How come when you hit Record and Play both in the EZD window there is no click?
 

The design behind this is based on the idea that if you use the record function in your DAW, you can also use the click from the DAW. Like logic – it has its own metronome.

Also, notice if you hit Record instead in the Logic window, your pattern information shows up only in the Logic window. It doesn’t show in the EZD window. As a newbie, I’m trying to figure out if I wanna do all my recording/arranging in the plug-in window and then drag it over to Logic (mostly cause the EZD window seems easy to use compared to doing it in Logic)–or if I should just be hitting Record in Logic and building/arranging patterns directly in the Logic window. Thanks for any help! 
 

There is no right and wrong here, but you can always record into EZdrummer 2, because in there you can use Edit Play Style, Song Creator, and other features EZdrummer 2 offers. You can after that keep it in EZdrummer 2 – or drag it into Logic. Just remember to disable “Follow Host” if you have MIDI both in Logic and EZdrummer 2, or else you’ll end up with MIDI being played from 2 places at once 🙂

If you want to get MIDI blocks from Logic back to EZdrummer 2, the easiest way is to record enable EZdrummer 2 and press play in Logic. In that way, what you play from Logic is recorded into the song track of EZdrummer 2.

Does this answer your questions?

Yes, just right click on the snare when you are in Edit Play Style, and you can change the articulation 🙂

The chord you play will be written on the piano/keyboard image in the software – if you have that enabled in the menu.
You can also record any chord you play and then right click on the block you recorded and chose “copy”. Then right click on another block and paste the chord. If you want the chord to be a precise length you can cut the block to fit the length of the chord.

Your thoughts are noted. It’s great to get feedback from our users, so we know how you’d like our software to work!
