What is this problem and how to fix it? Superior Drummer 3.3.7
This happens when I run a preset from the Superior Drummer 3 CORE library.

 

Find the path on your system where that library is stored. Make certain there is content there

Run SD3 standalone and open "settings" >> "libraries and paths"

Find the entry in the list for the "superior drummer 3" library. What is the path SD3 is reporting for that lib? Is it pointing correctly to the path determined above?

 

Problem: Missing " SP-Superior_Drummer_3 "

The Superior Drummer Complete Full Version is 256 GB big? How big is your library? Please take a look.

Superior Drummer Libraries --> C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Toontrack\Superior Drummer

 

No, I only have PART 1. During the preset launch, the program does not find triggers for the drums. Is it really necessary to install the rest of the libraries for their sake?

 

Have you installed the Factory Library? You Need at least:

Minimal:
Sounds17.obw, Sounds18.obw, Sounds19.obw, Sounds20.obw, Sounds21.obw, Sounds22.obw, Sounds23.obw (8.83GB)

• The default location is C:\ProgramData\Toontrack\Superior Drummer 3

You will need parts 1 & 5 (roughly 85 gig) for most of the kit pieces & bleeds. Enough to get going.
The full install is roughly 220GB with all updates applied on my system.

My core lib is ~133gb.
I didn't see the need to install all the surround stuff. You do not need to install all parts for it to work correctly, but you will need at least Part-1+Part-2 or 5. I have parts 1, 2, and 5 installed which is the full stereo rig - all works fine - classified as "partial install". If you install parts 3 and 4 it gives you all the surround stuff if you need it, but it pushes the footprint up by 100+gb or so...

If you dont need surround install what's below and you should be fine. Remember to apply all the core lib updates afterward or you might have issues being as your engine is at v3.3.7.

Part 1: “Basic Sound Library” (All instruments, all tools and all articulations in close mics, OH Dyn and Amb Ribbon. Bleed in Snare Bottom (Kick and toms)
Part 2: “Room Mics 1” (The rest of the Room mics: OH Cond, Amb Near, Amb Mid).
Part 5: “Extra Bleed” (The rest of the bleed in the close mics).

Thank you guys so much for your help. I think I solved this problem with LIBRARY UPDATE 1.2.0. All triggers have appeared and presets are loaded with the full set of sounds.
