[Rwp] Newbie to Reaper on the Mac with a drum track question

[theoreomonster at reaperaccess.com]

its pretty much the same way, You need a drum software instrument and  you play it out on the keyboard. Reaper may have some tools to make editing/etc a little easier  depending on how you work but at the end of the day its pretty much similar DAW to DAW. I personally use audio drum loops since i am not a midi person, don’t have a keyboard, and don’t have time to learn how to play drums. With Audio loops I can audition loops till hear something i like, and use standard audio editing operations, (select, copy, split, cut, paste) to edit it into what i want if its not exact. It worked for me with great results so just never ended up learning how to program drums.
