I’m in the same boat as @IzeBMusic with tons of sounds (no need for them). I want the functionality of EZKeys and already own EZDrummer 2, so if I were to purchase only an EZKeys MIDI pack such as https://www.toontrack.com/product/hip-hop-ezkeys-midi/ would it be useless?

And yet your own documentation that comes with EZKeys refers to the EZKeys player which downloads as a part of the products and operates as a plug in VST, and yet you say this is no such thing? I know I certainly can’t find such a thing from the downloaded files.

And THIS is the key reason I abandoned Toontrack products years ago.  They just don’t seem like keeping things updated or rejuvinating them in such a way that they nicely integrate into the modern DAW environments.  They seem to like to exist in their own little world doing their own little thing.  I decided to take a chance after about 10 years of abandoning my EZ Drummer stuff for more modern integratable plugins and purchased EZKeys.  Standalone it’s a great little program, but has little ability to seamlessly integrate as a common plugin such as a VST3.  Instead I’m finding out through their supplied documentation that the only integration it supports is through YFSG (Your Favorite Sound Generator) which is nowhere to be found even googling it.

I’ll hand it to them, the boys in the backroom who still live at home with their parents, wearing their Metallica t-shirts and chewing on KitKat bars can do some good work if they decide to, but certainly have no allegiance to an installed base of product owners apparently.
