In a DAW, your DAW is responsible for making the connection between midi controllers and EZD. Make sure your DAW can see your keyboard/controller. Also, sometime you must route the controller to the right channel and record enable it.

In EZD standalone app, you go to Settings >Audio/Midi Setup and select your controller.

Not sure if you’re referring to a Mid Out workflow by your wording. But for EZK/EZB to control something else is no prob. Here’s a vid for that.

Still hoping.

I choose it and then apply swing. There’s no indicator that I can see. I’m not even sure that futurhit instrument show up in that search since there’s a separate “Add Futurhit Instrument” option in the menu.

EZD3 can swing a futurhit instrument, so i assume when SD4 comes out this will be resolved, fyi.

Remember, you could always import and audio sample/one-shot for a quick solution. Add Instrument > Import Audio File.

It seems SD3 should have it by default, see attached.

Not sure if this is a complete list because I only looked visually:
Area 33 Origin
Fields Of Rock
Idiepandant

The Rock Warehouse

It’s a limitation to the Futurehit Instruments.

I’m not sure what SD products you own. But if you Search For Instrument and see some percussion there that’s not a Futurehit instrument, you can get those controls to work.

You might be right. If you are, you would load up that EZDrummer2 Library, which is an EZX in EZD3, and use that assigned articulation for that specific EZX.

Hopefully a mod will swing in and correct us after the weekend though.

There are very few EZXs that have two snare slots which is the only way to natively do it.

Using two instances of EZDrummer in a DAW would be a workaround to play with.

Superior Drummer does this natively.

There is no key.

Midi controllers might have a feature that repeats a snare hit. Nothing to do with EZ.

Older EZXs might have an articulation that hits more than once.

There is a snare roll filter on the Grooves Tab.

You build it manually in the Grid Editor or Edit Play Style.

BEST ANSWER

Did you try this a second time just to see if the behavior is consistent? Do a quick test if not. Maybe you hit something really bad on accident.

If by New file you mean in the Upper left File Menu, that is not where you select a New File. That would mean an entirely new project. You want to hit the New Session button in the upper right of your first picture.

Yes, run two instances in a DAW.

No prob.

Follow Host must be enabled to play along in FL. EZD is the guest, it only takes commands from the host.

It’s a particular and unique thing you’re going for, I could only guess at what you should do if FL is not in charge of the Tempo or a Tempo Map.

EZD Humanizes by default, unless you purposefully gridlock it’s performance or importing gridlocked midi files. That seems to work for the high majority. I personally only tempo map in a DAW, if I feel the need and have the time, and then perform to that metronome from the Tempo Map and the midi instruments simply follow it as well. That’s just me though.

“if someone asks for the time, they don’t expect to be told how to build a clock.”

Do I quote you if I ever use this, Jord? Is this a lyric?
