Geesh, I still can’t get it to work. Ideally, I’d like to drag a EZ2 block into protools, edit it and put it back into EZ drummer as a block, then save it to user MIDI. If I hold CTRL-ALT and start to drag the protools MIDI file, it does not go into EZ2, it just moves inside protools. I suspect I’m missing something simple. Here’s detail:

1) Dragging an EZ2 block into protools WORKS!
2) Editing MIDI in protools works
3a) Putting edited MIDI back into EZ2 works if I hit RECORD in EZ2 and play the MIDI file, but there is dead space at both ends.
3b) I cannot drag protools MIDI blocks back into EZ2 no matter what I try (any advice, because this would be great!).
4) After recording the edited MIDI back into EZ2, I get dead space at both ends. I can edit out the dead space, but if I drag the edited block into EZ2 User MIDI, the dead space is there. If I right-click on a block and “save to user MIDI” the dead space is also there, but the blocks are different. What’s REALLY WEIRD, in some cases, if I preview the block in the USER MIDI, it will play correctly, with no dead spaces, but the dead space is there when I drag it back into the timeline.

My EZ Drummer 2 install is up to date. Thanks in advance!

That almost worked for me Scott E. There are dead measures at the beginning and end of the recording. I trimmed them in the EZD2 timeline with the mouse AND the scissors (neither worked) and saved the block as user MIDI but the dead measures are not trimmed when I re-input the pattern back in. To record, I highlighted the 8 measure MIDI block in protools so it would not start early or end late, but it still recorded the extra measures.
