How to install MIDI Files into EZdrummer3 with a linked folder

Posted by Groove Monkee on June 06, 2022

There are several ways to install MIDI files into EZdrummer 3. In a previous blog post, I discussed 2 methods in detail.

This method is the easiest and fastest but you cannot move the files after you've installed them. If you do, you'll have to remove the linked folder and install it again.

Instructions

1. Store the folder you want to install in a permanent location on your computer

2. Open EZdrummer 3

3. Select 'User MIDI and Linked Folders' from the 'Options' menu

4. Click 'Add Linked Folder'

5. Select the folder you want to install and click 'open'

Important: make sure the following option is selected:

Grooves > Options > User MIDI and Linked Folders > Show MIDI files from Subfolders

The video below demonstrates the process of adding a linked folder.

Warning: As stated above, you cannot move the linked folder. If you do, the files will no longer be available and you'll have to install the folder again.

EZdrummer 3 Compatibility

All Groove Monkee MIDI packs are compatible with all versions of Toontrack EZdrummer.

Finding Our Toontrack Files

To find our Toontrack files, open your download and click on the 'Other MIDI Mappings' folder. There's a folder inside that ends with 'Toontrack'. Install the folder inside of the "Toontrack" folder.

For our Mega Pack, install the folder named 'Mega Pack Toontrack' inside the 'Other MIDI Mappings' folder. You will have to extract it first.
