Quick Ezdrumnmer/reaper Question, Help Options

[Ulrik]

Hi, I tried putting some premade drum grooves in Reaper, and it sounded fine when I exported it.

Today I tried doing my own grooves, but when I try to export a file, the drums are turned into pianosounds from the pianoroll.
Help for heavens sake, oh the humanity, what have I done wrong this time?


EDIT:
I now see I can "render" as a wav.file, but I wanted midi or MP3. Guess I'll just find an online converter.
Do any data get lost, when turned into wav instead of MP3?

Now I got another problem, I tried reading almost everywhere and watching tutorials, but cannot solve my problem.


I got it all working up until a couple of weeks ago.
Now I can open EZdrummer by itself, but when I open it in Reaper, there is no sound.

I normally use Pro Tracks Plus for recording, but this started lagging so much, that recording is impossible, around the same time I got Reaper problems.

All other audio programs are working fine.


So maybe it is something about my overall sound configuration?
I guess this could be a lot of different things, and I don't know what it is.
Any of you sound and pc experts got some ideas?

It worked some weeks ago, so I'm really frustrated.

If you have that Pro Tracks Plus why do you need Reaper ?
Does the Ezdrummer open in Pro tracks ?

Have you installed Pro track afterwards ?

Maybe You should try to re-install all programs. Ezdrummer and Pro tracks. Maybe it works ?

Cheers

Ville


Edit Dude that Pro tracks is old program. Like 2003 !! If you're using newer Win than WinXP it may not work properly !!
Un-install it and use reaper !!

I bought the DigiTech GNX4 around 2003, and Pro tracks is the software, that came along.
What I don't understand is that both programs were working just fine, and now they are not.
I haven't tried EZdrummer in Pro Tracks, don't know if that is possible.

I really hoped, I could avoid reinstalling as, it was hard enough to get to work in the first place.

You are launching EZ drummer inside of reaper right? not launching it separately? Also, is it on a MIDI track ? If not you won't hear much Also, is MONITORING on for that track? It's probably just a setting. These are the bits that bite you at first in reaper. It gets easier as you go.

Post your project file and I'll have a look

(When posting a reaper project, always zip up using winzip the entire folder for the project. This is file management which is now part of being a musician or really part of doing anything creative with a computer )

I just rendered one of the grooves dragged from EZ (opened in reaper).
No sound in reaper, but the rendered file plays ok in media player.
It's like Reaper is not connected to my loudspeakers (It used to be)
