EZ Drummer played via edrum?

[dancing Ray]

I plan on buying EZ drummer for use with my edrumkit.

Anybody out there having good experience?

Anybody out there having bad experience?

Recommendations for a better alternative?

Thanks

it's good, although you cant pitch the drums. but there's a crafty workaround by sending each drum to a seperate Live track and putting Frequency Shifter devices on each to retune them.

[dancing Ray]

cool, thanks!

you know if superior drummer would do the trick without workaround?

[dancing Ray]

Silly me, sure it does. Just read around a bit.


What really bugs me, that I can´t midi-learn any parameter of EZ-Drummer in Live. Or am I doing a serious mistake here (again)?

Yes, SD has pitch shifting for each drum

[dancing Ray]

Yes, thanks, I found out already.

Do you know about the midi-learn capability of SD?

if you want to midi-learn the volume and pan of ez, i've made a template that you can use that routes all the drums to seperate outs, so you can automate them easily and add effects to the seperate outs.

So cool!! Thanks!!

It didn´t work, ´cause I have it installed as an AU and not as a VST, but really big thanks for the effort!!

Still I wonder if there is any chance of midi-learn to get an advantage out of the onboard effects of Superior Drummer without workaround.
