This is the best tutorial I have found yet. Watched so many videos that are just confusing and things are left out that have left me stuck and unable to program drums in reaper. Thank you so much. Throwing you a like and a sub!
Instead of writing in every one of those snare hits in the blast beat part, you can just switch the note value in the grid again and paint in the snare like you did the bass drum. Opt/alt+Cmmd for anyone in the comments wondering. Great video, tons of good stuff in here. Keep it evil 🤙
@@lilithwhite8822 alternatively, you can paint all 1/8s and change the grid snapping to 1/16th after then slide the snares over by a line. Lots of great ways to accomplish good stuff!
Your initial tips for setting up the interface helps treeeeeeeeemendously. Really helped me over a hump and is helping me steer away from exclusively using premade stuff. Thanks man!
This is 100% what I was hoping to do for anyone! Once you get reaper set up to not be annoying for drum programming, it really opens you up to just getting creative with drum parts and not be hindered by the interface. If guitar pro did drums like this, I might actually use it more.
If you ever wanted to open mouth kiss a stranger , doors open. I’ve been trying to find a free way to programs drums for over a month that works with my older system, and you showed me everything I needed in one video. Thank you so much 🤘🏻
Thanks brotha! You made the workflow way easier. I was so used to fl studios piano roll and step sequencer before using reaper. Your tips helped me tons.
Hey! I use a ton of different things depending on my mood. I *THINK* that one was done with an Axe FX III emulation of a JCM 800 with a DOD808 boosting it and a Marshall 1960A IR, but it might have been with a plugin. Also, believe it or not, that was recorded with a cheap Jackson JS32T Rhoads with the stock Jackson pickups in it.
@CoreyAllgood i'm using the Archetype Petrucci plug in but I have difficulties fiding a nice balanced tone. Crunchy but not too much in the treble...like the one in your video.
@@SimonDuc So two things. 1. I'm not a huge tone expert. I usually find a sound and just stick with it. 2. I had Pettrucci's free trial and really only used it for like a day because it wasn't really doing much different from the rest of NDSP's plugins. That said, start with the source. I generally make sure that I have my fader balance at -18db with peaks (hardest picking) at -6dB before the plugin, so just DI level. Then I'd set up something in the plugin with less treble, but then see if the pedalboard has an EQ in the amp's FX loop and try a 2dB boost in some of the treble. I usually get some sparkly crunch somewhere around 8k or 10k. Just keep experimenting. You'll find it.
@ honestly, they’ve all got quirks to them when it comes to figuring it out. I tend to stay away from anything that uses Kontakt, but beyond that, it really depends on what sound you like the best. I prefer sd3, but a lot of people seem to love the snare in the panda library I used in this video.
For the record, if you’re literally following this, the “another closed hi-hat” is a pedal hi-hat and I’m still a dolt.

Hi. I would like to know what you use for your guitar tone. I like it very much.

@@CoreyAllgood another little question: what is the most easy to use for a noob when it comes to programming drums ? Superior drummer ? Krimh ?

Those riffs sound like Avatar.. great drum tips btw
Ive heard Slapped together Throw Away riffs,,,, bro this is not that ... That was melodic, moving, compelling and interesting to the ear ~
@@darkkrenaissance42 hey, thanks!
*plays some of the nastiest riffs i've heard*
"aight simple stuff"
@@abyss5229 🤣 I tend to doubt my material a lot, so thank you.
