Need help with drum maps issue


Recommended Posts

I've been using Addictive Drums since it became available with old Sonar.  My standard new project template includes an Addictive Drums synth track and associated MIDI track, which outputs to a Drum Map that someone on the old forum kindly made available years ago.

I recently updated AD 2 to AD 2.5.  The installation wiped out old AD 2.  As a result, all of my previous projects get a missing plugin placeholder for AD 2.  I've used "Replace Synth" to replace it with AD 2.5.  However, the  drum map used as the AD 2 MIDI track's output has as an "Out Port" whatever the first plugin in the file is after AD 2.  For example, I'm looking at a project right now where the drum map's Out Port is Reaktor 6 instead of AD 2.5 (which replaced the missing AD 2 plugin).  The "Ports and Channels" section in Drum Map Manager does not appear to be editable, and the only way I have found to edit the Out Port in the main section is one note at a time - selecting multiple notes at a time doesn't appear to allow them to be editable, at least as far as the Out Port is concerned.

I have an awful lot of projects affected by this.  Any better way to change the Out Port back to Addictive Drums than one note at a time would be really helpful.  Suggestions?

I was just going to add that the UID of plugin should not have changed with the update to v2.5. My guess is that your old projects were using the VST2 and you only installed the VST3 version of the plugin when you updated. If that's the case, Installing the VST2 will save you time having to correct the drum maps in multiple projects.

Ah, I'll be that was it.  I'm going to reinstall v2.5 now.  Thanks!

Edit:  Just reinstalled with VST2 and all is well now.  Thanks again!
