    I tried to load all the Toontrack EZDrummer libraries (from the sister site) in EZDrummer 3. My result is that the following libraries are not working and EZDrummer v3.0.6 (or Superior Drummer 3.3.6):
    • Americana 1.0.0
    • Claustrophobic 1.5.3 (works in SD3)
    • Drumkit from Hell 1.5.4 (works in SD3)
    • Electronic 1.5.2 (works in SD3)
    • Funkmaster Clyde 1.5.4 (works in SD3)
    • Funkmaster Jabo 1.5.4 (works in SD3)
    • Indie Folk 1.0.0
    • Indie Folk 4Mic 1.0.0
    • Jazz 1.5.1 (works in SD3)
    • Latin Percussion (works in SD3)
    • Metal Machine 1.5.0
    • Metal! 1.5.4 (works in SD3)
    • Metalheads 1.0.0
    • Nashville 1.5.0
    • Number 1 Hits 1.5.1 (works in SD3)
    • Pop! 1.5.1 (works in SD3)
    • Rock Solid 1.5.0
    • Rock! 1.5.3 (works in SD3)
    • The Classic 1.5.1 (works in SD3)
    • The Classic 4Mic 1.5.1 (works in SD3)
    • Twisted Kit 1.5.1 (works in SD3)
    • Vintage Rock 1.5.3 (works in SD3)
    So it seems all the expansions for EZDrummer 1 do not work in version ED 3. Furthermore if the version of these libraries is greater than 1.5.0 they work in Superior Drummer 3.

    Is there any way to make them work or do these need to be updated and we have to wait for the updates

    The ones in your list that I have installed (from memory: Indie Folk, Jazz, and Nashville, possibly Americana) all work in EZD3. Give me 30 minutes and I can check them in SD3.

    Edit: Indie folk is 1.5, Nashville is 1.5.3, Americana is 1.5.2.

    Jazz is 1.5.1, same as yours

    Yep, all working in in EZD3 and also in SD3.
    However, all of the v1.0.0 EZX libraries I have installed are also working in both.

    Not sure if this is helpful, but in my SD3 Help>About tab, I have:

    For anyone else searching for EZX updates, search "Toontrack Plugins Pack" on sister site. Because "EZDrummer" or "EZX" isn't in the title, it won't show up in searches with those terms.

    Your statement about older (pre version 3.0 EZD and SD) EZX's needing to be updated is correct and the updates for those older versions may/not be around the scene. Some of the lib's that are marked "version 1.0.0" that are working in v3.x of the plugins are most likely lib's that were created after EZD/SD 3.x was released - therefore they do not necessarily need to be updated for them to work with either v3.x plugin. To maintain the greatest compatibility with all 3.x plugins (as well the older pre version 3 updated plugins) it is highly recommended to update your v3 SD and EZD version to the latest the scene has to offer.

    If that is the "plugin pack" I am thinking of it is somewhat dated (circa 2014). This pre-dates the release of version 3.0 of SD and EZD. Most all the lib's in that pack would require updates in order to work with the either of the version 3 drum plugins... They would most likely work OK with earlier versions of SD or EZD as they are... Mainly this is all due to the fact that both the version 3 plugins (EZD/SD) underwent format and graphics upgrades that were not backward compatible with the older versions...

    I and OP are both using the latest versions of EZD and SD.
    The pack on sister site is indeed the older pack, mainly 1.5.0 updates.
    IIRC I obtained individual updates (1.5.1 - 1.5.3 depending on the library) from Audionews and/or a 49GB pack on Russian site.

    In this thread, @Talula said he was going to upload latest updates to sister site, though I'm unsure if that happened.

    IIRC requesting warez is still not allowed here. You can talk about this all day long, no problem, but please restrict such questions to PM.

    Thx for clarification. All the libraries not working for me are in fact pre version 2.0 of EZDrummer I think.

    Many of these EZX_* do not work. EZX2 and EZX3 all working.

    Yeah, I'm about ready to pull my sleeves up on a new MBP Max 3, and I have all my old libraries from EZDrummer 2 or whatnot on my 5,1 cheesegrater, I haven't gone down the hole yet on it, but I'm not even sure I can drag them over or they will work with new v3, and authorizations and whatnot... so will be following this thread...

    So I was able to get all of them running in EZD3 and SD3 except Indie Folk. I did not find an update on this anywhere...

    EZDrummer 4, promises more real drummer, action.
    will show up late, hungover and will grumble whenever you change tempo's

    likely not backwardly compatible with anything except EZBassplayer 4...

    ps KowBell v3 module can no longer be disabled in EZDrummer4,

    I just tested, and I've got all of those working in my SD3 and EZD3 installs, including Indie Folk. Not sure where I gathered everything from, but all that you seek must be out there since it's all working for me.
