Ok! Regarding the MIDI mapping – you can load SD2 MIDI mapping presets in SD3 – in Settings / MIDI In/E-drum

If you have groove on the song track, and right click > “Paste > Hi-hat” for example, the hi-hat will be added (and replace the old hi-hat from that groove). If you select “All” – the entire groove will be replaced…

You can select what MIDI channel to listen to, 1, 2, 3 …, 16 – or “All”. This is done in Settings / MIDI In/E-drums. MIDI learn won’t differentiate MIDI notes with the same number, but from different channels.

Do you play the TD-12 and TD-5 simultaneously?

You can’t place multiple grooves on top of each other on the song track.

Regarding 1 – Having the names of the MIDI grooves/fills from the Grooves panel be reflected on the MIDI regions used in a DAW would be extremely helpful. As of now, all DAW placed MIDI regions are named “MIDI Region” which makes it impossible to know what MIDI has been used.
  

That is one of the features we have already added. We’ll see when we can release this for you guys!

Ah ok. It is possible in SD3 too. Right click a groove > Copy. Right click a groove on track > Paste > select what part to paste. We will look into making it more visible, but in the meantime – this does the same thing 🙂

… Layer option in the SD2 Player … 

What option do you refer to here?

Both shift and cmd works 🙂 The difference is that shift clicking will select all blocks in between.

And by “X-drum”, Olof simply means “Add Instrument” in the Drums tab 🙂

All the parts of the same library has to be installed on the same location, e.g. you can’t, for example, install parts 1-3 on one disk, and parts 4-5 on another disk.

What I meant was to try to figure out if there’s a difference depending on what preset you had selected before the current one.

For example – is there a difference if you select “Yamaha” then “Generic” – in comparison to selecting “Roland” then “Generic”?

You are welcome! See my updated answer regarding part presets 🙂

Is there plans for a more detailed manual? I’m struggling with the online manual as it just doesn’t have enough information. I could do with a list of what exactly is saved with all the different places you can save things. Projects, Presets, Part Presets (Can’t see how to save a part preset) Midi In/Edrums preset.  

I’ll notify the manual writers about your request!

Until then, I can explain the above presets:
* Projects = This is everything you see in Superior Drummer 3, meaning that when you open a project – everything is restored as it was when you saved it (song track, drums, mixer, tracker, filter selections in Grooves etc).

* Presets = We call them “Drums and Mixer Presets” since that is what they contain – everything in the Drums tab and the Mixer tab.

* Part Presets – these presets has been used over the years in different EZX:s and SDX:s, so we have support for it in Superior Drummer 3. We have changed focus in Superior Drummer 3, and found it better for users to primarily save a Drums and Mixer preset and then be able to select what to load from that, rather than saving kits and mixers separately.
– Drum kits: these are only the drum kit part selections. When you load it, it will only swap the drum selections, and leave all the settings in the property boxes.
– Mixers: Some SDX:s and EZX:s has presets that only affects the mixer – those are placed here.

* Midi In/Edrums = it saves and loads everything you see and can change in the Midi In/Edrums settings page. MIDI mapping, velocity curves, CC zones etc.

I hope this clarifies things a bit 🙂

Hi, is there any possibility, how to merge two or more grooves into one in the bottom track?

Yes, select two (or more) grooves, right click and select “Merge”

Secondly: can be more tracks in grooves played simultaneously?

No, only one track at a time.
