    You can activate MIDI out in EZdrummer 2 and route that into Superior Drummer 2. In that way, you don’t need to drag the MIDI to your DAW before previewing how it will sound in Superior Drummer 2.

    Porkplan – what did you mean with “change the volume of a track, all of them moves”? I don’t know if the youtube tutorial helped you with the problem you have?

    Try to download the Mac installer again, there may have been a file error when you downloaded it.

    Basically – MIDI is to a computer what sheet music is for a musician. EZkeys expansions (EZKs) are to a computer what instruments are for a musician. You can write sheet music to a musician and ask him to play those notes on a piano, an organ or something else. In the same manner – you can edit MIDI and tell EZkeys to play that MIDI with a piano, a mellotron etc. Smile

    EZdrummer 2 doesn’t have a built in function to allow you to use your regular keyboard as a MIDI input. Many DAW’s has this feature built in (Logic, Cubase etc). So if you want to run the stand alone and need to control MIDI, use your nano-key! I use that one myself and I find it very useful and easy to carry with me when I travel and want to create beats on the fly :)

    Alright, nice to hear that you sorted it out. 2048 is a pretty big buffer size which will add MIDI latency. Sounds like a new sound card should be the next investment (or an update to ASIO driver, if you don’t use that already) :)

    EZdrummer doesn’t have the controls needed to change incoming MIDI in this way, Superior Drummer 2 does however.

    Logic 9 can change incoming MIDI in real time with its Transformer, that’s found in Environment. Here’s a tutorial on how to use it:
    http://music.tutsplus.com/tutorials/how-to-use-the-transformer-object-in-logics-environment–audio-4080

    What you need to do is to make the incoming midi’s velocities higher. There are lots of tutorials covering how it operates :)

    Ok, thanks for the update. I’m going to check that, to see if there’s a bug somewhere…

    – EZdrummer 2 can only make copies of MIDI blocks, aliases can’t be created. It is this way because we really wanted to keep the complexity level down. Other software has this feature, which can lead to confusion (“I changed this block, why did that block change?”).
    – The blocks can’t be renamed, since we saw that the combination of song part (verse, chorus etc) with the power hand is enough to identify the song part.
    – The MIDI can only be edited via the smart functions in Edit Play Style, or by recording extra hits to a block. This follows the same design guideline as above, and this can be accomplished in the DAW.

    The fact that these features aren’t implemented from the start doesn’t mean that they won’t ever be. We listen to our customers, and if features are wanted by many of you we always take that into consideration for future updates.

    The Humanize function does nothing to the MIDI and the timing of the notes, it changes what sounds the engine should play when a MIDI note is played.
    Is it latency that causes the bad timing, e.g. the MIDI is played a bit after when it should be played?
    Does this problem only occur in the Song Creator (e.g. are you playing the MIDI straight from the Song Creator’s previews of the different MIDI files) or are you playing the MIDI from the song track?

    What happens if you try to create a new project and add drums – is the problem still there?

    Erix, to get a separate EZdrummer 2 project file, you should go to EZdrummer 2’s menu (in the top right corner if its interface) and select “Project/Save Project…”

    Can you give an example of what kind of beat you are tapping in? For me, EZdrummer 2 finds plenty of 100% matches as long as I keep the tapped beats as simple as the one I attached…
