The EZdrummer 1 to EZdrummer 2 upgrade has been discontinued since December 31, 2015. You would need to purchase a full EZD2 license. Upgrades were made available from April 2014 until December 31, 2015 when the upgrade was discontinued.  

You might be able to find a retailer with a valid EZdrummer 1 to EZdrummer 2 upgrade still in stock.
I’ve heard that they still exist though I have no specifics.

I am on a MacBook Pro core 17, with Logix pro X.
I cannot find any folder or program in my applications folder , document folder, music folder, and so on…
Even through Logic pro, I can find demo version of EZdrummer for instance (and before ESKEY’s demo), but not EZKEY’S full version.  

A common issue that Logic users have is finding 3rd-party plugins & virtual instruments.
In Logic Pro X, you WILL NOT find EZKeys in the Logic virtual instrument “Library”.
EZKeys, EZDrummer2, and SuperiorDrummer2 can be found under the “AU Instruments” menu (see attached screenshot)
on a Software Instrument track’s Inspector.

On a Mac, standalone versions of Toontrack products install to the [Applications] folder, grouped under a [Toontrack] folder.

after successful installation of EZKEYS , where do I start the program ? I can’t find it ?
I looked around for hours but find nothing ?
The EZKEY’S Demo was very easy to install and start but the normal version is impossible to find in my hard disk.
Please, help !  

can you please provide a few details about your particular set-up?
are you running Windows or Mac?
Are you having trouble locating the EZKeys standalone or the EZKeys plugin?
If it is the plugin that you cannot locate, in what DAW/host are you looking for it?

[Scott Eshleman]

Those library settings are applicable only to customers who own and use SuperiorDrummer version 1.0
and who have upgraded to a SuperiorDrummer 2.0 implementation.

[Scott Eshleman]

You can record the MIDI you’ve tweaked in your Pro Tools session back into the EZDrummer timeline
if you have EZDrummer instantiated on that Instrument track.

How can I create Augmented chords and flat 5 chords in EzKeys?
I can’t seem to find a sharp 5 or flat 5 in the chord wheel (even under detail chord finder)

Anyone?  

a search of the forum turned up this very short thread on the subject:
http://www.toontrack.com/forum/ezkeys-help/how-to-add-5-or-9-to-a-chord/

also, please see pg 14-15 of the EZKeys Operation Manual

Does the strings and things new expansion pack feature different midi than the dream pop ezkeys midi???  

Unlike EZDrummer2 expansions, EZKeys expansions do not include MIDI grooves in that particular style.
As stated on the product description page, http://www.toontrack.com/product/ezkeys-string-machine/ :

•Each EZKeys comes with an individual sound library
•Each EZKeys contains the same software including all functionality as well as the extensive standard MIDI library

The extensive standard MIDI library is a non-stylized collection of basic chords, chord inversions, music theory demonstrations, and example progressions, etc.

What instrumental is instantiated on the track in Reaper to play the EZD2 MIDI dragged there?

I don’t have any experience with Cubase or configuring VST plugins therein,
but shouldn’t y’all be adding a VST path within Cubase that points Cubase to the installation path of EZDrummer2
rather than moving dll’s from their installed location?  

Also, wouldn’t moving the EZDrummer dll from its installed location be detrimental to other applications’ ability to use EZDrummer?
I know many users & studios that use multiple DAWs (Pro Tools, Cubase, Logic, etc).

As I recall, Toontrack started selling EZDrummer2.0 in May of 2014,
with weeks preceding the roll-out with a dozen or so emails, videos and reviews introducing the product.
EZDrummer 1 was discontinued immediately and the upgrade pricing was offered
and continued until January of 2016, a year-and-a-half later.

I’m new to EZDrummer so I’m still in the early learning stage. I was thinking that EZDrummer 2 would allow setup of individual output for each drum component or sound. Is that not a function of the individual midi tracks in midi file type 1?  

Multiple outputs from the EZDrummer2 mixer are described on pg 38 of the Operation manual
and any number of Toontrack videos on their YouTube channel:
