Hi,

if you are using EZkeys standalone, please visit the Settings for Audio/MIDI and make sure your controller’s interface is checked as active MIDI input.
If you are using it as a plug-in, please consult your DAW’s manual or specify here which one you use.

Hi,

there are two types of grooves that can appear in the Bandmate groove browser.
– Toontrack EZkeys MIDI from your Grooves library that matches the rhythm (transients) in the imported source file. Bandmate may automatically modify the grooves to better match the rhythm in certain cases even before you start using the amount knobs.
– User MIDI from your user libraries.

The groove controls will manipulate the groove that EZkeys 2 matched your idea to.
Note Amount: The Note Amount knob will tell the Bandmate algorithm to use more or less notes based on the accents, transients, and notes that Bandmate finds in your source material.
Octave: Transpose the generated groove up or down in octaves.
Edit: The Edit knobs and settings controls the timing and velocity of the groove.

Hi,

I just want to remind you and everybody reading this that the best way to avoid issues is to use the Toontrack Product Manager application, not download installers from the web interface.

Hi,

you have got the Drums & Keys tab plus the Audio Tracker Tab in EZbass and you can Import Chords and Parts from EZkeys 2 Projects, which all in all gives you about the same as Bandmate. You can drag MIDI from EZkeys 2 to the EZbass Drums & Keys tab, as well as EZdrummer 3 drum MIDI (exactly how depends on host but *should* work if windows are overlapping). The EZbass Standalone lets you specify MIDI In channel but not the EZbass plug-in.

Hi Janderman, you mean like in the EZ line products? That should already be on the wish list requested by users. But what do you mean with ‘And Edit Drums also’? The DRUMS page (Main interface page)  is where you edit the Drums.

Thanks for sharing and your patience, a weird hardware issue but when you mention it, I think I have actually heard of it elsewhere.

Hi,

not being able to load your Project due to all you User samples missing (hundreds, I think?) makes it harder to help in troubleshooting but I still would say you have a routing problem.
If samples were missing in some way, you would get an error message and be prompted to locate them, just like we do in this thread when we try to load your Project.
You are using SD3 in a rather unique way with so many X-Instruments, user Instruments/samples and Stacks from different libraries, rooms and available microphones plus your own samples so it would be easy to get lost.
Please bear in mind that if you have saved a User Instrument with one Library loaded as base with a set of X-drums and X-mics, doesn’t mean that loading the same User Instrument in another set up library, X-drums+mics, etc. will yield the same results. It can indeed be (partly) silent, if the current setup differs from the previous one.
Loading a User Instrument doesn’t create new Mixer Channels.
Also, if we take e.g. Instrument 17 in your Project, the ‘Main’ sample articulation which you have set to be triggered between 0 and 1 in Velocity is routed to ‘Racktom 3’ but all the 74 Stack Members are routed to ‘None’. Just Routing the Main will not route the other Stack Members, since Stack Members can have totally different routings. That said, when your Main is routed to ‘Racktom 3’, ‘Auto-assign’ is your friend for the other members.

Hi,

SD3 is clearly trying to load the EZdrummer 3 Core Library so you must have the library still on your computer. Please start with opening the Product Manager app and see if you can Uninstall it from there. If it lists as Installed but with no option to Uninstall, you may have to download the Installer again, since the Uninstaller is part of the Installer package.

If this doesn’t work, please open the finder and go to {Mac HD}/Library/Application Support/EZdrummer/ and see if you have any of these folders there:
EZX3_EZdrummer3_BrightRoom
EZX3_EZdrummer3_MainRoom
EZX3_EZdrummer3_TightRoom

If so, Delete them and restart SD3 to see if this remedies the problem.

BR,
John
