    Hey guys.
    I have Version 3.1.7 of Superior Drummer 3.
    I'm wanting to install the Orchestral Percussion Expansion and the Death and Darkness kits.
    I have them on my HarDrive. There are no install files. So I'm guessing I just have to add it manually through the Settings/Libraries/Add Library Path. But when I do that I get the error "No sound libraries found in selected Directory".

    Has anyone else been able to install these expansions??

    Any help is appreciated.
    Cheers

    I have death expansion library path as C:\Program Files (x86)\Toontrack\Superior\Superior Drummer 2.0\SL-Death and it works fine. Have you tried that?

    Thanks for the reply mate.....
    How did you install it though??
    Even if I was to copy the library to that same path, and I point SD3 to that path, it will still say that no libraries where found. Do you have an installer for the death expansion??

    There is no installer for the libraries posted. You just copy the folder named SL-Orchestral-I and paste it into the same folder where your other SD3 SDXs are loaded. Do not change the name, it is looking for that particular name. My path is the same as kaza above except it's not Superior Drummer 2. Mine is just Superior Drummer. I keep the SDXs that came out with SD2 separate.

    1- Rename (temporarily) the folder displayed in "Additional Libraries" so that SD3 cannot find it and displays an error message
    2- Click on on the icon on the right of "Additional Libraries" in the Settings/Libraries, paths, go and click on "Locate" Additional Libraries "Folder"
    3- Point to the folder where the MIDI and ZDX of EZdrummer 1/2 are located (example: C: \ Program Files (x86) \ Toontrack \ EZDrummer)
    4- Restart SD3
    If you do not follow step 1, SD3 will still display the error message "No library ... found" even if you specify the correct path

    It worked! I just don't know why it couldn't work before, but this method fixed it. EZX appeared right away after reloading SD3.
