CHANGES

General

A print function has been added to the MIDI Mapping Layout window.

BUG FIXES

General

Loading a Drums and Mixer Preset from the EZdrummer 3 core libraries or Big Stage EZX did not properly set the values of the mixer effect knobs.

Loading cymbals or toms from the other side of the stereo field did not automatically flip their stereo position like EZdrummer 2 did. Importing EZdrummer 2 projects or loading user presets could also have this issue.

On Windows, loading an auto-save would incorrectly treat it as a normal project and it would be added to the Open Recent menu.

Song Track

In Steinberg hosts when host playback was started and the plug-in window had not yet been opened, MIDI on the song track would not always be played at the beginning, depending on the playhead position and where it had last been stopped. Performing an Audio Mixdown would also result in silence from the song track before the position was reached where playback had last been stopped.

In Steinberg hosts, starting playback of the song track inside the plug-in (with the host still paused) not would not work properly if the SD3 playhead had been moved to an earlier position than the host playhead (with the Follow Host setting on).

Exporting the track as audio having a sample rate other than 44100 Hz could in some cases lead to a crash.

On Windows, it did not work to export as audio to a folder whose path contained non-ASCII characters. If instead the filenames (the chosen prefix) contained such characters, the export would work but some extra empty files would be created.

The time signature editor would in some case contain the wrong Options menu – the one for the tempo editor.

E-Drums/MIDI In

When Add or Learn Note/CC was used, the new line in the mapping list was sometimes not immediately visible.

Editing the hi-hat CC control did not enable/disable the hi-hat calibration slider when needed.
