EZ Upgrade choice! I agree I jumped on the upgrade price. $79 wasn't bad considering what is new. The ability to take different parts from one groove, add it to another, and construct a new groove is really nice. The new grid editor is what I have been really wanting from EZD since it came out. These two features alone would make me get the upgrade. They definitely carried over features from EZ Bass to EZD3. And that's a big plus!!

(yeah, right! admit you are useless and weak) So @cclarry what's the best deal on EZD2 for those who are not yet on the ToonTrain? Thomann at $138? One presumes that would entitle one to the "free" upgrade. Will the upgrade be discounted by dealers? t the dealer is a man with a lot of grass in his hand the pusher is a monster Edited April 4, 2022 by DeeringAmps 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cclarry Posted April 4, 2022 Author Share Posted April 4, 2022 The $79 deal is a very reasonable upgrade price IMO! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe with the new EZK 2 coming out (pure speculation on my part!), it will also have the grid editor and such as EZ Bass and Drummer, so that they will bring them all together into one type of interface where they all work together. Make changes to the keys and it reflects in the bass and drums. I am dreaming here!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With all the good new features it is worth it. There is even a ability to add another track to the grid like EZBass, so you have the virtual scratch pad for EZD3!! That's a big bonus!!! BIG!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott H Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 For those of you thinking of passing on EZDrummer 3 and waiting for Superior Drummer 4, don’t hold your breath too long. EZDrummer 2 was released on May 2014. Superior Drummer 3 was released October 2017 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sander Verstraten Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 I also think they want to keep SD as a separate product. So while they make the EZ series integrate with one another to a certain level. I don't believe they would with SD4, not unless they come up with Superior Bapu, err.

Tim Smith Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 Almost none of the pre cut loops in any drum program I tried work out for me, so I end up building them in midi anyways. New midi loops don't give me much confidence. I guess I am a pessimist here. I bought EZ drummer on a deal when things started to get shaky for BFD 3. Until then I had been a BFD fan. Even after I made the conversion to their new setup under new ownership I lost access to my ziljian cymbals. Not a lot of love on other forums for BFD. BFD 3 though is killer. BFD weren't as concerned about GUI. It looks like with this new version of EZ drummer, they went back to a flashy GUI. The upgrade price is pretty good on these. I need to decide which program I'm going to work in. I think the loops in the Komplete kits are better than the old EZ drummer. There are a few decent basic patterns in there....and I have tons of nice samples in STMAX. Not sure what the advantage to working with midi in a dedicated drum GUI is compared to working with midi in say, the included Cakewalk drum set which isn't too shabby. You can't layer bass midi over drum midi in a dedicated GUI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like "The Rooms of Hansa" SDX is coming to EZDrummer... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New midi loops don't give me much confidence This is where the "midi drop zone" works for me. Create a 2 measure pattern, I use the kick and snare (duh). Bounce that clip so it is exactly 2 measures long. Drop it in the "drop zone". EZD will throw a bunch of grooves at ya. Now if you don't have a plethora (think myself and Baps here) then of course your choices will be limited. As I said; "works for me". I can "tart" up a track pretty quickly this way...YMMV t 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
