Problems after installing EZdrummer2

I installed EZDrummer2 yesterday and using it with an existing project it worked fine.  I noticed some oddness when exporting individual tracks but I managed to find a work around. 
 
I never use the simple instrument tracks so I can't test with that.

I opened a project with SIT's (EZD and Trillian), old template, and I want to say that Trillian was miss routed.
I split both out and "fixed" the routing, and saved (don't think I did a save as).
I stopped using SIT's some time ago...
I think I pulled Trillian up from the "rack" not the "track", so can't comment; but I'll check it out.
EZD2 was "happy" replacing EZD.

I opened a previous project after installing EZdrummer 2 and found the the same problem. A few synths had their inputs selected to EZdrummer 2 (from EZdrummer 2's 16 stereo outputs) and not their own output. 
 
I corrected the synths inputs and did a "save as" then the project loaded as normal.
 
Did EZdrummer 1 have 16 outputs (8 stereo outputs)?.
 
EZdrummer 2 has 32 outputs (16 stereo outputs). This may be a reason the routing has changed.

To "fix" an SIT, you have to split the track, correct the routing, and then make back into an SIT.
 
Some tracks where I had EZdrummer using eight outs are all over the place.
 
I can't decide whether to give up and un-install EZdrummer2 again, or face hours of work re-routing dozens of projects..

I just opened a project created with EZD (in X2a x32) on the "Cat" (X3e x64)
and EZD2 had everything routed correctly.

I had TTS in there as well; it all seemed ok.
 
I'll check some more projects later

Hi guys,
 
Your definitly not the only ones. I also have the same issue since I installed EZDrummer 2.
My recently made songs, which used EZDrummer (1) now don't play sounds anymore from most of the Virtual Synths.
 
After Installing the brand new EZDrummer2 drum synth most of my synths don't give any sound anymore within the same project.
 
Strange thing is that the tracks that don't produce anymore sound seem to be outputing or at least linked to the EZDrummer2 folder, because when I solo a track which doesn't produce sound anymore than also the EZDrummer2 folder gets a half solo button lit and the MIDI Source track of the EZDrummer2 folder is also soloed.
 
Tried re-installing EZDrummer2, but still same problem. Removing it and installing EzDrummer (1) again and the problem was gone.
 
I tried installing a complete new synth of EZDrummer2, copied the midi data from the old midi source track to the new track and finally tried to remove the old EZDrummer2 synth from the browser's synth list (including removing related tracks). Than SONAR X3e crashed!!
 
Tried changing inputs and outputs of the silent tracks, but that did not help either.
 
Can anyone give a clear explaination if they found a work around for this?

I had to go back several years to find an EZdrummer project with multiouts but I can reproduce your problem.   
 
Just to check something out, I went and found some Studio One projects with the same multi-out EZdrummer and other soft synths present and there was no routing issues present there.  I don't recall seeing this in Pro Tools as well but I hopefully can find a PT project prior to the EZD2 beta so I can check it out there also.
 
Regardless of that, I'm sure the issue will be important to Toontrack and it has already been noted.  Hopefully the SONAR team and the EZdrummer team can get together and find where the communication problem is.

Created a new project on the office rig (X2a x86).
EZD1 multi outs
Dim Pro
Rapture
Zeta2
took it out to the Studio
EZD2 did indeed "grab" all the outputs.
Closing this project "crashed" x3e.
Zeta2 did not "play" so I deleted it.
Project still "crashed" on closing.
Interestingly enough Sonar did NOT create a minidump either time. ??
Opened the project I had moved out there yesterday, and tracked and mixed some with NO problems.
It worked fine!
Opened an "old" project, all synths were "frozen" in that one.
Un-froze (is that right?) EZD1, and EZD2 had everything "right" with the multi-outs.
Only "issue" there is the disabled "bleeds", I had to go into the mixer and fix that.
I don't like "bleed", that's what gates used to be for.
 
I'll be out of town the next two weeks, will have to troubleshoot the crashes then.
I DON'T believe that was an EZD2 issue.
Zeta2 has been wonky since I install x3e, maybe before, I don't use it alot...

I've not heard back from Toontrack support, and not heard anything from Cakewalk support yet.

Yes keep us updated. Watching this one.

Thanks, Ryan, I have sent you a couple of projects.
 
To see the issue you would have had to have start a project using EZdrummer1, then installed EZdrummer2, and then opened the project.
 
It doesn't matter if you used multi out or stereo out.
 
I just checked possible meanings of NFR - I assume you mean "Not For Resale" rather than "Nude Full Reverse Massage"?   Mind you, they are Swedish.. 

Just wanted to clarify a couple of things, as there seems to be some misinformation about this issue floating around the forum.

1. It has nothing to do with 48k.

2. It is not an issue only affecting multi-out instances of EZdrummer2, it also affects stereo out instances too.

Please see my comments above, but I now have a serious problem I can't seem to fix.
 
I was able to unfreeze the synths, split the instrument tracks, and reset the Ins and Outs.  I have one VST (Session Drummer 3), however, that will not unfreeze so I can't fix it.  Any thoughts?

not being pedantic, but being pedantic, can you qualify this? so far it's just two forum users saying yes it is/no it isn't... thx :-)

Yes JB is right. Dave (modbod) also can reproduce the problem and he's not on 48k either.

Not sure I have time to keep creating new projects that would exhibit the behavior. New projects may or may not have the problems experienced with existing ones. Toontrack is now on my bad list because my forum posts there are sitting for days waiting for moderation and the known problem pages are broken links. Meanwhile I am stalled on professional projects.
