with EZdrummer it is as user juicy explains it but if this is important for you, you might want to look into crossgrading to Superior 2, which has a feature called ‘X-drums’.
This lets you combine drums and their microphones from different libraries.
…and you can use all your existing EZX libraries as well as the SD2 SDX ones.
SD2.3, NYII, C&V, MC, MF, ED, Latin Perc, Twisted, Pop, N1H, Electronic, Classic, Funkmasters, Rock Solid, Blues, Indie-Folk.
NathanAm I understanding you correctly Chris?
If you drag a groove “chunk” from EZD grooves to your host (Logic Pro), specifically a (say) 4-beat one into a 2-beat bar, the resultant midi in your timeline will be entirely down to Logic Pro’s interpretation of this data being dropped onto that space.
Apologies if I’ve got it around my neck, I would have thought Logic would ignore the extra or paste the surplus notes in the nexr bar, but I don’t have access to a Mac with EZD and Logic so I can’t check…

NathanThat’s done in your host, surely? EZD provides the sounds and some MIDI grooves to start with, to use in your host, but the song structure is constructed and sequenced in the host’s MIDI editor.
Are you looking for 2-beat grooves in EZD’s groove library? What EZXs or MIDI packs have you got? Just the EZD base set?

NathanThere was a post about the logic of the names, how the tag broke down into MIDI set, song, groove, etc.
Maybe somebody could write a short algorithm in some simple computer language to take a groove name and interpret where it could be re-found.
Shouldn’t be a big job if the naming logic is consistent. I’m sure people would chip in with library naming info to help as it progressed. What is best to write it in so it can be used on Mac and PC? Java?

Other times you can use them as great writing partner -try getting the drummer to play a perfect simple beat for 30 minutes or more whilst you come up with an idea and be happy at 2 a.m.
It ain’t gonna happen plus a simple groove is way better then a click track.
I’ll second this…

NathanIs there any TT product. you don’t own, Iz?
Could you resist buying any further library packs without a spell in rehab?

NathanI was told he was French!
In which case, leave him alone! I narrowly escaped marrying a Belgian once, I’ll steer clear
Thanks Scott

NathanDon’t think there is an “American” site version. They’re a Swedish company and they deal in Euros.
Just google “exchange rate”…

NathanLingyai,
I don’t think Rogue means to be rude, it’s just a language/culture difference thing.
In Europe, sales and support don’t do the deference thing in the same way as in the US (making an assumption here about your location). Also Mr Marechal is French, and your first reply was a little bristly
FWIW, I agree with you about not releasing the product with the manual, but I’m pragmatic enough to know that things have changed with software…
Let’s take a deep breath and start again eh, chaps?

NathanDo please let us know how you get on please, Protocol. I’m looking for something more advanced than a D4 or SDS9 brain.
How does the MIDI over USB thing work, is it generic, or do you need specific Roland drivers for the TD11?

NathanThe downside is I’ve spent a lot of time exploring and tweaking with SD -there’s lots of clever capability with the plugin and I feel I’ve ony scratched the surface (and with recent offers here in the UK and Audiodeluxe in the US, I’ve bought a bunch of libraries that will take me all winter to explore).

NathanOk, I’m in the early stages of trying out my workstation software on a 64-bit OS. I would like to migrate early in the new year when work is quiet.
The MAIN REASON I’m doing this is to get more RAM available for SD2.
DT is part of my workflow for some of the jobs I do with drum replacement using SD2; I’m quire alarmed that there seems to be no progress with DT and 64-bit OS’, I’d prefer not to have to abandon it in favour of something non-TT, but you’re not giving me much confidence.
If this product is no longer to be developed, could someone do the decent thing and let me know, so I can find a replacement in good time?
What would others recommend as a useable replacement to DT please? The only one I know is Drumagog -I see Pat Thrall is using it with SD

NathanI like the clangy bits of metal and different sounding percussion, although I’d like more industrial noises.
Don’t forget you can pitch-shift these, and “twist” the dynamic envelopes of the sounds too, and layer them or morph them… (if you have SD, sorry)
I use LP, Pop, N1H and Electronic for the percusion and noises i can find. I’d like more ethnic percussion, Indian, African, I’d like orchestral percussion too. I’ll see if I can get a client’s permission to post an excerpt, or I’ll make some stuff up to post…

NathanNo, it is a plugin, and as such requires a host program.
TT Solo is a simple host designed for low latency operation to be used for electronic drum kit playing (a host, but not a DAW).
