I’ll make it as simple as possible.
I made a default “program” with all stock Roland TD-17 mappings and a basic 5 piece drum kit.
If I switch to another drum set, such as the classic rock Bonham kit, both my rack toms will now trigger the lone rack tom on Bonham’s kit. Why? Why would my rack toms suddenly switch to the same sample/midi note?
To make it work properly, I need to make another “program” for the Bonham kit, let EZ drummer “learn” the triggers, then save this “program” with the Bonham kit included in the program. But I switch to another drum kit within this program, all the mapping is screwed up again!
I cannot create an entire program for each drum kit. At least, I shouldn’t have to.

I’ll return the simplicity favour. Your ekit has two toms; Bonham kit has one. EZD makes up for a missing drum or other instrument, by playing the nearest of the same kind. Both ekit toms play the lone Bonham tom.
Which expansion pack or EZD room are you working in?
A project is a drum kit, it’s settings, presets and any grooves put into it. Save it as a project.

Thanked by: ROBERTSo if you have 5 projects and 5 kits, you want to save as default?
How does this work for 5 kits though? I switch kits per song sometimes.
Ive saved this way, but only load from where i mentioned because thats the user presets area..
But yea, ive saved projects like you mention, its a default project, not really kit, right? Is this what i am reading?
So on the right top area, the kit name like gospel or studio basic is there, and then next to it is the name of the preset on that kit in this project. I use that
drop down menu to save the preset of the kit i have made.
Then you say, i should set as default (like maybe the 1 kit thats on the most songs?) yea?
Then what, when we need to switch, i use that preset window on the right to load them.
Then they seem to forget some, of what ive done, but not all, thats the strange part, then there is one tom
so far, no matter what, its been like 60 times now, it just resets and gets loud if i save or not, seems like a few of these triggers do that.

Default projects have a kit in them, whichever is saved with it. Saving a user preset won’t save your ekit. That’s not what presets are for. Save your projects and their kits in the File menu. Load each one from the File menu.

Thanked by: ROBERTTop center i see mixer and grid editor, not sure what you mean here, but under settings on the very left… is the edrum did menu.
I do save from user presets area, like the name of the drum kit there is a drop down window there. (studio basic kit) Top right.
Click this and then save user preset is in there, almost never actually records the save.
So i save a project and other stuff, still doesnt seem to save my volumes per kit or per tom once the program (FL studio) reboots.
Seems like most of the time, most of my work is lost to where i just give up.
There seems to be no real help on this site or anywhere, its just software thats like a bucket with a small hole in it. Slowly its not really a bucket, it just looks like one.
Have you tried File > Save Current as Default Project?

Thanked by: ROBERTIf you’re talking about the website showing it as unauthorised, you don’t need to do anything. Mine has always shown the same. Does EZD work?
The new State of the Art SDX has a Zildjian crash with a chain. It sizzles.
