Toontrack, EZ drummer issues with Latin Percussion.

I bought and installed LP yesterday and It's not working correctly. Several pieces in the kit will not play and on those I can't click the arrow to change the drum. Everything is up to date and I've sent screen shots to Toontrack and have talked to them about the problem. They say they have not ever seen this before and do not have a quick answer. They say they will forward the problem on to the programmers in Sweden and get back to me someday. I've tried to un-install and re-install, but it hasn't made a difference. I've tried it in X2 also, it still has the same behavior. Has anyone seen anything like this before? Any ideas on what to try next? The uninstaller inside the LP folder will not work either so I had to try and find it all, and manually delete.

    Again today I tried to re download Latin Percussion (this time using Google chrome). Same result. 14 of the 26 pieces will not work at all.

    I'll double check that...Thanks scook. I'm not optimistic though. I can't even click on the arrow of these pieces to change or sample the sounds. They don't work at all. It's strange. All other Toontrack expansions I have work fine and are in the same folders as the others. The uninstall won't work either. Toontrack told me that the LP epx and the Rock solid are different than the others and won't appear in the add/remove list. When I open the LP folder and click on uninstall it says I need to update to latest software. I have had Toontrack confirm that all of my software is the latest and they said they have never seen that error before. I guess I'm special!

    Yep those are all in the sounds folder. At the bottom of the list in Sound stats it says 1079 kb.

    Yeah, this is special. Never having an issue with Toontrack, I do not have many ideas about what to do. None of them very pleasant. In addition to an uninstall what about rolling back Windows to a point before the initial expansion pack install? Or a complete uninstall of everything Toontrack and install EZDrummer and just the Latin Percussion to see if it makes a difference.

    Yeah, I've never had a problem with Toontrack either. I've thought about uninstalling all of my Toontrack stuff and starting over, but I don't know if this is worth it. I believe I'll wait and see if Toontrack ever write me back with a suggestion. I'm also considering selling the license at KVR and buying Session percussion from xln audio or maybe trying to find a latin percussion loops pack or something similar.

    I had (still have) problem with Twisted Kit. The downloaded file was missing several wav files and only solution was for TT to send the dvd by mail.
    Perhaps that is another thing to try?

    That's not a bad idea...I'll suggest it to them. It looks to me like their download link has the problem since all other ezxs work fine.

    From Toontrack, 
     

    Hi Clint,
     
    Sorry for the delay. We are still awaiting to hear from our programmers.
     
    We can not send you a disc because all physical discs contain license numbers. If we were to send you a disc we would be supplying an extra license number that has not been paid for.
     
     
     
    (I can think of a few unkind and sarcastic things to say, but I will wait and see if they fix the issue first.)

    Clint
    I did have something vaguely like this a few years ago - I am desperately trying to remember exactly what it was though!!
    It was in superior and I had various kit pieces missing in one of the packages - I think what cured it was a TOTAL uninstall and re-install - however I did not have that many packages at the time and it was fairly painless - now I have quite a few and it would be a ROYAL PITA. I don't know how many you have, if not too many it might be the thing to do.
    Hope that helps a little

    That's odd, I have a VSSD box that I got when I purchase download version of SDXs, That box contains DVD's with every SDX and EZX available at that time. You can install any of them but not run it without the serial number, which is purchased separately.
     
    Looks like you cannot purchase it separately http://www.toontrack.com/forum/tm.aspx?m=123528 
    You could however see if they will send you one. It does not contain license numbers so the argument is not valid.
     
    Edit - Someone is selling VSSD boxes via Amazon http://www.amazon.com/Toontrack-Music-VSSD-installers-titles/dp/B007X0AQLI - $ 149.95, somebody is going to be very unhappy if they think they can use any of it without buying a licence!

    To help you out, I just took the time to uninstall my Latin Percussion EZX, download the website library and install it.  I have reproduced your problem and I will report it through the betatester access.

    I did some further testing and the actual sound library is fine as far as I can tell.  Opening up the Latin Percussion EZX within Superior Drummer works as expected.  The Latin Percussion library hasn't had an update and I think that one of the EZdrummer updates might have broken something with it's relationship with the download library.  Maybe a config file.
     
    Since I have had the Latin Percussion EZX since the time when it was on a DVD, I never saw an issue.  Don't know why.  
     
    The good news is that the actual pieces are there and play via a keyboard controller or via the grooves in the browser.  
     
    I've created a problem report for you.

    Thanks a lot! I really, really appreciate you taking the time on my behalf. I'm glad it isn't my PC or a registry issue. Your kindness will be returned if I ever get the opportunity. I have sent you my e-mail.
