Thanks for the clarification (that EZD 2 install completely replaces EZD on the HD), all!
Here we go…

I would like to know this as well please.blueman wrote:If you import your own midi (e.g. Groove Monkee) will the tempo and velocity knobs work intelligently? Iow, does it change how the drummer plays and alter parts like it does with the EZX midi?
Can Groove Monkee parts be tagged, or whatever, to be integrated into the new way?
thanks, j

i took me some time to find that, too. in drums view click the arrow of a single drum, it opens a litte window. down on the right side is an option to choose an entire kit!firepile wrote:How does one load custom kit presets created in v1?

Yes, if you drag our midi into the song track, you can switch the "pwer hand" and use the velocity and "amount' knobs.blueman wrote:If you import your own midi (e.g. Groove Monkee) will the tempo and velocity knobs work intelligently? Iow, does it change how the drummer plays and alter parts like it does with the EZX midi?
Tip: The power hand can be dragged with your mouse to another instrument (e.g. hit-hat to ride or crash). You can also switch the articulation using the instrument's drop down box (e.g. ride bow to ride bell).

All of our packs are now played by pro drummers...most that we're not have been replaced. For example, all rock packs including metal were played by pros.noiseboyuk wrote:blueman wrote:...cos they're a) played by real drummers and b) make use of the subtle variations in, say, hi hat playing that you can't get in GM.
As for hats, off the top of my head I know we now use at least 7 articulations (including tight tip, tight shank, tip, shank, several degrees of opened hats).

Is it just me? Shit sounds more realistic than others. I keep throwing ezdrummer with searched grooves just randomly and it instantly sounds better. I'm worried it's just another "hibidy is impressed with his new toy" syndrome.

Well...there she goes! I just dropped the funds to get the upgrade and 2 new EZX libraries (Folk Indie and Blues)

More time to play.
Not sure if....
-why you can't drag/drop midi from inside a host into ezdrummer2 This can't be right
-toms don't have individual outputs so your stuck with the lot. Can't have everything
-increments don't work in S1 (75.4 tempo won't match up. Seems to work in live though. Must play more.
-haven't figured out how to drag drop a made song (the manual just says that you can)
-as previously mentioned by someone, if you change the preset, you'll change the whole kit. I think this can be improved on to keep a snare/kick/etc
Nice stuff I just discovered
-adding the percussion is a snap and it sounds good to my ears
-changing the lead (like in the example of hat to ride) is nice. Great way to vary the beats
-great for a dingdong like me who struggles with real drum "beats"
And I'll mention again, I personally love the way it sounds. YMMV
