Hey Henrik,

I can totally understand that – from a business perspective – SD3 has to have more features than EZD2. However, from a customer point of view it would absolutely make sense to have a Grid Editor in EZdrummer, because it makes programming drums so much more convenient, „EZ“ so to speak. And I always thought that convenience really is what EZD is about in comparison to all the tweaking possibilities in SD. And it would offer a great opportunity to combine Toontrack‘s MIDI grooves with the customer‘s own patterns. Right now the Grid Editor is the only feature of SD3 that I’d really want to have in comparison to EZD2, and I’m not quite sure if that single feature can justify the 269 EUR crossgrade price for me (and I would even have to buy an additional external harddrive for the huge core library, which adds to the 269 EUR crossgrade fee). Although I have to admit it’s tempting… Well, perhaps there is some hope for a Grid Editor in a future EZdrummer 3 ?! 😉

But honestly, I‘m not here to complain. I remember how I ordered the very first DFH samples when they were still distributed as wav files on a standard „home-burnt“ CD-R and I had to drag every single hit manually into Logic‘s arrange window. So relating to the above mentioned convenience EZdrummer 2 is already a huge step forwards. But a Grid Editor would make drum programming even „EZier“ – without having to deal with the wealth of professional tweaking possibilities (or requirements?) of Superior, which – to me as an amateur user – seems rather intimidating than motivating.

Cheers 🙂
Sven
