By the way, this is what Musicians’ Friend support just emailed me, in response to my query:

Thank you for your recent inquiry.

These are the system requirements concerning Macs for the Toontrack EZ Drummer: Mac- OS X 10.3.9 or *higher*, G4 1 GHz with 512MB RAM

The Toontrack EZ Drummer and Free EZX Expansion could be supported on your Mac pro 4 because it has the option to run as a 32-bit although the Superior drummer will run on a 64-bit with no problem. The superior drummer and EZ Drummer beta lite will be able to be used with a 64-bit operating system.

So they don’t have it exactly right, but at least they didn’t discourage me from buying the sale item (EZD).

I’m running Snow Leopard (10.6.3) but my Adobe software (Photoshop, Illustrator, After Effects) is not 64 bits. I think Adobe is finally releasing 64 bit versions just recently… I don’t have any of them yet.

So to be clear, I can install EZDrummer, I don’t need to do anything special…? I poked around a bit on the forum and saw some posts about bridging (?) somehow which I guess is no longer applicable. Cool!

BTW, I really liked the sounds of the New York Studios expansion – those really sounded fantastic. My friend recommended DFH, which seems a little more modern-sounding than what I like, but once everything else is added, it will probably work well. It will be a start, anyway.

Thanks for your help!
