Effects button directly under the two Library/Preset drop down menus. in the Upper right on the main Keys Tab. Is that it?

Exactly what John said.

If you open a fresh project in Reaper and load EZD3 in this fresh project. Drag a few midi files into the EZD Song Track, does it still not work?

That’s because lowering the snare faders only lowers the close mic channels. You need to twist the bleed knob down in Mixer, to lower the snare in the OH mic channel. To learn more about bleed, watch https://www.toontrack.com/news/how-to-make-ezdrummer-3-bleed/

Lower the snare volume on the Drums Tab. Bleed knobs do not always exist. If you’re interested… Microphone duties as they relate to EZD3. Mixing from the Drums Tab.

I don’t know the TD50 well. I feel like users are able to use a Roland Audio driver and send EZD back to the unit, then you can use the module’s output.

Your headphone jack can work fine. It’s just not optimized for the situation.

My preference is always Drum Module to computer via USB/Midi cable.  Audio Interface to computer via USB. Audio Interface to Mixing Board or Powered Speakers via balanced cables (whether 1/4″ TRS or XLR). If I’m playing a venue I have a stereo DI box on me incase their engineer doesn’t know what to do with my Audio Interface.

My take on the audio interface.

About speakers. A nicer speaker will probably always sound better is the easy answer. A picky answer for when you’re ready. All pro live engineers “tune” (EQ) speakers to a certain room if they have time. This is an EQ only for the speakers, not for the instruments or EZDrummer. Or the process is called Ringing Out The Room. If your setup is always in the same room or you’re going to play an important gig with your own sound system, maybe check out the process.

BEST ANSWER

*Do update EZdrummer.

” it will not follow the host inside the ez drummer or ez bass program. A pop up says “Can not follow host other MIDI detected”.So it is trying to run two MIDI files simultaneously .”

This has never happened to me. Might want to take it up with a Reaper group, if it’s really what you want to do. But also, if you drag the midi out of EZdrummer (for example), you don’t want to Follow Host anymore. You don’t want two things happening at once in anyway.

“The reason to have the track in reaper and also in the ez bass/drum program is to be able to add and effects on the tracks in my DAW as needed.”

You don’t need to export midi or audio to add your own effects in reaper. Just place an effect in the next Insert slot in Reaper after EZdrummer.

If you want an audio track(s) of your EZdrummer work, and the other TT programs, open them up and look to the Track Menu > Export Audio. It’s not inferior from a sample/bit rate point of view.

My take on the subject here. You can also learn to route your Toontrack products as well for more control.

Just some thoughts.

Imagine the high fidelity/details you hear with a speaker inside or over your ear. Also acknowledge there’s no room sound in headphones. Headphones eliminate the sound of the room your speakers are in.

I’d say having access to an EQ will help you get the headphone tone you like if you have decent speakers. Two powered JBLs work just fine for me edrumming on my own in a small room. If these speakers are close to me, I hear less of the room I’m playing in and it will sound tighter.

A quality powerful speaker(s) would be needed in a bigger venue. You have to compete with the ambience of the room for a “tight” sound.

If you’re playing venues, I would just bring an audio interface with TRS or XLR outputs and feed the sound engineer the left and right lines (however many you can provide). Let them deal with it.

All headphones sound different and so do all speakers. Depending on your standards you need a basic or an elaborate EQ to compensate and a quality enough speaker to output what you want.

Last thought.  Two powered 15″ JBL Eons in a church with 70 foot ceiling sound awful during sound check when I’m 80 feet away from them mixing. Come show time with 100 people standing in front of them, they sound great. It’s all about dealing with the room and situation.

A guess. If these two programs are using the same audio driver, maybe their sample rates are different. If you’re jamming along with GP and have an audio interface, let’s EZMix have the interface and choose a different driver for GP.

His pedal wrote CC data i assume. On the Grid Editor Tab, lower left area you’ll see Velocity… expand that, and look for the CC value their hihat was on. In this case you may want to just eliminate the data instead of edit it.

I can hold left-click and drag a selection box around whatever notes I wish. That doesn’t work for you?

Select all of the notes, then check out the Select menu in the upper right to make particular selections. Or Shift+Select individual notes.

Shameless plug, but it’s on topic. Full Grid Editor Course here if you’re interested.

Mick have you done this before? I believe this is only for income midi signals.
