Hi there this still seems to be problematic. I am using the ‘Toontrack Product Manager’ to go by-the-book.

I have installed 3.0.6 of the ‘EZ Drummer 3 – Upgrade’

I have ‘EZ Drummer 3 Core Library’ 1.0.0 installed afresh.

I have downloaded ‘sound library update for Windows’ 1.0.1.

Log files for the successful 1.0.0 install and subsequent problematic 1.0.1 install below (as are screenshots):

Any ideas chaps??? At the moment it seems only 1 kit works due to this and the rest are silent.

Sorry for the late reply John – like I say the notes that ezd2 expects the ride and hats to use do not clash.
The TD-20 ride produces exactly and only the notes required of it(actually by default).
So I do not know how the ride could be triggering the hats – but someone at Toontrack does (as someone was able to create a preset which avoids that!)
Only problem is that the Roland default limits the number of cymbals which can be used. Any chance you can investigate the difference between the default and roland settings? There is something /other/ than note numbers going on I think. I wonder if some kind of core patch to EZD2 is needed?

I have attached screenshots of my hat and ride note numbers in case it helps in any way…

I cannot really move to Superior Drummer – I have invested A LOT in soundpacks and this is my only problem!

Thanks!

Dan

Ah ha. Indeed. Thankyou!!!
BUT
I’d love to use ‘none’ but very strangely the ride activates the hats on that setting (even though they share absolutely no note numbers – Ride is 51+53, Hats are in the 20’s/40’s and 60’s).
Interestingly the Hats do not activate the ride though!
Can you think why this might be?
I am more than happy to build a kit from scratch as long as I can get over that hurdle. It seems Toontrack must know about this quirk as they were able to build around it (turn on the Roland setting and all is well).
When the Roland setting is on it’s not as if the Ride 51+53 are redirected or the Hats either.

Thoughts?!?

[danierusan]

Ignore my comment. The Roland kit preset within ezd2 is perfectly adequate – just a matter of using it!!!

[danierusan]

Have noticed the same thing with EZD2.
Once the VH-12 offset has been configured as per the manual for the TD-20, if the high-hat is physically closed (clutch loose/under its own weight) the midi note sent codes for a very open hat ‘open 3’.
More importantly there seems to be very little finesse / optimisation within EZD2 for what the VH-12/TD-20 is sending under default TD-20 settings.
Anyone got any suggestions for config or fancy tweaking the code for this (fairly common) setup?
