it opens Reaper and load that project.
