Not sure on that album, but Alex used Simmons drum sounds triggered through his acoustic set more than a lot of people are aware of.

In my experience, a MIDI drum pattern that works with EZDrummer will work with Superior Drummer.

Thank you for replying again. I’m just using Cubase LE4, so I can’t have each piece of drum kit going to a separate aux track in a feasible manner. I figure SD3 is just a matter of time. It seems odd to me EZD2 has features that SD2 does not.

David,
Thank you for replying. The audio demo for The Warehouse did not sound very different than Rock Solid EZX for me. I have never owned any SDX’s.

sar,
Were you able to get authorization on your EZDrummer? If a toontrack guy doesn’t help you on this thread, you should start a new thread on the EZDrummer Help forum, but you have to prove you bought a toontrack product before you get past these pre-sale forums. I don’t believe you have to un-install Superior Drummer to make EZDrummer work, but I’m not sure. I’m 99% sure you don’t use the Superior Drummer discs unless you payed for Superior Drummer (I have never seen it less than about $150 at Guitar Center). Have you found a manual for EZDrummer on this website yet? I don’t know what you mean by “save the ezdrummer or run”. You download most or all of EZDrummer off the internet (I think), and then it saves itself automatically in particular files in your computer. I have never used Ableton, I use Cubase LE4. If recording stuff, I would typically open Cubase, then open a track that starts up EZDrummer & go from there. I can’t remember all the steps, because I haven’t done it much & I’m often fumbling around trying to figure things out.

sar2547,
Is this the first time you bought a toontrack product?

Scott,
I appreciate your humor. But now I’m confused. The primary reason I bought EZDrummer was to get different drum patterns than what I have already for Superior Drummer 2. I just compared the 2, and all the MIDI drum patterns look/sound the same to me. I’m I missing something or doing something wrong? Or is it that both EZDrummer & Superior Drummer 2 are now sharing the same EZD LIBRARIES and they are the combined total of the 2 drum softwares?

I’m not saying yours won’t work, but in my experience, the people at Guitar Center don’t always know what they are talking about. When I bought Superior Drummer 2 (several months ago), Guitar Center said the actual Superior Drummer 2 program came 100% from the internet. But it came with 7 discs! It came with an EZDrummer disk & I wasted a lot of time downloading it because I thought it needed to be downloaded for Superior Drummer 2 to work. If you didn’t pay for Superior Drummer, most likely the discs are useless unless you pay more money to toontrack. I was confused by this for days. When I bought EZDrummer for $30 yesterday, Guitar Center gave me a single disc (it said EZDrummer on the disc). I’m glad they didn’t give me more disks because I would have been confused once again.

John,
My smart wife got it working! I thought an un-install would throw everything EZDrummer in the trash. I was wrong. I’m OK now. The re-install worked. Thank You!!

John,
Thank you for responding! I don’t know if part of my problem was doing this: in my REGISTER NEW PRODUCT section, I did: Download Product: MAC (the red virtual button) before I did the authorization. It downloaded from the internet more than a gigabyte, and it took more than 3 hours. Should I un-install part or all of the new EZDrummer items, and download them again?
