Tried that, and it only gave me the option to install the app.exe and operations manual into C:\Program Files\Toontrack. There was no option to change the where the DLL’s are installed.
Really, the question is, how do these now get this installed to C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST2 ?
Re-running the installer for EZMix (since it’s the lightest weight), I only get the option to install to the C:\Program Files\Toontrack where it’s installing the executable and operation manual. I do not get the option to change where it installs the VST2 dll (EZMix.dll)

With the 2020.01 release of Cakewalk, VSTScan will not scan folders (in Windows: C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3) that don’t have the vst3 extension. Thus if your VST dll’s are there (EZdrummer.dll, SuperiorDrummer3,dll, etc) are in that directory, CbB will no longer see them. Not sure if there’s an easier way to tell EZdrummer, SD3, EZMix, etc to move those DLL’s beyond running the install again.
Thanks will delete. I do have the EZX Seventies Rock there already. Note that this was just a new installation on a new PC this year, so somehow that just appeared with one of the installers. I have no user midi or otherwise.
Unfortunately, I did click Add to database and nothing happens (in SD3 or EZD2). The folder itself is blank. Add to database seems to do nothing. Seems somehow it was installed either empty, or incorrectly as a root folder instead of under the other seventies rock EZX as best as I can tell.
1) True mono outs and the ability to synch track creation to your daw directly to create mono outs.
2) In depth mIdi editor done the toontrack way. Time to revolution hi-hat midi-editing in a way that only Toontrack can do.
3) More effects that could be used separately as VST’s within a DAW host
4) More tweakability/configuration for e-drum support
5) Ability to configure a gate or snare damping (or similar)
6) Save mixer to lock outputs to maintain consistent routing in your daw channels as you switch from kit to kit
Ok, finally got this figured out, and wow is this confusing.
For example, if you want to route your kick drum and snare drums to separate mono mixer channels, you have to select output 1 for each kick output in the EZDrummer mixer. Then you also have to pan each kick drum to the left in the EZDrummer mixer. Then you route output 1 from back of the EZDrummer rack in reason to only the mono (L) input channel on a reason mixer.
Then for snare, you still select output 1 in EZDrummer (for both top and bottom for example), pan each in the EZDrummer to the right, and take output 2 from EZDrummer into another mono input on another instance of a reason mixer.
Next the hi-hat, change the EZDrummer output to output #2 and pan left in the EZDrummer mixer.. On the back of the EZDrummer rack, you route output “3” to a mono track. Continue down the line this way to use all channels (assuming you want those as mono or whatever is needed).
The outputs listed on the back of the EZDrummer rack output, do not correspond to the output listed directly in the VST interface. Output 1 really means both output 1 and 2 on the back of the rack, but you must pan each in the EZDrummer mixer. This works (and it’s super confusing to even write this) , but can’t help but think this feels a little broken. .
I’ve attached the following routing, building upon John’s original routing, leveraging one of the original EZDrummer 2 kits (Original Mix), to reflect the use of all channels routed as separate as you can. This will unfortunately change with different library/kits you have to use to some extent. EZDrummer Mixer is all set to unity gain so I can control levels with the SSL mixer (the big reason I use Reason!) at roughly -12db to -15db or so adjusted via the input gain on the SSL mixer.
Hmm…I’m confused by this. Technically there are 16 mono outs from the reason rack (assuming you route them to 16 mono mixer channels). I can only use the first 8 of the channels within the EZDrummer when assigning outputs from the EZDrummer Mixer. Assigning anything higher does not seem to work in Reason 9.5 (regardless of stereo/mono). If I want to use each channel as mono, they must be within the first eight channels. Do I have this right?
