Got it (sort of). The routing stuff can get real confusing real fast so the idea of routing into the SD mixer is a new concept for me but good to know…I was thinking of it as an isolated thing…a program within your DAW, if you will.
Thanks. I just didn’t know if most folks actually used the stuff built into SD or not.
Hmmm. How would I record from the module? Wouldn’t that involve going through something like EZD, therefore being “interpreted” by EZD?
V 2.1.8
Yes, standalone (I have Logic too but didn’t see the point in going through it just play vs recording). Roland preset seems to help (maybe my imagination). You meant under MIDI mapping right?
Also messed with response curve for hat, put it on more closed setting. Seems to help. Still maybe a little weird but better.
will report back if still bothering me.
I understand those things…I’m just wondering what velocity number represents, in real life how hard a heavy hitter is hitting. Think Nirvana, STP, Alice in Chains, Guns n Roses…what “velocity” would those guys be hitting at when one of the heavier songs really gets cooking? There has to be some range with some consistency between them. Is 127 hitting so hard you’d injure your hand in real life if you did it more than a few times a night or is that just another day at the office for those guys? Is 100 a gentle tap for a hard rock drummer? That’s the kind of thing I’m trying to get at. Since I’m not a drummer and don’t have an e-kit to experiment with I’m kind of fumbling in the dark with this stuff.
Ok I’m a doofus. . .that was a different EZD2 update that I’d applied earlier (core library something something), not the 2.1.1. Got it this time. Looks like I have my muted cymbals back!
However, tried installing that pop/rock update and still get that “damaged library” message even after the 2.1.1 update.
just tried updating…hasnt helped. those hits are still missing.
i saw i had an update for the pop/rock ezx as well, wouldnt let me install it saying the “library was damaged” and that i need to reinstall the full product.
i see now that in the “about ezdrummer” box it says its now standalone version 2.1.1 but plugin version 2.0.2. is that what its supposed to be?
hmmm. no luck for me. furthermore, when i open the cymbals in the interface and go to “details” there is no note for mute…only crashed.
maybe just scrap and reinstall? can i do it from scratch even though its an upgrade?


ah! ok thanks. so in the rock solid midi layout some of those (including the muted ones) are greyed out. does that mean anything?
tried your idea about starting new project. in the new project, the default ezd2 stock kit has muted cymbals on 1 and 2, but still not on the pop rock or rock solid cymbals i tried.
any new advice? i found a few google docs linked to from this forum that may be the MIDI layout doc youre talking about, but see blamk entries for the cells representing the numbers listed above. at any rate, already scrolled all the way up and down the piano roll without finding those choked off cymbals so they seem to have somehow been replaces with the regular cymbal samples. anything to be done? thanks.
Thanks. Can you elaborate? I’m not sure what you’re referring to.. I’ve scrolled through the piano roll in Logic Pro X to the very top/bottom without coming across those samples.
Ok, I tried changing of the problem cymbals to the original Pop/rock cymbals from EZD1 that most definitely had that choked off sample, and it’s not working either. That’s weird.
Thanks. . .not sure how to get to that window. Under my account there’s “my products”, “register product”, “my info” and “log out”, nothing about downloads/authoraztions/updates. Until today I didn’t have any registered products (yes EZdrummer was purchased legitimately). Found the old email where I got my EZD info (computer code, authorization code), but I get “invalid serial number” when I paste it in there.
