This is what Toontrack Support replied (literally): “we recommend selecting one of the available titles for EZK as there may not be any new libraries for EZK released once EZK 2 is out (meaning that future add-ons will be for EZK2 only).”
So when you already have all instruments you ‘d like, you’re shit out of luck.
Don’t know if it’s the same for midi, but if they’re going to hit us hard on those sound expansions …
Anyway, at least the registered expansions and midi will run in EZKeys 2.
But I’m still left with a Waves kind of feeling.
They told me any remaining EZKeys sound expansion serials won’t work for EZKeys 2. And they told me to register them before May 16th. But I’m out of options. That’s a Waves kinda policy.
And what about third party sellers? Used to get my Toontrack fix from Time+Space and Best Service. The former’s gone, the latter survives, but would they carry EZKeys 2 and add-ons?
