1. You use EZXs in S2. That's ok but using them in S2 will not add
any samples that aren't already there in the EZX. Americana, Classic
and Vintage Rock were all made for EZdrummer 1 and essentially
have only two hits per velocity layer, except for the hardest one.
Without SemiSeq you will get that "tick tock". EZX2:s and SDX:s are different.
They are made for the S2-engine and typically have more sounds
per velocity layer.

Actually, MHE goes to work when there is substantial energy ringing in the
drum already. This means that it has much more effects on cymbals then
on heads. A snare drum is usually well muted, in comparison to a cymbal,
and so MHE does very little except for hits that come close together, like for
a roll.

I will make a note of that.
