Thanks.

You have two options Steve. One is to load one of the Hybrid Kits that already has it loaded as an insert into the AUX channel. Once that is there you can click on the left and right arrows within the convolution reverb to switch IRs.

OR even easier you can put the convolution reverb as an insert on any channel - probably best on an AUX channel on the right side of the output mixer. Then you double click the the insert to open its parameters. You'll see a window that you can just drag and drop any of the Ultimate Studio Space waves right onto and there you go. Then once it is there you can use the left and right arrows to scroll through the other ones in that folder. Fun to try out on different things as it can radically shape the sound.

Remember if you put it as an insert on the aux channel in the output mixer then you have to SEND something to it. You can do that from any of the individual kit piece instruments. On the right of them is a little button called "Aux". Hit that and 4 aux effect send sliders show up underneath that instrument. So turn up the slider and that is how much level is being sent to that aux channel and going through the convolution if you have it inserted.

This is an example of one of the tutorials we'll have with visuals as soon as we can. A full manual with explanation of each panel is also coming for Drum Masters 2 and applies to this bundle.

Hi everyone, first off just want to thank you guys for putting together a product that ROCKS, the kits are just amazing and I look forward to working with them in my humble little studio. I've chosen the EZ Player Pro option and got it working but the only thing is that the IMAP mappings don't seem to work when chosing Sonic Reality -> IMAP. Any plans to supply a map for EZ Player Pro?

Post

It's OK here. EZPP does have the iMap mappings (Drum Masters or iMap Extended)

Exactly which mapping are you picking? What issues do you see? Can you describe the steps to recreate the issues?

Thanks Dave. It is very easy and works like a charm. I was uncertain as to how to pull up the IRs within Kontakt, but I used "browse for containing folder" and there they were. Very, very cool.

Thanks again for your help.

not sure if there was another way but on Mac for storing the samples on a separate drive I used a symbolic link

I was having problems with ezplayer and oddgrooves using imap. I found out that I needed to update ezplayer to 1.0.5. This newer version has imaps that say "Ocean Way" and another that says "Sonic Reality - Drum Masters" (BTW I didn't uninstall first and the 1.0.5 version updated the older version)

When you're on the ezplayer download page at Toontrack, you'll see a red download button. Do Not use it. Scroll down and 'save target as' on the 1.0.5 version. Also, even though it says winxp 32-bit only, I haven't had any problems using it as a VST in Sonar 8.5 with Vista 64-bit.

Hope this works for you!

I had some problems with the Premier dry kit. I tried to install it many times with the infinite player sounds installer. But infinite player didn't load any sounds. So I unzipped the package and replaced the file IP_NDV Premr Dry from the infinite player/samples with the unzipped version. The original file in the infinite player/samples folder was only 4k and the unzipped file was 327Mb.

Now it seems to work properly.

All the other kits have been working properly.

Is there something wrong with the infinite player library installer?

Has anyone else had the same issue?

A manual--a manual--my kingdom for a manual!!

Has anyone had the OWD or the DM2 kits open in kontakt and they have duplicates of all the kits, but only one loads? Does this have something to do with one of the fixes we installed

Post

Has anyone got a chance to try out Ezplayer ? I chose a kit instead and I am thinking of buying Ezplayer but I want to make sure it really works well with OWD and DM@ kits first, any info would be much appreciated!

I chose EZPlayer and I am disappointed. It works just fine, but I do not see it as anything special. Maybe I am not using it to its fullest, but I find that it is not significantly better for me than the media bay in Cubase 5. If I had it to do all over again, I would have taken another kit instead of EZPlayer. Very personal opinion, YMMV.

It works really well with the imap and gm kits, I'm really happy with it.

Just a note on the app itself, I often find myself raising the velocity knob so that the hihat and snare hits trigger better, this seems to just be the case with the ezplayer pro library (which is really cool) groove monkey stuff doesn't seem to need it.

great app though I don't know why they wouldn't have a demo for it?
Nobody's a nobody...
