    Hello everyone,

    I installed version 3.3.6 of SD3 and it works.
    It has its own library (SL-SuperiorDrummer3_SDX).

    Everything works! Amazing sounds etc...

    Next step, I wanted to also add two more libraries that I had with SD2.

    The libraries are:
    1. The Metal Foundry
    2. Music City USA

    What I did to acheive this, was to take the SL-MetalFoundry and SL-MusicCity from their respective mounted CDs (The Metal Foundry has 5 CDs and the Music City USA had 3 CDs) and copy them all one by one to a folder I created, which also contains the SD3 library (SL-SuperiorDrummer3_SDX) which already works.


    So all libraries are in the same folder:
    C:\Superior Drummer Libraries
    SD.PNG

    However, when I try to open the Music City USA, or the The Metal Foundry libraries, I get this message:



    The SD3 I have, and the two mentioned libraries, are not originals.
    So I don't have serial numbers to update the libraries the normal way.

    Do you know how and if I can solve this?

    Thank you very much for your time!
    P.S. I'm an experienced tech/web developer, so it won't take me much to understand you, if you try to help me :) SO please do! heheh <3

    Whenever you download something, you should always make sure that it has been cracked by one of the following teams: R2R, V.R. Otherwise, you won't be able to use the corresponding sound set. Even if you buy something directly from Toontrack, you always have to register it with the corresponding registration key. All Toontrack sound libraries are protected, and a team like R2R or V.R. etc. cracks and then releases them. The title bar always has an R2R V.R extension, or like here, for example, from the sister site: Toontrack Superior 2 The Metal Foundry SDX Expansion Disk 1-5-AudioP2P (Team AudioP2P | 07-16-2009 | 30.49 GB).

    Often, you burn something to a DVD but overlook the keygen. When you install it later, you must have the corresponding keygen, either saved somewhere else, or downloaded it again. Check your Tootrack keygens to see if this product is listed.

    See if you can find any updates!

    I would get both updates for both Libraries from the sister site:
    Toontrack Music City USA SDX v1.5.0 (1.03GB)
    Toontrack SDX Metal Foundry Update WiN v1.5.0 (844MB)

    Thank you very much for your quick replies.
    Excuse me but what is the sister site?
    Can I have a link?
    If all I have to do is download the libraries from the sister site, it sounds very helpful and easy.

    Again thank you both (@samsum & @Radio ) for your quick replies!
    I'll try to download and step by step figure this out from the sister site.

    Hello again!

    Just to let you know, I downloaded these two updates:
    Toontrack Music City USA SDX v1.5.0 (1.03GB)
    Toontrack SDX Metal Foundry Update WiN v1.5.0 (844MB)


    I copied their SL-MetalFoundry and SL-MusicCity folders respectively inside the folder I had the previous versions aka: C:\Superior Drummer Libraries. I was prompted to replace files with the same name, which I did, and they both worked!

    So, thank you very much for your help! :)
