EzDrummer in garageband 2.0

will dfh ezDrummer work with garageband 2.0? i listened to the toontracks demos, and they are nice, but i don't want to spend $100.00 if the program isn't compatible.
thanks

Apple Support doesn't support iTunes Store issues and often doesn't really know what they're talking about. The iTunes Store has no phone support. Presuming you downloaded the new version of GarageBand using the same iTunes Store ID and password you previously purchased the instruments under, go here:
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store.
If you used a different Apple ID, that's probably why it's not working. You'll need to either delete GarageBand and try to re-download it using the ID you purchased the instruments under, or repurchase the instruments.
Regards.

Anyone here use a DrumKAT with Garageband?

Maybe someone can help. My setup is DrumKAT (dk10) into iMac with MIDI-USB cable. My problem is when I close the HiHat with my Pintech pedal, all the pad sound start wavering with tremelo. It does not happen if I play through EZDrummer with Garageband closed, but I'll be needing to record in Garageband and I like the standard drum sounds in Garageband '09.
Does anyone have the answer as to why this is happening? Or if you have a DrumKAT and do not notice this, what is your setup?

Update, Here we are a month later. I upgraded from a DrumKAT dk10 to a 3.8. I did this because I discovered the dk10 didn't have a continuously variable hit hat control function. Well, one of the first things I did after getting lost in the complicated DrumKAT interface for a few hours, was controlling Garageband.
No boing boing with the 3.8.....however, now the hat pedal raises the note like a tympani pedal. I'm sure this is not an Apple problem, but a DrumKAT problem, but still, if anyone is using any KAT with any Apple computer, please respond.

Ezdrummer doesnt work with garageband 10

I recently upgraded the OS to Maverick in order to have the latest GB installed. But this had cause me to unable to load the Ezdrummer track normally. Seems like the plugin was not recognized anymore. Do anyone have this problem before?

Looking for help getting EZdrummer to work in Logic Pro 9

First off let me say I have looked everywhere and even talked to toontack about the following problem. Toontrack as said that the plug-in is working properly and the problem is with Logic.
Ok so I purchased toontrack ezdrummer and drumkit from ****. After installing them and updating to ezrumming 1.2 I am unable to load ezdrummer in logic pro 9. The really strange thing is that it will launch when using garageband and fully function.
In logic it is not in AU manager and not there for selection in the channel strip, so I thought at first that it was only installing as a VST. However, when looking in Library>Audio>Plug-Ins>Components, EZdrummer.component is there. I thought this was where Logic looked for AU plug-ins but I'm now thinking thats wrong but I've not been able to find anything saying different.
Please guys any help you can offer would be outstanding. I'm so fed up I'm about to get a refund but I would rather use this software.
Thanks.

EZDrummer works fine here.
You could try trashing this file:
Macintosh HD/Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/com.apple.audiounits.cache
On the next launch, Logic will rescan all your plugins.
You could also try a new OS X user account.
And what exact version of Logic are you using?

Please help:Midipipe no longer works after Garageband/iMac upgrades

Hi. I was wondering if anyone could help. I use my Yamaha Dtxplorer electronic drums to record drums on my iMac's Garageband program. I use a program called "midipipe" to assign the correct midi drum pad sounds before the signal goes into Garageband, and then I use the "EZdrummer" plug-in to get more realistic drums sounds. Here's the problem. In June 2011, I upgraded my iMac to "Snow Leopard" (Mac OS 10.6.7), and at the same time, I upgraded Garageband to Garageband '11 (ie Garageband 2011). Now that I did those 2 upgrades, I can no longer get midipipe to work in any way. There are NO drums sounds coming out through midipipe now, and when trying to tweak the settings, there is no longer any way to click the "hijack" checkbox on the midipipe "midi in" setting. The "hijack" button is now "greyed-out" and cannot be selected. Now I can no longer use my drums with Garageband, which is really, really disheartening. It seems like all I run into with my iMac and Garageband is nothing but problems and glitches that are making me considering recording my music on a Windows computer, and ditching my iMac altogether. I've already tried repeatedly to create new "pipes" with midipipe, but nothing will work since I cannot select the "hijack" button anymore. This problem occurred only after the Garageband and iMac upgrades, and midipipe used to work PERFECTLY with garageband and ezdrummer before. Nothing else in my set-up has changed.
If anyone has ANY possible solutions, please help. I've wasted so much time with this computer already. All I want is for it to work properly. Thank you very much in advance.
Rich

Hi JMX. No, I've had no luck trying to figure out the problem, which started ever since I upgraded my iMac and upgraded Garbageband. No replies except yours, and I googled a bunch of web pages trying to find an answer. The guy who programmed the Midipipe program didn't reply either. I'm thinking about getting a Windows computer to record music, along with Protools. Have horrible luck with Garageband since the day I bought my iMac, unfortunately. Nothing but glitches and problems.
But I wish you (and anyone else running into the same problem) the best of luck. I just don't have the patience for the contstant obstacles when trying to use an Apple Mac to record songs.

Please help me install EZDrummer

I once installed Ez drummerVSTi on my I-mac. Since i did not need it, i uninstalled it using the uninstaller. After i found that i could use it with GB, i am trying to install EZD. It says installation complete but in
..Library/Audio/Plug-ins/Components. 'EZdrummer.component does not exist at all.
No EZD folder is being created. What do i do?

1) Make sure you are using the latest EZD version (1.1.5) required for 10.5+ If you're registered, it's a free download.
2) Reinstall EZD 1.1.5 and don't select custom - install both VST and AU versions
3) Check here for how to select EZD in GarageBand:
http://www.toontrack.com/forum/tm.aspx?m=68354 (you need to be registered)
4) EZD doesn't support Cubase LE, although it might work. See here for link to compatibility chart
http://www.toontrack.com/ezdrummer.asp#instrumentlist
Notice that drag & drop isn't supported in LE
You'll have better luck in the GarageBand or Toontrack forums: this is the Logic forum and you haven't yet mentioned using EZD in Logic.
Good luck!

EZDrummer and Leopard compatability. Has anybody got it to work.

Just got my Mac mini and have been trying to get EZDrummer to work in garageband 08. I open up garage band and use a software track, but when I drop down the instrument generator there is no EZDrummer option anywhere.
Has anybody got this to work? If so what version and am I doing everything right in Garageband?

While I'm not on Leopard (got the disc, still waiting till the coast is clear) I did hit a few bumps in the road w/ EZD initially. I believe I had to update to the latest version, but now that that's cleared up, the program works great. Try dropping an email to Toontrack, their Customer Service is outstanding.

Leopard - Logic 8 - but no EZDrummer

Hi,
completely clean install of Leopard.
new install of Logic 8 Studio (All Disks).
Install of EZDrummer.
Now Logic cant find any EZDrummer AU
Ableton Live can find EZDrummer...
Anyone else experiencing similar??
Thanks.

I think I've got a solution:
I did a clean install for leopard this morning, then installed Logic Pro 8, then as far as EZ Drummer is concerned:
Installed 1.0
Then update to 1.0.4 (couldn't find my 1.1.1 install dmg in mybackup)
I started Logic 8, and mentionned above, nothing showed up (even in garageband)
I closed the apps, and *move both "AudfhV.component and EzDrummer.component" from HD>Lib>Audio to USER>Lib>Audio*
Logic now sees the plugin EZ Drummer... (don't ask me why!) And then you can authorize fine!
PS: I also noticed something:
When the AU Validator started scanning for the PSP audioware plugs I installed, I thought it was stuck, but it wasn't, +it was just waiting for me to enter the SN+. *But you can't see that window buried under Logic startup unless you click in the dock on the AUValidator icon!*
So if your progress bar seems stuck, it's not! it's just waiting for you! (I first thought all my psp plugs wouldnt work in L8&Leopard!)
PS2: would someone hook me up with the 1.1.1 update of EZ?

Garageband Audio Unit (AU) problem

Hello, my name is Ryan Minor and I use Garageband to record original songs and I use my USB keyboard to use the software instruments. I recently installed Garritan Personal Orchestra and Toontrack EZDrummer and I know these programs are compatible with Garageband however, when I try to switch the generator on a midi track in Garageband, Personal Orchestra and EZDrummer do not show up on the list. I have tried other free Audio Units (Crystal) and they work fine. Is this a common problem that I am overlooking. Please help me so I can use these programs!
Ryan Minor

I think i may have found the problem, I am using Leopard 10.5.2 now and i do not think that the Personal Orchestra and EZdrummer audio units are compatible with leopard yet, I am thinking about reverting to tiger so I can use these again Let me know if you think this may be the case or if anyone else is having these same problems. Thanks

How do I use Garageband for iPad with a real amp?

I play with a guy down the street who has a couple of amps set up. The one I use is kind of limited in it's tonal qualities. In my twenties and thirties I would have no problem hauling my own amp down there to get my tones dialed in, but I'm forty freakin' seven and too old for that! When I have tried to plug the iPad into my amp at home, I get terrible feedback. I used to have a Rockman (remember those?) and I could take it with me and plug into any guitar amp set to clean and be good to go, how do I do that with my iPad and Garageband?
I'm using a no name "y" cord with the 1/8" three ringed input into the ipad and a 1/8 stereo and 1/4 inch outputs-all sounds great on headphones, and with computer speakers, but need to plug into a real guitar amp.
I am using a 50 watt Yamaha to test and am having no luck at all. I know it has to do with impedance, but I am not very versed in how to get around it.
Thanks in advance!

Okay, after fiddling around some more, I’m able to get–some-settings to work. 1) set the real amp to clean settings (duh). Keep the volume on the low side (double duh). 2) stick to the smaller amps from the “clean and “processed” groups ofpresets.
The only way (so far) I’ve found to get some crunch is by turning the gain up on the GB amp you’re using,but only to a point, then I got feedback again.
Also, my “y” cord does have a name, it’s a GriffinTechnologies GuitarConnect Cable. I haven’t tried any of the other devices, so I can’t say if the feedbackwould be less irksome on other devices, but I kind of doubt it.

How do I use a bluetooth headset with garageband?

How do I use a bluetooth headset with garageband? I can't get it to work after many tries.

I can pair the headphones with the computer but the sound from GB is distorted and muffled. I can barely hear it. The set works with iTunes, but not with GarageBand.

Loops not showing up at all in Garageband.. but are on computer...

Hey,
My loops are not showing up... however I don't have my CDs with me at Uni. However, I disovered by using Spotlight that the loops are actually on the computer in a folder called "Apple Loops for Garageband". They are in my user library and the garage band preferences are set to "share loops with this user only" or whatever the option is called - suggesting that it is correct for this folder to be in the User libray and not the main library.
However I don't even have grayed out samples - they just are not there at all.
I tried dragging one or two from the folder to Garageband manually and they copied over fine and are now in the sample library... however it won't let me copy them over all in one go for some reason...??
I have a lot of samples so don't want to do them one by one... so before I resort to that - any advice...?? Whats going on?
Thanks in advance.

hey, yea i've been having the same problem, just bought this new imac, and none of the audio loops are working (they all show up gray). i actully spent the time, clicking and draging each one individually, but guess what? not all the loops are there!!! i'm sooo cofused, if anyone has figured this out, that would be extremely helpful thanks!!!!

Why does GarageBand audio work for guest user but not my account?

Hello, I have a 15-inch MacBook Pro (2.2 GHz Intel Core i7, 4GB 1333 MHz DDR3) from late 2011 that I bought brand new in 2012. I'm running OS X Mavericks 10.9.4 and my MacBook has 500 GB of storage.
About a month or two ago I tried to download the new GarageBand (10.0.2) but I had trouble completing the loops download. The download would stop halfway through because of a network error. So last week I decided to try to download it again, and I was able to do so after reading some discussions about the issue. I successfully completed the download in safety mode and then I restarted my MacBook. At this point I was able to open GarageBand 10.0.2 and create a new project. Unfortunately, there was no audio coming through the output and sound bar for the various audio components in GarageBand. I had no audio when previewing the loops or playing it back in an audio track. I didn't really test anything else out because I figured I needed to fix this problem first. I have read many discussion boards about audio problems with GarageBand. I have already made sure everything is set properly in the GarageBand preferences and the audio preferences in system preferences. I've tried restarting GarageBand and restarting the computer.
This evening I found a discussion from the username icewhatice and they seemed to have had my exact problem. I'm not sure that I found the answer on this discussion though. For reference, this is what icewhatice posted: "I have no audio coming from Garageband 10.0.2. Downloaded it on Saturday and have spent the last two days trying to figure out why it won't work. I'm using a macbook pro with an Alesis QX49. GB registers keyboard when I plug it in but no sound whatsoever, not even from the onscreen keyboard. It seems to read the keyboard as if I play a C chord, it appears in the display. I've done all the obvious stuff like check preferences, restart, I've deleted and downloaded new GB several times and always with same result. Actually, it took me about four attempts to download it in the first place as I was getting an internet connection error message right at the end of the download, and I see others have had that problem. Managed to solve that by downloading in safe mode but now the no sound thing is driving me absolutely crazy because I can't play my keyboard!!!!! Also, worth noting that there is no audio level being read anywhere, I believe in the new version this appears in the volume control at the top. I've also looked into it potentially being a problem with my keyboard and it possibly needing an update but can't find any difinitive answer for that anywhere. I've stopped looking into that because the on screen keyboard doesn't even work - if that worked then I would know at least GB works and it's something to do with the keyboard. So, I am at a complete loss. If anyone has any ideas about why this is happening or what I could do to solve then I would be very grateful."
After reading this, I realized that I am unable to create new tracks, and I realized that I have the same problems with old projects saved from the last version of GarageBand I had. I have not tried to download GarageBand again since it did not work for icewhatice. léonie ended this post by saying: "Something is certainly wrong - either the current project, some settings in your user account, or the downloaded GarageBand version. Or incompatible software may be interfering. If a new project does not work, try to test by logging into a different user account, for example the "Guest User" account. Create a new project using this account. Does GarageBand work better from this account? Then we will need to troubleshoot your preferences."
I have tried this and started a new GarageBand project in the "Guest User" account. GarageBand was working fine in the "Guest User" account and all of the audio was working properly. Does anyone know how I should troubleshoot my preferences?

If an application is working in a different account, but not in your regular account,try t find out, what you configured differently in your own account, for example start-up items or preference panes you are using, applications and other helper tools, that are only installed for your regular account. As a first guess, remove GarageBands preference files from the user library in your Home folder.
But you will have to reset all settings you did in the GarageBand preferences dialog. And GarageBand will not remember the last project. You'll have to find the file manually.
Remove these files from your User Library to a folder on your Desktop:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.garageband10/
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.garageband.plist
~/Library/Caches/garageband
Quit GarageBand, then remove the files to a folder on the Desktop and restart the computer, before trying again to open GarageBand.
You user library may still be hidden, as is the default in Mavericks: To open your hidden user library:
Select the "Home" folder icon (the little house) in the Finder's sidebar and press the key combination ⌘J to open the "view options".
Enable "Show Library Folder".
Then open the Home folder and open the Library folder inside and navigate to the Preferences, Caches, or Containers folder. Remove these folders completely - don't leave anything inside: ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.garageband10/,
~/Library/Caches/garageband .

*Logic Pro 9.1.1, Garageband, Waveburner, Abelton suddenly crashed and won't open at all !

I recently was working on a project in Logic Pro 9.1.1, saved the project and put my macbook to sleep. When i return, my mac wont turn on for the first 10-15 minutes sitting on the blank screen with the rotating circle. When it finally loads through and comes on I find that my Logic Pro software along with Waveburner, Garageband, Abelton, basically any DAW that i try to run will not open. The application icon just bounces and then shows the crash report, i also tried simply opening the project file. I have tried re-downloading the Logic Pro software with no luck. I desperately need this software to be working again, i will post the crash report along with this hoping someone could help out.
Thanks, Alex

Alex,
If you have to ask about backups then I would have to assume you have not been making any.. be it Clones of your System Drive using Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper! (My personal favorite) that you manually save to an external HD or you haven't setup and been using Time Machine that is built into OS X that automatically backs up everything to an ext HD. I highly recommend you use one of those methods from now on... and in fact i highly recommend you use both methods.. as the Clone method allows you to quickly wipe out everything and reinstall from the clone image to take you back to where you were before any issue arrived. I make one every time before I upgrade anything major.. and I also make one every week...
So, as i said, did you try checking and repairing your System Disk using OS X's Disk Utility? That is the only possible other option you have at this time as you have no backups..
Other than that.. You will probably need to start again from scratch.... formatting the HD.. installing OS X and then your Apps etc...
Make sure you move/copy all personal data files such as Photos, docs, Logic Pro Projects and so on.....to an external HD before you reformat and start again... You can then move those personal data files back manually after you have reinstalled everything...

Why can't I open a GarageBand recording on my iPhone in GarageBand on Mac OSX?

I recorded an acoustic performance of my vocal quart last night on an iPhone running GarageBand 2.0.1 on iOS 7.1.2. But I can't open it in GarageBand 11 (6.0.5) on Mac OSX 10.9.5. What gives?
Not only will it not open (and the software on my Mac platform is way more recent than on my iPhone, so you'd think it would be upward compatible), but when I try to open this iOS-created file on the Mac, it asks me where I want to save it ... it's already saved, I'm just trying to open it.
I've looked at the reviews for the latest GarageBand, which it tells me I need to upgrade to, and they are terrible! Many report that they wish they hadn't upgraded and that they could get back to an older version of GarageBand on their Mac.
Does this mean I'm stuck and the two GarageBand platforms are not compatible and that I won't be able to open this file? ... other thanes an mp3 in iTunes ...
Thanks for any insights you can give me.

it sounds like it's opening fine, but you're just not letting it finish.
it's asking you to save a version of the song for the mac; if it saved over the original file, it could no longer be opened on the iOS device, if you needed to alter something later
