the only ones that can help you with this is Toontrack Support, so if they ask you to provide more information to securely connect your account with your products, that’s the only way, I’m afraid.
The order #, your personal details like adress and email and a copy of the receipt with serial number(s) usually suffice.
maybe I misunderstand but I don’t think it’s supposed to follow that workflow but you can always post a request in the ‘Requests&Feedback’ section.
If I have my recorded audio in e.g. Logic and transfer this from my recorded bass track via the Toontrack Audio Sender to the EZbass Tracker, it lines up with the Logic timeline as expected.
If I drag individual files into the Tracker and they do not have silence at the beginning (in your case 4Bars), they start from Bar 1 in the Tracker.
In the example of Synthwave EKX, you would perhaps be interested in moving the ‘Filter’ knob with the Mod wheel?
If so, right-click the ‘Filter’ knob and go to ‘Bind to CC > CC1’. Now the Mod wheel controls the ‘Filter’ knob and can also be automated in the Curve Edit Lane (the Velocity lane is visible by Default). If you Bind other controls as well, I suggest you save as User Preset, also found by right-clicking a knob.
I would first create 1 Stereo Instrument Track for the plug-in itself and the first Stereo output (1+2) of the plug-in. Next I would create as many Aux Tracks as you need separate outputs; as this would vary with library kit, there’s no right or wrong.
The advantage with using Pro Tools is that even though the plug-in has got 16 Stereo outputs, you can split them if you wish to have some instrument microphones as Mono in the PT Mixer but I digress, that’s not the first thing to worry about.
Next step would be checking that you get MIDI in to the plug-in in Pro Tools and depending on PT version, you may have to record-arm the Instrument Track to hear and see MIDI reaching the plug-in. When that works, you click the small “hamburger” menu in the lower right corner of the SD3 plug-in to open the MIDI In/E-drums Settings.
Click the ‘Use Preset’ button to enable presets and scroll to find your kit’s module preset. When selected, your kit (at least most of it) should map correctly.
I attach a Pro Tools Session template I made a few years ago, it should give you an idea of the above setup.
when the Tracker has analysed the audio and you have tweaked the result to your liking, expand the Song Track and before you click ‘Add MIDI to Song Track’ you place the playhead at the position you wish the MIDI to be inserted.
hopefully I can explain what happens.
If I create subfolders in my User MIDI folder and then create a Groove on the Song Track, then drag it to one said subfolders, it gets the name ‘Track1’ and I rename it to something appropriate. It also gets renamed in the Finder along with the accompanying ‘.midtrackinfo’ file.
If I drag this file in SD3 grooves to another subfolder in User MIDI, it gets copied to the other subfolder and the name it gets, is its original name when created.
I.e. if I record the MIDI to the Song Track 1, that’s its original name. If I start with an empty block, that will be its name. If I start with ‘Verse01’ from a pack, etc.
If you wish to just move around grooves, please use the Finder/Explorer, it’s just a right-click away to open the location of the file. When you have re-organised, remember to ‘Sync File Changes’ of the User MIDI folder in SD3 by right-clicking the User MIDI folder.
Once EZmix3 has analysed your track and you try out and tweak the different presets, you should be in the ballpark for the preset’s genre references. That said, it’s always good practice with reference checking if you need to tweak something.

Hi,
I would say both yes and no😉

if you are in the Grid Editor and have selected all notes in a block, you can Alt/Option+Up/Down Arrow key to Transpose them in semitone steps, add the Shift key to Transpose in octaves.
