  • In this video I explain how to use the free default Reaper plugins to load drum samples, and how you can arrange them to create drum beats and grooves.

    Super clear tutorial for those of us just starting up with Reaper. I've felt a bit overwhelmed by the UI and had to this point felt simple/basic tasks were non-intuitive. This video got me on the right track, and I appreciate your help! Thanks

    Just a friendly advice: If you create a track and hold "Control"in the keyboard, in the right side of the daw (where you get the tracks once you record) you can create a blank track with the lenght that you want. Then if you double-click you get the "Piano roll", and there you can put your notes easy and fast. Cheers!
    P.S: Sorry for my broken english, it's not my mother language , haha.

    Thank you very much. Way back in the day I used to use a program that was super easy to drag samples into the track but that program has gone to hell.
    I like reaper but the one thing I miss is analog drum samples and an easy way to make drum lines. This is the best way for me so far.

    • @toma4474
      @toma4474 4 роки тому

      Patricio Fernandez I know it’s late reply but still there’s way. If you have your own samples you can make a soundfont out of it and assign a sample to a particular note. You can use Polyphone to create sound fonts and Sforzando plugin to play them in reaper. Both are free.

    • @Riclusive
      @Riclusive 6 років тому +9

      Yeah, when you're adding samples in Reaper's sampler drag more sounds and assign each one to a key, it shows that option within the sampler. After you assign each drum sample to a key you can play it via MIDI controller or the sequencer that Reaper has built in as well.

    Instead of turning down the "Volume" control in ReaSamplomatic VSTi, I recommend turning the Min Volume all the way down to "inf". This way, you can control the loudness of the sample with the Velocity in the MIDI Editor.
    I also recommend watching THIS video - ua-cam.com/video/RJD7aNzSmO8/v-deo.html, which shows how do do this all in one track.
