ng, wait until you get a load of Toontrack EZdrummer 3. The third time is definitely the charm: this virtual drum software takes the concept of “EZ” drum production to an entirely new level. Finding grooves is effortless with this virtual drum software, thanks to its gigantic, wide-ranging MIDI library. EZdrummer 3’s browser has been given a significant makeover. For starters, its Tap2Find function has been fortified with a built-in step sequencer. You can also isolate specific elements from different grooves and combine them to create new ones. Creating custom-tailored grooves is a walk in the park with EZdrummer 3. Feed the virtual instrument an instrument track from your song, and its Bandmate feature will automatically generate a realistic drum performance that matches its feel and groove. EZdrummer 3 also makes editing grooves an effortless endeavor, thanks to overhauled Power Hand features, a turbocharged Grid Editor, and automatic humanization with varied articulations and more. And to top it off, EZD3 comes with a sound library of seven drum kits — plus extras — all captured at the legendary Hansa Tonstudio in Berlin, Germany, by Grammy-winning recording/mixing engineer Michael Ilbert. EZdrummer 3 also boasts a massive cache of mix-ready presets, along with a fully scalable and resizable graphical user interface.
Find grooves and build songs the EZ way
EZdrummer 3’s MIDI library is vast, covering the full gamut of musical genres. Whether you’re creating pop, rock, electronic, hip-hop, reggae, or something else entirely, EZD3 is ready and willing to accommodate you. This virtual drummer’s acclaimed Tap2Find feature includes a step sequencer, enabling you to record groove mockups in seconds. You can single out parts from different grooves to instantly create new ones. The music makers here at Sweetwater are especially stoked about EZdrummer 3’s Bandmate feature, which allows you to feed a single-instrument MIDI or audio track from your song to the software to create a custom groove. Beyond that, you’ll find that EZD3 makes creating outlines for song parts fast and — well, easy.
Take groove editing to a higher level
Editing your grooves in Toontrack EZdrummer 3 is extremely intuitive, Thanks to advanced play-style editing you don’t even need to look at a grid. You can add complexity to ghost notes with a twist of the Amount editor, and you can deploy beefed-up Power Hand features to really nail the vibe you’re aiming for. Cutting-edge humanization features provide automatic adjustment of velocity and micro-timing, while articulations are automatically varied to increase your groove’s overall expression. Thanks to all these baked-in automatic features, talking to EZdrummer 3 is almost like talking to a human drummer.
Sounds from Hansa
A virtual drummer is only as good as its sound library, and EZdrummer 3 really pulls out all the stops. The core library contains seven gorgeous-sounding drum kits, along with a whole host of extras, captured by Grammy-winning recording/mixing engineer Michael Ilbert at the world-famous Hansa Studios in Berlin, Germany. You get three different rooms with three completely different vibes. The Bright Room with reflective marble walls; the Main Room with a spacious, yet not overpowering sound; and the Tight Room with a dry, transparent character. Best of all, this library was crafted especially for EZdrummer 3; it’s not derived from the Rooms of Hansa SDX expansion.

EZ MIDI
Toontrack’s EZbass virtual instrument brings the same great sound and intuitive workflow that made EZdrummer a staple to the world of bass guitar. Far more than a virtual instrument, EZbass offers amazing sound quality and fundamental features that let you add realistic bass tracks to your songs with minimal effort. You can choose between Vintage and Modern tones and let EZbass instantly build you a bass line, convert pre-recorded guitar, piano, and drums to MIDI, or input your bass line with a keyboard controller. According to Erik Phersson, Toontrack’s Head of Software Development, EZbass “goes above and beyond a traditional sampled instrument. EZbass is a bass player as much as it is an immaculate sound library.” Solo artists and producers at Sweetwater have long valued Toontracks virtual instruments for letting them fill out their songs with immaculate-sounding parts, even when they don’t play those instruments. And, with EZbass, it’s easier than ever to add rock-solid groove to your productions without ever picking up a bass.

EZbass will create a line that locks in both rhythmical and melodically. Got a rhythmic idea kicking around your head? With EZbass, you can simply tap in a rhythm and the software will match it to numerous groove variations found in EZbass’s MIDI library. EZbass also has the ability to convert audio tracks, including guitar, keyboard, and drum performances, to MIDI and generate a complimentary bassline.
