EZdrummer loads the midi database instantly, Superior Drummer 3: each and every item has a red mark, as explained above, loading them takes an awful lot of time via ‘add to database’ for EVERY individual set ..

RAID has to do with your OS and controllers itself …. so it should work.

You’ll find them in the downloaded part 1,  …\SL-SuperiorDrummer3_SDX_Part1\Contents\SL-SuperiorDrummer3\Sounds folder …. jost copy and overwrite from there … J

++++++++++++++

asked about this too …… waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting …  why i work with ED2 quite often.

I bought indiependent, and NY3, they’re different and OK. what i miss is some percussion, the only ones are my old EZX buys.

[Jack 007]

Did you get a registration activation code number yet? You might be able to activate & download it then …. just bought NY3, i like that, IMO better maybe, was goin at a price i couldn’t resist ….

A Q for Henrik: I bought SD3 a wile back, upgrade form SD2, and it came as one big 5 part download bunch. My activation only show it as one item, but the activation above has parts i never saw, like bleeds etc ….. Am i missing parts? J

[Jack 007]

yep …

Well, guess i figured it out. Only thing i don’t get is when to use .default or .header in the naming folders,  … @_….; seems to work both.

And NEVER use the ‘restore database’ function, after changes made. The ‘Add to Database’ function should be an automatic affair. Very time consuming. All cost me about a day, but the mess came to be due the various Toontrack installers & updates themselves IMO. This system should be totally over hauled.

Is this database SD3 creates the one stored in C:\users\’name’\appdata\toontrack\roaming\superior3?

Tested loading an old setup there, indeed. This is a ABSOLUTE and REALLY WRONG location. Occasionally when working on a job and windows messes up once again, i usually reload an older Boot image … all SD3’s stored midi library data are probably lost then. I run all my audio and video programs and plugins from a separate SSD drive to keep the boot drive as small as possible. Steinberg, Toontrack and Waves are not my favorite software manufacturers in regards of an easy going workflow. They force you back up Boot partitions too often. -J

So i should use the ‘Ad to Database’ function to save the yellow marked entries in ‘Database’ ? No way to do that all in one run then? Now you seem to have to do that separately for each item selected. Thnx BTW for your help, J

And why do i have to use ‘Add to Database ‘manually for each item separately here, also after using the ‘Restore Midi Database’ function?

[Jack 007]

Usually with the Toontrack installers, but sometimes manually, but only after something seemed to be (re-) appearing at the wrong location. Or when there were headers without content, or content that was placed ‘automatically’ elsewhere. F.i. I would like to put all Reggae or Jazz related stuff from different sources under the same (customized)  headers, and not filed under EZD, and/or again at EZX, or Superior Drummer. The logic in this file system beats me.

There was a separate folder called Database inside my EZ drummer Sounds folder seemingly doing nothing; disabling it didn’t do anything … see pic. Might have been a remainder of an old (EZD1?) installation? 2014, but there is a N.Y. SDX vol3 in it i just bought yesterday. Maybe it came back from working as tech in another studio in the past, alas the database in my head sucks at times too. I like NY3 BTW.

for a drummap?

[Jack 007]

I bought some extra SDXs and EDxs, but think this should at least be in your defaults, percussion i bought separately: (see pic)
