I have an feeling i get whatever Alex wrote.........., for once.

Personally :

I insert EZ2 as a soft synth, multiple outputs
I move/slide the midi data from the EZ1 folder to the EZ 2 folder and change its target to the EZ2 engine.
I delete the EZ1 folder
I select my EZ2 kit and if neçessary re-assign outputs, as and when i want to
I make music.
Where is the show stopping problem ?

Its a "hassle" sure, but a few clicks.....

Cheers,
Jerry

EZ2 is in my wishlist, their site states that the plugin supports Sonar X1 and above.  In my opinion, the responsability of this information is theirs and not Cakewalk's.  It sounds pretty nonsense that they didn't know that EZ1 owners wouldn't have problems with routings, didn't they test it?!  And worse, EZ2 overwrites EZ1... :o((


Last week their site stated the plugin supports Sonar 8.5 and above.
I wonder if next week it will state Plugin supports Sonar X3 or above.
It should state - plugin supports but does not function as advertised in Sonar X1 and above.
Hurrah for Sonar X1 and above. 
Thumbs down for EZ2.

For you users who are waiting for an EZdrummer solution from Toontracks, I checked back with them again on this issue.  Erik of Toontrack asked for some help from Cakewalk back on June 16th.  Cakewalk asked them to try some things from within SONAR.  Since then nothing.

Without Cakewalk's help they cannot find where the problem lies.  SONAR is the only host that has this problem and without some inside information from Cakewalk they are at a stand still at finding a final solution.
 
EDIT:
I need to correct my post regarding the timeline of the contacts with Cakewalk.  TT developers sent emails to CW on May 8th.  This was, as I have been told, two days after the release of EZdrummer 2.  Since then, eight more emails have been sent asking why the problem occurred so that changes in EZD2 may be done in order to accommodate SONAR's behavior.

Hi, Mod,
I don't think it's a good policy to realease a software/plugin, state full compatibility when upgrading from EZ1 and only after that, try to resolve the problems. In my opinion, I cannot sell anything If I cannot garantee what I'm stating is true.  When you scroll down the "Meet your new drummer" page, in the unsupported hosts, you can see statements like this: "Untested, may work", and even so, the table shows the check mark in some functionalities, which seems contraditory...  It doesn't sound good to me, causes a impression of irresponsability...
