{HOW TO "INSTALL" THIS PACKAGE WITH USING .CMD FILES SymLink Installer?}
Although below is a long description, the essence is simple:
A) PRESERVATION, delete some folders, possibly remaining from previous installations;
B) run the symlink command file - SymLink Installer.cmd;
C) specify in DAW the path of scanning VST2 plug-ins (C: \ Program Files (x86) \ VstPlugins),
D) run DAW, scan for new plug-ins, run them and (if required) register.
The stages of the "installation" are indicated in curly brackets.
Explanations (read only if necessary) are highlighted in spoilers (or triple square brackets in the txt file attached to the distribution).

[WHAT IS SIMLINK (SYMBOLIC LINK, SymLink)?]
[[[
Simlink (symbolic link) is a special kind of link to a folder or file,
which is perceived by reading their programs as a real folder or file,
although it is only a reference, the real source of which is located elsewhere on the disk.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbol_link
ATTENTION!
Removing a symlink does not delete the folder that this symlink refers to.
Removing something when entering the symlink folder, results in a real deletion of the deleted folder.
]]]
[CAN YOU APPLY WITHOUT INSTALLING WITH .CMD FILES SymLink Installer?]
[[[
Yes. You do not need to use the SymLink Installer CMD files,
you can simply copy the files according to the names of the folders inside the folder .. \ C \,
and also pay attention to the presence or absence of * .reg registry files, keygen ... etc. inside the package.
]]]
{0} {Preinstalling the required system software}
Install Microsoft Visual C ++ Redistributable packages,
required for the operation of many plug-ins (if not installed or partially installed)
[addon] Microsoft Visual C ++ 2005-2008-2010-2012-2013-2017 Redistributable Package x86 & x64
forum.oszone.net/thread-145766.html
{1} {Correct Unarchive Package}
Open the .exe file of the package using the 7zip archiver shell, and unpack the contents
on any drive for permanent storage, so that you do not then delete it *, for example, in the folder:
D: \ Toontrack DRM
- not deep in the nesting of folders, briefly by name, from letters, numbers, spaces, underscores, dots,
without any other non-alphabetic characters, without Cyrillic.
* To ensure the functioning of .CMD files SymLink Installer,
MOVE, REMOVE, RENAME ANYTHING IN THE CONTENT OF THE DISTRIBUTION IS UNACCEPTABLE.
{2} {Pre-cleaning of possible "remains" of early versions of the package}
{2.1} WARNING! Save the operating hours (presets, etc.) of the data to be deleted.
{2.2} Uninstall (or delete if there is no uninstaller) previous versions of the one being installed.
{2.3} Check the absence of folders in the places where the symlinks will be created (IF FOLDERS ARE LEFT, SYMBOLICS WILL NOT BE CREATED)
and delete the remaining (if left) after uninstalling the folder according to the list {FOLDERS OF FINAL LAYING OF PACKAGE CONTENT}.
{FOLDERS OF FINAL PLACEMENT OF THE PACKAGE CONTENT}
[[[
The package contents are located in the following folders ("C \" means the system drive is "C: \").
To successfully create symlinks, before running .CMD files on SymLink Installer, you need to make sure that these folders are not present.
NOTE. For a quick answer to the question "Do I need to delete some folders before running SymLink Installer?"
you can run Existing Folders.cmd - if you do not open any folders during its operation, then they do not exist and you do not need to delete them.
After running SymLink Installer, the Existing Folders.cmd command file allows you to quickly open all folders of the installed content.
Next is the list of folders required for the package (some of them may not be mandatory, and some are critical for work).
The "-" characters (before the paths below) indicate which folders are not needed for x86 systems.
C \ Program Files \ Toontrack \ EZX
- C \ Program Files \ Toontrack \ EZDrummer
- C \ Program Files \ Toontrack \ Superior \ Superior Drummer 2.0
C \ Program Files (x86) \ Toontrack \ EZDrummer
C \ Program Files (x86) \ Toontrack \ Superior \ Superior Drummer 2.0
- C \ Program Files \ VstPlugins \ Toontrack DRM
C \ Program Files (x86) \ VstPlugins \ Toontrack DRM
C \ ProgramData \ Toontrack \ EZdrummer
C \ ProgramData \ Toontrack \ Superior2
C \ Users \ (Current User Name) \ AppData \ Roaming \ Toontrack \ EZdrummer
C \ Users \ (Current User Name) \ AppData \ Roaming \ Toontrack \ Superior2
C \ Users \ Current User Name \ Documents \ Toontrack \ EZdrummer
C \ Users \ (Current User Name) \ Documents \ Toontrack \ Superior2
- C \ Program Files \ Common Files \ Avid \ Audio \ Plug-Ins \ Toontrack DRM
C \ Program Files (x86) \ Common Files \ Avid \ Audio \ Plug-Ins \ Toontrack DRM
C \ Program Files (x86) \ Common Files \ DigiDesign \ DAE \ Plug-Ins \ Toontrack DRM
ATTENTION! Typically, the use of Cyrillic alphabet when registering and in the name of the User User Name (Current User Name) leads to the impossibility of registration and normal operation of the software.
ATTENTION! If the system drive name differs from "C: \", you should pay attention to the attached registry files (if any), and fix the name of the system disk in them to the required one.

{3} {Actually "installation"}
For instant installation based on symlinks,
run as a manager (through the context menu) a batch file * SymLink Installer.cmd,
and if necessary, change ** the path to VST2 in .CMD files.
* [WHAT IS DESIGNATION OF .CMD FILES?]
[[[
NOTE. CMD files are files that automate operations with the file system and Windows administration.
REFERENCE. ab57.ru/cmd.html
In this particular case, .CMD files provide the creation of symlinks or the removal of symlinks or real folders.
SymLink Installer.cmd - creates symbolic links to folders and files from the .. \ C \ folder.
[[[
SymLink Installer.cmd consists of blocks:
- obtaining administrative authority (for creating symlinks in system folders);
- determine the bit depth of Windows (x86 or x64);
- creating symlinks for x64 Windows;
- creating symlinks for x86 Windows.
]]]
SymLink DeInstaller.cmd - removes symbolic links to folders from .. \ C \ or !!! usual folders !!!.
[[[
SymLink DeInstaller.cmd consists of blocks:
- obtain administrative privileges (to remove symlinks or folders in system folders);
- determine the bit depth of Windows (x86 or x64);
- Removing symlinks or real folders for x64 Windows;
- Removing symlinks or real folders for x86 Windows.
]]]
ATTENTION! If you run SymLink * .cmd ("infinite launch") startup problems, open the batch files and delete the fragment starting with the line:
:: BatchGotAdmin BEGIN sites.google.com/site/eneerge/home/BatchGotAdmin | ss64.com/nt/rem.html | ss64.com/nt/cacls.html
and on the line:
:: BatchGotAdmin END
inclusive. This fragment is responsible for "Run as administrator".
When you delete it, you need to run batch files through the context menu item (right-click) on the file, selecting "Run as administrator".
Utilities:
Existing Folders.cmd - checks the existence of folders in the list from {FOLDERS OF FINAL PACKAGE MAINTENANCE} and opens them as separate windows in case they exist.
FoldersList.cmd - creates a list of folders inside the folder .. \ C \.
]]]
** [HOW TO CHANGE THE WAYS TO VST2 IN .CMD FILES SymLink Installer?]
[[[
The change in paths described below in .CMD files for the VST2 plugin format can be avoided,
if in the DAW settings specify an additional scan path for the VST2 plug-ins: C: \ Program Files (x86) \ VstPlugins,
or place a symlink to the C: \ Program Files (x86) \ VstPlugins folder inside the folder where you normally host the remaining VST2,
for example, all the VST2 plugins you have are located in the C: \ Program Files \ Steinberg \ VstPlugins folder,
then inside this folder is a symbolic link to the folder C: \ Program Files (x86) \ VstPlugins.
If the specified location (for one reason or another) does not work, you can edit the way to create symlinks in CMD files.
For example, in the SymLink Installer.cmd file, you can replace lines (using any text editor):
cmd / c mkdir "% PROGRAMFILES% \ VstPlugins"
cmd / c mklink / j "% PROGRAMFILES% \ VstPlugins \ Toontrack DRM" "% ~ dp0C \ Program Files \ VstPlugins \ Toontrack DRM"
cmd / c mkdir "% PROGRAMFILES (x86)% \ VstPlugins"
cmd / c mklink / j "% PROGRAMFILES (x86)% \ VstPlugins \ Toontrack DRM" "% ~ dp0C \ Program Files (x86) \ VstPlugins \ Toontrack DRM"
for example, on the lines:
cmd / c mkdir "% PROGRAMFILES% \ Steinberg \ VstPlugins"
cmd / c MKLINK / j "% PROGRAMFILES% \ Steinberg \ VstPlugins \ Toontrack DRM" "% ~ dp0C \ Program Files (x86) \ VstPlugins \ Toontrack DRM"
cmd / c mkdir "% PROGRAMFILES (x86)% \ Steinberg \ VstPlugins"
cmd / c MKLINK / j "% PROGRAMFILES (x86)% \ Steinberg \ VstPlugins \ Toontrack DRM" "% ~ dp0C \ Program Files (x86) \ VstPlugins \ Toontrack DRM"
or for example, to strings (using absolute paths instead of relative ones (% PROGRAMFILES (x86)% or "% PROGRAMFILES%)):
cmd / c mkdir "C: \ Program Files \ Steinberg \ VstPlugins"
cmd / c MKLINK / j "C: \ Program Files \ Steinberg \ VstPlugins \ Toontrack DRM" "% ~ dp0C \ Program Files (x86) \ VstPlugins \ Toontrack DRM"
cmd / c mkdir "C: \ Program Files (x86) \ Steinberg \ VstPlugins"
cmd / c MKLINK / j "C: \ Program Files (x86) \ Steinberg \ VstPlugins \ Toontrack DRM" "% ~ dp0C \ Program Files (x86) \ VstPlugins \ Toontrack DRM"
Or other, required in specific circumstances.
Similar changes (if necessary) can be made in the file SymLink DeInstaller.cmd,
in which the command RMDIR - deletes the folder on the specified path.
Similar changes (if necessary) can be made in other .CMD files.
[How does the MKLINK command create a symlink?]
[[[
MKLINK Help: ab57.ru/cmdlist/mklink.html
To create a symlink, the folder in which it is created must be created in advance.
Example:
cmd / c mkdir "C: \ Program Files \ Steinberg \ VstPlugins"
This command creates a real folder "C: \ Program Files \ Steinberg \ VstPlugins", preparing the possibility of creating a symlink inside it.
Example of a command for creating a symlink:
cmd / c MKLINK / j "C: \ Program Files \ Steinberg \ VstPlugins \ MyFolder" "% ~ dp0C \ Program Files (x86) \ VstPlugins \ MyFolder"
The command creates a symlink named MyFolder inside the folder "C: \ Program Files \ Steinberg \ VstPlugins",
while inside the symlink there is a link to the source folder - "% ~ dp0C \ Program Files (x86) \ VstPlugins \ MyFolder".
% ~ dp0 - instead of this code, when executing a .cmd file, the full path to the folder from which the .cmd file is run is substituted.
cmd / c - code for calling the command processor executing command files.
/ j - the key for creating a symlink to a folder, not a file.
ATTENTION!
Removing a symlink does not delete the folder that this symlink refers to.
Removing something when entering the symlink folder, results in a real deletion of the deleted folder.

[HOW TO UNLOCK THE CREATION OF SIMLINKS FOR PROTools FILES?]
[[[
To unlock the creation of symlinks for ProTools files, remove the commenting operator ("REM" characters) at the beginning of the following lines of the SymLink Installer.cmd file:
REM cmd / c mkdir "% COMMONPROGRAMFILES% \ Avid \ Audio \ Plug-Ins"
REM cmd / c mklink / j "% COMMONPROGRAMFILES% \ Avid \ Audio \ Plug-Ins \ Toontrack DRM" "% ~ dp0C \ Program Files \ Common Files \ Avid \ Audio \ Plug-Ins \ Toontrack DRM"
REM cmd / c mkdir "% COMMONPROGRAMFILES (x86)% \ Avid \ Audio \ Plug-Ins"
REM cmd / c mklink / j "% COMMONPROGRAMFILES (x86)% \ Avid \ Audio \ Plug-Ins \ Toontrack DRM" "% ~ dp0C \ Program Files (x86) \ Common Files \ Avid \ Audio \ Plug-Ins \ Toontrack DRM "
REM cmd / c mkdir "% COMMONPROGRAMFILES (x86)% \ DigiDesign \ DAE \ Plug-Ins"
REM cmd / c mklink / j "% COMMONPROGRAMFILES (x86)% \ DigiDesign \ DAE \ Plug-Ins \ Toontrack DRM" "% ~ dp0C \ Program Files (x86) \ Common Files \ DigiDesign \ DAE \ Plug-Ins \ Toontrack DRM "
]]]
{4} {Final stage}
Installation completed. Next, you need to open DAW,
specify in the DAW settings an additional path for scanning the VST plug-ins: C: \ Program Files (x86) \ VstPlugins
and perform updating scanning of plug-ins.

{HOW TO REGISTER?}
[[[
- Is it necessary to register this software?
Registration of the version from r4e (which is active in the distribution content, in folders .. \ C \) is not required.
***
Registration is required when using versions from R2R.
To switch from one version to another, you can copy to the folder (agreeing with the replacement) .. \ C \
- either:
.. \ R2R KEYGEN \ EZdrummer 2.1.4 R2R \ C \
- either:
.. \ EZdrummer 2.1.3 Superior 2.4.4 R2R \ C \
Return:
.. \ R2R KEYGEN \ EZdrummer 2.1.3 Superior 2.4.4 R2R \ C \
The r4e variant is more preferable, it does not require KEYGEN and has full patching, unlike the partial patch in the R2R version.
***
Changes in the EZdrummer 2.1.4 version compared to EZdrummer 2.1.3 are not of significant significance, as practice has shown.
Toontrack has updated EZdrummer to v2.1.4.
[[[
Bug fixes in version 2.1.4:
- The internal AU name has been changed back from "EZdrummer 2" to "EZdrummer", which it was in 2.1.1 and earlier, to restore the file compatibility in some hosts.
- In Drumkit from Hell, if a sound from another expansion was loaded on an instrument, clicking on that instrument could lead to a crash in some cases.
- Clicking the tempo button under the song in Toontrack solo could lead to a crash.
- If the User MIDI folder could not be accessed or created, the plug-in crashed when instantiated.
- Dragging across articulation lists in Edit Play Style did not preview any sound.
- Dragging from the Browser.
- The red translucent block that marks the current recording sometimes becomes too long when a loop is reached, and it no longer overlaps itself in a loop.
- The following is now disabled while recording: moving the playhead or loop area, Undo / Redo, song track context menus, loop toggling and a few more things.
- Up / down arrow keys in the Browser should work in more hosts on Mac now.
]]]
***
How is this software registered in R2R?
- With the help of keygens:
.. \ R2R KEYGEN \ EZdrummer 2.1.4 R2R \ Toontrack.EZdrummer.2.v2.1.4.Update.Incl.Patched.and.Keygen-R2R \ Toontrack_KeyGen.exe
In accordance with the instruction:
.. \ R2R KEYGEN \ EZdrummer 2.1.4 R2R \ Toontrack.EZdrummer.2.v2.1.4.Update.Incl.Patched.and.Keygen-R2R \ R2R.txt
***
What keys in the registry are responsible for the interaction of plug-ins and libraries?
- This can be clarified by examining the following registry file:
64bit Windows EZdrummer2 Superior2.reg
[[[
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
; The key that defines the path to the x64 version of the plug-in library
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ SOFTWARE \ Toontrack \ Superior \ EZDrummer]
"HomePath" = "C: \\ Program Files \\ Toontrack \\ EZX"
; The key that defines the path to the x86 version of the plug-in
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ SOFTWARE \ Wow6432Node \ Toontrack \ Superior \ EZDrummer]
"HomePath" = "C: \\ Program Files \\ Toontrack \\ EZX"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Wow6432Node \ Toontrack \ EZdrummer2]
"PlugPath" = "C: \\ Program Files (x86) \\ Toontrack \\ EZDrummer"
"PlugPath64" = "C: \\ Program Files \\ Toontrack \\ EZDrummer"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Wow6432Node \ Toontrack \ Superior \ Superior2]
"HomePath" = "C: \\ Program Files \\ Toontrack \\ Superior \\ Superior Drummer 2.0"
"PlugPath" = "C: \\ Program Files (x86) \\ Toontrack \\ Superior \\ Superior Drummer 2.0"
"PlugPath64" = "C: \\ Program Files \\ Toontrack \\ Superior \\ Superior Drummer 2.0"

{What is the purpose of the package folders?}
[[[
The library sample storage folder, the database database backup and the midi-pattern database:
C: \ Program Files \ Toontrack \ EZX
Folders STANDALONE versions:
C: \ Program Files \ Toontrack \ EZDrummer
C: \ Program Files \ Toontrack \ Superior \ Superior Drummer 2.0
C: \ Program Files (x86) \ Toontrack \ EZDrummer
C: \ Program Files (x86) \ Toontrack \ Superior \ Superior Drummer 2.0
Folders for placing working databases of the sample index:
C: \ ProgramData \ Toontrack \ EZdrummer
C: \ ProgramData \ Toontrack \ Superior2
Among other things, the folder in which the database of midi-patterns is generated (the content can be deleted for resetting):
C: \ Users \ (Current User Name) \ AppData \ Roaming \ Toontrack \ EZdrummer
Folders of user data, presets, developments, etc .:
C: \ Users \ (Current User Name) \ AppData \ Roaming \ Toontrack \ Superior2
C: \ Users \ (Current User Name) \ Documents \ Toontrack \ EZdrummer
C: \ Users \ (Current User Name) \ Documents \ Toontrack \ Superior2
Folders VST2 plugins (this is not necessarily the case):
C: \ Program Files \ VstPlugins \ Toontrack DRM
C: \ Program Files (x86) \ VstPlugins \ Toontrack DRM
Folders ProTools plugins:

C: \ Program Files (x86) \ Common Files \ DigiDesign \ DAE \ Plug-Ins \ Toontrack DRM
]]]
{How to connect new libraries?}
[[[
What are libraries?
A small set of small skin files, configurations and a large file are the data of the samples.
They are arranged the same.
Also there is a folder of midi-patterns.
In particular, there are two folders in the images (same type), for example Drumkit From Hell:
1
Drumkit From Hell image content:
.. \ Drumkit From Hell.iso \ Install \ PC \ EZHOME \ EZX_dfh \
Copied to the folder C: \ Program Files \ Toontrack \ EZX
2
Drumkit From Hell image content:
.. \ Drumkit From Hell.iso \ Install \ PC \ EZHOME \ Midi \ 05 @ EZX_DRUMKIT_FROM_HELL \
Copied to the folder C: \ Program Files \ Toontrack \ EZX \ Midi
Similarly - with other libraries.
Available in C: \ Program Files \ Toontrack \ EZX should not be overwritten (GraphicsV2, Configs), only the missing part is copied.
