I am an idiot. I was checking the list and EZKeys shows up at the very end of the VST plugins. I thought it would be listed right after the original EZKeys . I never thought to scroll through as the original is a VSTi
yes I cleared the cache and rescanned. No luck. is it possible that I have some bad file paths in Reaper preferences. I had a major issue in March when I replaced my PC. I actually lost my Arturia software and a tech somehow cleared the file paths and when rescanned that software came back but it still took another two weeks to figure out why EZKeys and EZDrummer 64 bit could not be found in Reaper. I may have entered bad file paths while trying to resolve that issue. That is now okay but I wonder if I need to clear the file paths to Reaper’s defaults. I have no idea how to do this or if it will mess up my other plugins.

You can reduce the amount of hits on the drum kit by using the edit page. Select the drum you want and adjust the hits up or down. Do this for each drum in the kit that you feel is to busy.
You only get the modern/vintage drum kits with your initial purchase of ezdrummer. You need to purchase other kits individually. There is a 40% sale going on right now. I just bought the latin percussion kit yesterday.
As stated above if you haven’t already done so, install the product manager from Toontracks website. If you still need the computer name and ID
Go to your start menu and click on the windows icon
A pop up menu will appear and just above the power button is the settings icon
Click on that
next click on the word “about” on the bottom of the menu that appears on the left hand side of the screen and all your information will be on the screen
There is a dropdown menu in EZdrummer 2 when you click on the help button. One of the options is to find the location of the vstplugin. Click on that and then copy the file path for the plugin.
Go into Reapers preferences and paste the file location in the search function box where Reaper finds all your plug ins and click search.
Make sure you add it to the end of the listed files in the search box so you don’t accidentally remove one of the other locations.
It will load the plugin for EZ Drummer into Reaper. Then use it by clicking on the effects button on the track that you wish to use for your drums.
I would go step by step for you in Reaper but I am not at home right now and do not have the steps committed to memory.
Let me know how you make out.
You can also google how to add a file path in Reaper to search for plugins. That is how I did it.
