Good question regarding the “extended” articulations. I have no idea since I have not really a glue about midi. One of my BeatBuddies modified a EZD2 drum midi file and he mentioned: “It’s crazy how many kinds of ‘hats they use.. just moved them all to 42 (closed) and 46 (open)”. And I have to say for me it sounds ok then in BB, almost like in EZD2.
If I feed EZD2 with a GM drum file and modify it, what articulations would change it to a extended midi file? Or in other words if I load a GM file and just cut and save it would it still be a GM file? In this case I tend to buy the EZD2 software and the midi files from GroovMonkee.
I see the extended GM is a problem which many (potential) EZD2 user have (see also my BeatBuddy post). Wouldn’t it be possible to add a function in the software like “save as GM” similar to Word where I can save as docx or doc? You would open up EZD for huge new customer group!
