Doug MillerBluesdelux: Thanks for the reply.
Re the Crash cymbal, I essentially did what you are suggesting in reverse. I cut the section where I wanted the crash down to one measure, then pasted the crash only onto that measure.
RE volume, In this instance, I was looking to simply lower the level of a short series of loops in a specific part of the song, not the entire song. I did try the velocity knob, but was unable to detect any difference. For what it’s worth, another post on this forum had a similar question about the velocity knob. Ultimately, I just used another loop, though it sees like there should be a way to do what I wanted to.
The plug in sounds great and I am continuing to make headway using it, but I wish there was more specific information on how to use it. Just out of curiosity, does EZ drummer 3 address any of these issues?

I’m not sure if Superior Drummer 3 would address that issue or not, I’m not familiar with it. I just know it’s much more robust than EZD2. If I stumble on anything relative to your issues since I’ve been experimenting as well, I’ll post any findings. I agree with you, there could be an easier way to edit notes. Maybe the Toontrack folks are thinking advanced edits can be made in the DAWs.
Doug MillerI’d like to lower the volume of a section of the track a few DB to reflect the emotion of the song but I don’t see a master volume pot on the Mixer section.
Shy of manually lowering each channel is there a simpler more effective way to do this?
Did you try using the volume slider, lower right corner of the main interface? It changes the overall volume to the entire song though. Maybe try the velocity knob, if it’s only for a specific section. I’m new to EZD2 as well!
Doug MillerHey Ginridge,
Regarding your 3 measure loop crash issue, you can remove individual notes. You might have to split your loop though. Split your loop according to where you want and don’t want the cymbal. Select the loop where you don’t want the cymbal, right click it, and within the context menu you’ll see “Remove Notes”, select it and you’ll see a pull out menu listing which notes to remove, cymbal is one of them. Page 23 of the manual briefly explains it. Hope this helps!
