Thanks, helpful video....where do you get that audio loops program please...

[GaryJDavies]

@stevoe1000 only REAPER and Addictive drums demo in this video. Google 'em!

When it comes to making a whole drum pattern for a song, can you only use the beats they provide or can you custom make beats?

[GaryJDavies]

Yes you can make custom beats - you can either record live using a MIDI keyboard etc, draw your own into a MIDI editor, or modify one of the existing patterns once you have dragged it in to your preject. Totally flexible in that way!

[BERNER91]

I guess i'm buying this sucker then lol. Checkout my songs by the way.

[GaryJDavies]

Get the demo first! Its fully functional except for a very limited drum set.

[stevoe1000]

Can I ask again... when using the sync ..does it make any of the beats inside AD line up with any others of different tempos .. just by clicking the sync and then dragging it into reaper...thanks...

thx for this, a good primer

[stevoe1000]

@GaryJDavies thanks, yeah i got the demo thanks...

[IcoverRadiohead]

@GaryJDavies You said the demo is fully functional?! Isn't it just for a limited time? Please respond! :)

@Pasghetti3 Yes he has...he actually sounds like david beckham before he mixed & sampled his voice ...but changed his voice via reaper ...

You can even sample famous voices ....i sampled elvis voice when i am on the phone ..and hitlers when mom askes me to clean my room . I can swear at her in german ....and she dont understand .

Is this wrong ? ...its wrong isnt it ? ...ok , i'll stop doing it.

[Pasghetti3]

your voice is very soothing. could fall asleep to that. You got any compressor and EQ on it?

[sparda2005]

i have a quick question, about reaper in general... if i open a VST, and then close the screen for it, how do i open it again? LOL, i'm new to Reaper, but I'm liking the look of it!

OK, so when I do what you did, Reaper doesn't play the midi drum sounds. It just plays the midi file, but there is no sound. It's not reading the midi like it would, say, a wav file. I must be missing something really basic. Do I need to tweak some setting in Reaper? I don't have any problem with it reading the AD plugin.
