This doesn’t make sense to me. Yes, it’s downloadable, copyrighted content, but it’s not possible to use it without a key. That key is clearly monitored by you as you claim to know the software has been installed and used. There’s no way of using the software/samples without a key. You won’t be able to use the same key twice, because on install, the program that monitors your installs will report back to base and immediately know the key is already used.  Also, if memory serves, you can’t even download without going through the installer. You can’t just go to the website and download a library, so you know exactly what’s going on here.

On  top of this, you clearly can offer time limited trials because you do it with with EZDrummer, EZKeys et al. So there is absolutely no technical reason why you can’t offer the same for sample libraries. I think you are harming your own potential sales by not offering it.

As I have stated above, the extensive demos are basically useless because you are not trying them in-situ. You’re listening to them in a different environment, on a web site, not on your DAW, with different instrumentation. You can get flavour of it, but not a proper test of how suitable it.

Also, there is the issue that you can transfer your licence to a different user (which is a great thing) for a  transfer fee, which again, shows any of this kind of thing is possible, you just choose not.

Your tag line above is:

Make Music it’s easy.

It really isn’t.

1. Direct

2. Big Rock Drums (although which pack is not relevant)

3, The former and I am not blaming the company for my mistake.

4. I fundamentally disagree on almost all of the rest. I listened to packs over and over again on the web site trying to judge what would work best for us.

In case this helps someone else: 74 seems to tbe the magic number for the controller value. once you hit that it really chokes the hi-hat, below that it’s not that senstiive in terms of how much it changes the sound. No idea whether something needs changing on the Roland kit to make sure it’s harder to hit that value or something in ezdrummer, but that seemed to have been the big issue here

If I look in the step editor it’s the same kind if thig, I can’t see anything changing in any of that infiormation that tells me why the hat is suddenly tighly closed. What is the control that suddenly makes the hi-hat closed up? I see no CC4 values in the step editor, but I do see Foot Contol whose value chamges little throughout the song. What am I needing to find/ look for and change here?

 

I also don’t understand why (and this separate to the closed hat thing) soetimes the hi-hat is played as D0 and sopmetimes as A#1.
