Open articulations ending with a 0 are usually hats with loosened clutch, so it’s a special case in the sequence of open articulations!

It would be really useful to right click a channel strip and copy all settings so I can paste it into another channel strip. That way I can set up one tom channel and just tweak the eq afterwards.
Another similar thing would be a copy function on a plug-in so I can just copy one of them.

You can save a user preset and load that to the other tom channels, but your idea would be nice feature, and more handy in some situations.

I’ve managed to get the cowbell on the hoop of a tom, but I have to change midi map preset to go back to a previous state. It’d be great to save each kit with the stuff I want in it without changing the midi map every time.

I’m not sure I’m following you here. You add a tambourine to a tom’s Rimshot – and the MIDI mapping changes after that?

BTW, when I try to “select parts” to just load a mixer only part from another preset to the one I already have loaded, it immediately loads everything from that preset. The UI changes immediately showing the drums from the source preset that I’m trying to just extract the mixer from. Even if I then unselect the “load drums” tab, it’s too late, the drums have already been replaced. Maybe I’m doing something wrong, but it doesn’t seem to be working.

Pressing the menu entry “Select Parts…” should not load the preset. This is a bug, that will be fixed in a coming update.
Until then – you can press alt key on your keyboard + click on the preset. This is a shortcut to get in to Select Parts without having to go through the menu, and it’s right now a workaround for the bug.

Nice catch! I’ll discuss this with my co-workers and get back on the subject…

This is really the “Pre-sales only” forum, ment for questions before a purchase – you’ll find more posts etc. in https://www.toontrack.com/forum/superior-drummer-3-help 🙂

1) The MM EZX 19″ Zildjian Medium Thin Prototype Crash doesn’t have a cymbal stand – it just floats there (no big deal really)

Nice catch! I’ll report it to the graphic dudes!

2) The Bleed panel for MM EZX Amb Mono channel only shows the cymbals as being installed, the drums say not installed or found however if I solo the channel I can hear them. They are there in SD2. Because of this I can’t adjust the levels.

This is a bug that we have fixed, and will release a fix for as soon as possible.

3) There are least needs to be an option to view/enter midi notes as notes rather than midi numbers. It makes it hard to make a drum map in cubase without seeing the notes.

In the Drums Tab > MIDI Mapping property box – there is a menu (three horizontal lines on top right edge). Press that and select “Show Keys” – that will show the key names (instead of numbers) in the MIDI Mapping box, and in MIDI Mapping Keys. We will add this option the ”Settings / MIDI In/E-drums” too in a coming update.

4) The preview instrument function needs added from SD2

The preview instrument function can be found in Search for Instruments. You can quickly access that by pressing ctrl + R (alt + R on Mac) in the Drums tab.
– Notice that you need to enable Keyboard Shortcuts in Settings > General, if you are using SD3 in a DAW…
In Search for Instruments you can preview instruments (by clicking on a row), load them (press the blue button in lower right corner), load them without closing Search for Instruments (press Replace button, left of each instrument), stack etc. Lots of options are also put in the More menu, bottom right corner.

When you get a hang of the work flow, it is quicker, and more flexible, than SD2 🙂

…However… This page lacks the option to use either numbers or MIDI notes. Especially for use in a DAW environment, and keeping in line with the maps I’ve previously saved, seeing the MIDI notes on the MIDI in/E-drums page would come in a lot more handy…

Yes, that can be a tricky situation for the users. We will fix it for a coming update!
