    It’s not referring to your version of Product Manager.
    It is referring to a required version of EZDrummer or SuperiorDrummer,

    A working EZdrummer 2.1.2 (or above) or a Superior Drummer 2.4.4 (or above) installationis required to run your Alt Rock EZXpansion, as noted in its product description.
    Product Manager should display a ‘Needs Updated‘ prompt for EZDrummer…

    I like to install my just bought product.  Alt Rock EZX.   When I try try to install the message appears “Upgrade toontrack software to latest version”

     

    I installed the latest version of the Product Manager.

    What should I do?

    Operating system: Windows 10

    The error isn’t referring to product manager. What version of EZD2 are you running? Does Product Manager show there is an update available? If so, have you run the update?

    EZXs require EZD2 or Superior Drummer 3 to work. Which do you have and is it updated?

    The Product Description page for the Reggae EZX states (link):
    SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS.
    1.2 GB of free hard disk space, 2 GB RAM.
    A working EZdrummer 2 or a Superior Drummer 2.4 (or above) installation.

    • The Reggae EZX is an expansion library for EZDrummer2, SuperiorDrummer2 and/or SuperiorDrummer3.
    • What version of EZDrummer2, SuperiorDrummer2 and/or SuperiorDrummer3 are you running?
    • Does Product Manager show there is an update available for EZDrummer or SuperiorDrummer?
      If so, have you run the update?

    Same issue as everyone else. I spent $300 to buy a package that included: Dark Matter EZX, Jazz EZX and Progressive EZX. Plus I got the add ons Progressive Fusion MIDI and Seventies Prog Grooves…and I’m getting nowhere.

    The seemingly ubiquitous ‘you need to upgrade your Toontrack software to the latest version before you can install this product’. I’ve tried everything that I can think of and now don’t know what to do. When you buy a package of software, do you not automatically get the version of the actual EZdrummer software that you need??

    Can anyone help, and why hasn’t this issue been provided a simpler solution, since it seems to be catching so many people?

    The issue is that customers are purchasing expansion packs (EZXs) without first having the base product (EZD2 or S3).

    Each EZX states that:
    SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS.
    3 GB free disk space, 2 GB RAM (4 GB recommended).

    A working EZdrummer 2.x.x or Superior Drummer 3.x.x (or above) installation.

    Well, thanks for responding, Scott. Judging by the number of people being tripped up by this, I would say that it is not crystal clear that the bundles don’t come with EZ drummer itself. I certainly thought that the bundles came with it. My mistake.

    The only EZdrummer Line bundle that doesn’t come with EZD2 is the EZX Value Bundle that is EZX (expansion packs) only. The rest of the bundles come with EZD2.

    Hi,

    I can not install any of my products because it keeps saying the PM needs to be updated. Fair enough, but nowhere whatsoever within the PM is there a red button prompting me to update?

    I have literally spent 100’s of $ on Toontracks products and can’t even use any of them! Unbelievable, in this day and age.

    As in the past, when I open the Product Manager, it does a “Check for Updates” scan
    that was too fast for me to capture a screenshot.

    Subsequently, it found my installation of Product Manager to be out-of-date
    and prompted me for an update, shown in the screenshot below.

    PS. Upon downloading, installing & relaunching Product Manager,
    a 2nd update was prompted. Clicked [Install & Relaunch] once more and Product Manager opened,
    revealing my purchases.

    Hi Scott,

     

    OK, thanks a lot. I’ll try a re-installation . . .

     

    Cheers.

    Have you installed the latest version of EZD2? What version number shows on the EZD2 interface?
