So much in fact that I decided to put together a step-by-step tutorial of exactly how I did it so that you can too. I learned a lot in a short space of time, and really enjoyed the process too. I finally rolled up my sleeves and created my first drum track. Then I came across Chris Nothdurfter, who’s written a complete book on the subject of drum programming, and I decided once and for all the time had come to get over myself and get on with it.

So I have been skirting around the idea of going anywhere beyond the drum loop libraries.

Build confidence in your ability as a musician.

Have a lot of fun learning a new skill and impress your mates with your new-found know-how.

Really get to grips with another feature of your DAW.

Avoid having to re-use stock beats and loops.

Never have to purchase (or steal) drum tracks again.

Create and develop your own unique beats and style.

Well done on choosing MT, its the best drum software out there, enjoy. Some people choose other locations, it's just important that you put the location of the VST in the path, located in 'Prferences>VST'. I've got all my 64-bit VST files in a folder I called 'VST' that I've placed in 'C:/Program Files'. You need to put them in a totally different location. If you're putting the MT Power kit folder in the Reaper plugins foleder, that won't work. it doesn't install anything, just extracts and the 2 folders are moved to reaper. any help ? thanks in advance.Īlso someone said you can run the MT Power Drum Kit 2 plugin in standalone mode, but I cant see any way to run it that way. I tried to make a new folder called mt drum plugins in the plugins folder and put the files in there, added it in reaper scan and tried again, no ied this in reaper on windows 7 and 8.1. once it showed a progress bar for a bit but then it disappeared. when I click to scan it just quickly flashes a window then disappears. I tried to scan for it, or clear cache and scan, don't help.

I extracted it and put the 2 folders(mt-powerdrumkit.dll and ), it says into the 'plugins' folder in reaper and it does not show up there under VST or VSTI or anything. though I got the free MT Power Drum Kit 2 plugin and tried to install in reaper but something not working. Hello all, new to the forums and DAW in general.i got reaper going and am liking it a lot.
