...and then I saw you're using Cubase ahhhh.. YES!!! my DAW of choice as well! xD Got a similar set up and its sounds surprisinly good. Cheers mate and thanks for the video! ❤
I have a td6-v era set.Ezx by Toontrack has made my kit sound astronomically better!!! And sometimes I will combine the original sounds with the software sounds for even more combinations,In my DAW.
Great video I’ll definitely use this when I set up my kit. Question, are you able to jam along to music using Spotify for example while using EZD and hearing the drums with your music? If so how do you do it? I’m using td17, usb to midi into MacBook. Do headphones plug into module or Mac? Do I need an interface to do it? Thanks!
I got all my stuff set up and you don’t need an audio interface or DAW unless you want to record yourself then you need a DAW. EzD3 works as a standalone plugin for e drums. So it can run by itself. I run my td17 module into the MacBook with a usb cable, and plug my headphones into my MacBook. I can use Spotify on my MacBook while running EZD and can hear them both, and adjust the volume of each individually
@BC0101it’s probably because TH-cam requires too much energy from the computer while running EZD which also requires a lot of energy and it’s messing up EZD. I’d either just use Spotify or download the song on TH-cam and save it as an audio file to play to.
@@mathiasfeitzinger4619 i tried without interface,,directly from module to laptop,, but there will be latency.n also bc of my low budget laptop. .soo u need a high end PC/LAPTOP or..if u have mac then it will work fine without latency
@@mathiasfeitzinger4619 On Windows you will need an external Audio Interface, as the internal audio will have too much delay, to output the sound from the DAW to your Headphones or Speakers. Standard suggestion for an interface would be some simple Focusrite Solo or 2i2. I am using a Yamaha AG-06 which gives me more versatility with in- and outputs.
Yes, absolutely. Just connect the MPS750X Pro to your computer via USB and follow the instructions in the video. You should also use an audio interface.
Most cymbal pads have a choke function today. In case of the MPS-750 it's all set up in the preset. If you can choke your cymbals with the on board sounds of your kit, you can do it in EZdrummer as well. Cheers!
Hi. I have the same e-drums, but I'm using just the USB directly to a Mac where I have Logic Pro installed. I had an audio interface for a while but I could not make it work. Would you mind explaining the connection setup with an external audio interface? Thanks
Hey 😊 I'm the guy who made the video. I'm explaining the process with an external audio interface in the video. If you are having trouble getting your audio interface to work you might look for videos about that particular model 😊 Cheers!
Hey, mir bleibt eine Frage offen. Kann ich mein Drum Modul (bei mir ist es das MPS1000) einfach via USB an meinen Laptop anschließen und über das Audio Interface, welches auch per USB an den Laptop angeschlossen ist, nutzen? Also ohne eine direkte Verbindung zwischen Audio Interface und Drum Modul?
Hey :) Ich bin der Typ aus dem Video ;) Ja klar, so wird es ja auch erklärt. Das MPS-1000 arbeitet dann als ein MIDI-Controller. Du musst es dazu nicht direkt mit dem Audiointerface verbinden. Es gibt übrigens auch eine deutsche Version des Videos. Findest du in der TH-cam-Suche.
I'm a little annoyed that the cross stick works this way on EZdrummer.. you shouldn't have to choose between crossstick and rimshot, you should be able to do both. On my td17 brain you can choose the pad, assuming you have the right snare pad, and tweek some and get it to function like an actual snare drum eg cross stick with the stick flat on the snare, rimshot where it should be etc.. so it's definitely possible..what's up with EZdrummer making it weird?
This is not an EZdrummer problem. The MPS850 that I use in the video can only send one MIDI note for the snare rim zone. So you have to decide. If your kit can send out a different MIDI note for each technique, you can do both. I'm not sure how it works with the TD17. Efnote kits for example have two separate sensors. Cheers!
Hi Bonedo, can you please help me to configure ezdrums to my computer? once i've installed the main program, it asks me to give the path to the midi and the EZXs library, i've choosen the default path of a midi bundle that i've found and set it to C:\ Programdata Toontrack etc etc..(the default one) , but nothing happens. do i need the core library? is this the cause? because i haven't downloaded yet. thank you for you kind help my friend.
The core library comes with the stand alone EZ drummer 3 program. I have a couple ideas. Did you set your edrum brain to connect to the ezdrummer program rather than it's own internal sounds? Did you make sure that you chose the correct presets for your edrums in the ezdrum program? (He touches on that in this video) Did you choose the correct input and output settings on your computer? Are the virtual drums reacting to your hits on the edrums but you cant hear them, or are is the program not reacting at all?
thank for your answer Bonedo. actually i'm stucked in the initial configuration part. once i've finished to install the program and i open it, it asks the path to the correct Midi, EZKs and also the preset. but what should be the correct path for the preset? because i can't do the way you did it because i can't reach that point. i havent connect the MPS-850 to the computer, so, no the program can't react at all to the impulse of the edrum. any suggestions my friend?
@@RiccardoNorris yes down load the core library, hook everything up and see if your edrums show up on EZdrummer in the audio midi set up screen.. I thought I got an extra sounds library when I got the program but couldn't find the sounds so I was messing around with the path too, but it didn't end up being the issue. make sure you have everything downloaded, open the program, make sure the drum sounds are there, connect your edrums etc.. I predict it will work. what kind of computer are you using?
@@stsmith77thank for your suggestion Smith, i've fix the problem, now i have a question: In Ezdrummer Standalone, can I load a WAV file to play Drums along and record the drum ?
hi! i dont know if this is a bit of a dumb question, but is an audio interface necessary for this? thinking of getting the Millenium MPS 850 too, i just wanted to know if its module capabilities are good enough for someone who has never played drums before.
@@NorthernMonkeyMusic thanks! ive seen some other drummers who said the regular USB port worked well enough for them, granted you have a beefy computer to handle it.
It might work on a mac. I'm a pc guy - you can use ASIO4ALL to get the latency lower. But if I were you, I'd get a small audio interface for several reasons. Better stability, better headphone amps, better coverters...
So.... just curious as to why you clearly hooked up the blue USB cable to the backside of the drum module, yet, throughout the entire video, the blue USB cable is attached to the interface? Why is it that? Are you new to these types of videos? And did that unintentionally? Or are you being deceptive?
LOL If you were really a good observer you would have noticed that there are 2 blue cables. The lighter blue cable is the one used for midi. And the darker blue for the interface. Look @ 1:53

Can you please share your exact hi hat set up? My hi hat does not work well at all and I am using Milenium MPS-1000
finally EZD include the LEARN midi Mapping... make me crazy en EZD2 search the midi note in the module
I don't get it...r u using interface??? Or directly drom module to computer???
@aggiberger8948 I'm not sure either. Do I need an audio interface or will it work without one? If I do, what cheap interface do you recommend?

In Ezdrummer Standalone, can I load a WAV file to play Drums along and record the drum ?
I don't think so. I'd get a small version of a DAW software and use EZdrummer as a plugin.

It's easy via MIDI learn. It's all explained in the video :)

Yes, as the driver allows for the low latency that is needed for playing live. You can get fairly cheap ones that work well (focusrite/Audient etc)
