    I had a time figuring this out too. What I ended up doing was to put the Urgritone folders into a place that I knew already contained Toontrack MIDI grooves. For me that was C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Toontrack\EZDrummer. I started with EZDrummer and then ‘graduated’ to Superior Drummer. And now that I notice it, all my MIDI grooves are in an EZ Drummer Folder.

    So another option would be; in the SD3 grooves tab look to see of you have “User MIDI” folder at the very end of the Superior Libraries list on the very left of that tab. If you find it, right click on it and choose “Open in Explorer” That’s the folder you should put them in.

    Also, you could always locate an existing Toontrack MIDI pack in that same list, right click on it, do the “Open in Explorer” thing and drag your urgritone grooves in there.

    Just put them in some folder that you know already contains MIDI grooves and then close and relaunch SD3.

    Let me know how it works out!

    Hi,

    please do NOT manually change anything in the Folder structure.

    Both EZdrummer 2 and Superior Drummer 3 offer a way to add folders to the Groove Browsers:

    In EZdrummer 2 you go into Settings > MIDI Libraries… and then click ‘Add Folder to User Libraries’. Navigate to your Ugritone folder and Open.
    However, EZdrummer 2 needs at least GM formatted or Toontrack GM Extended formatted MIDI to work as expected.

    In Superior Drummer 3, you open the GROOVES page and click the ‘Grooves’ button in the upper left corner, then ‘Folders > Add Linked Folder’.
    Navigate to and open the folder containing your 3rd party MIDI.
    In SD3, you can specify the format of the MIDI in a Linked folder, so it can actually be something else than GM or Toontrack.

    I hope this clarifies,
    John

    I didn’t know that. I know, RTFM 🙂

    However, my way did work, but your is much, much, (much) easier!

    P.S. I should have known that. It seems that with Toontrack products there’s usually an easy and elegant way to do almost anything.
