    Same. For a long time, I drums were a completely different world for me. In my band, I was the primary songwriter. I played bass and did lead vocals, but I wrote everything except the solos (the lead guitarist wrote that himself) and the drummer (who wrote her own drum parts.) For anything that I wanted, it wasn't a problem, I could normalyl describe it to her. But if I couldn't, I'd sit behind her kit and tried to figure it out while we looked at each other, me thinking "I know nothing about drums!" and her looking at me like "Why do you know nothing about drums?"

    Drums are often the hardest instrument in a metal band, and metal drummers (good ones) have the strongest work ethic. Meshuggah wouldn't exist without Thomas Haake. The attack of the instrument is super unforgiving compared to other instruments. Practicing drum rudiments for hours alone is not fun, it's more like being in the military or Olympic athlete, than anything remotely "fun" or musical (Ex drummer, current guitarist here)

There are wwwwaaaaaaaaay more guitarists/bassists/vocalists than there are drummers.

    ​@@ChernobylAudio666 It can be done in an endless multitude of ways. I've yet to find the bottom of that particular rabbit-hole. It's great for legato runs, chunky stuff, sweeps, etc. . Adding extra rhythmic inflexions can spice up pretty much anything. One of the most useful song-writing tools I've found is the use of off-kilter, Konnakol-like rhythms that sum up to multiples of 4 when placed in a sequence (a-la Meshuggah). Frankly, learning Konnakol (the timing system used in Indian music) is the most valuable musical skill I've ever acquired. If you've never heard what Konnakol can sound like in the context of Western music, you should check out Freak Kitchen (Mattias Eklundh). It's a treat for the ears. At worst, you'll never look at music the same way again lol.

    There's an easy way to draw multiple notes fast in Reaper. Set the grid to the note division that you want (I always have a floating toolbar with all of the note divisions clickable). Then, set a key on your keyboard to draw notes under the mouse cursor (I forget the action, just search for it). Ding ding, draw notes by dragging your mouse and holding down the key (I use "z" in the midi editor window) as needed. Your welcome.

So there's really nothing to "beat", it's great that they even exist. Real drums with a bit of sampling are always better for metal, of course.

    We are gonna do it, we might as well do it right. Gonna try another Reaper function, use ReaTune to send notes to midi,based off of the bass, ya know single note. Yeah I know that the bass will likely need to be redone, especially if the song is going to be proggy. My thinking is actual drum hits per note. It does require thinking more compositionally beyond what the riffs are and likely a bit of a rhythm challenge, why you ask? 4 independent limbs.

    Hey Glen, I wonder what you think the best format to listen to music is? Like do you prefer vinyl CDs or do you prefer KZread etc. I notice more dimensions to Tool songs on certain formats. On cassette tapes, there is just a right and a left but on Amazon music, it sounds like there is a front right front left Ext. There is a drum roll in the song “Third Eye” that the sound spirals around you. On some format this drum roll is just panned left then right. Tool does a lot of cool things with there music. You have to have the correct format along with the correct speaker setup to hear it. Like Dolby 5.1. Or 7.1

I need to get a minimum a little ekit. Id have an acoustic if I hadn't had to worry about sound or eviction since 07. Which was the last time I touched a kit. Sadly. I can feel the rust in my soul. But guitar has given me the softer side of music more emotional. So that is what I've been doing on my channel. Almost 3 years playing guitar. All ambient and slow bluesy.

    Anyone who loves music loves a well recorded and well played drum kit. But imagine a world where you have to depend entirely on access to a drummer in order to create music at all. Especially in a demanding genre like extreme metal, where drummers are high in demand and skill is not as common as we'd like it to be. Or, sometimes your drummer moves to Eastern Europe and never comes back. The current possibilities to make music on your own and use it to find a drummer later have never been more promising. And this course is how you learn to not suck at it.

    Is there actually a way to send specific notes to a different VSTi? Cubase drum maps work like that - you can have a "main" VSTi and then send Hihat notes to a different VSTi, allowing you to use multiple libs and VSTi with a single drum map that way.

    First you’re selling drum samples and now you’re doing tutorials on programming drums? Who are you and what did you do to Glenn Fricker? Seriously though, as someone who lives in a one bedroom apartment with no way to record actual drums, I appreciate tutorials like this. Would I like to be able to record actual drums? Sure. I think a lot of people who watch the show are in a similar boat to me, where we’d like use real drums, but we just don’t have the option to do so. Thank you for understanding, Glenn.

I currently program drums, as I don't own an acoustic kit, but I do own a very old and kinda shitty E Kit. What would you recommend as far as recording/programming drums? Is there a benefit to recording them on my crap ass ekit? Thanks in advance!

    It's all about workflow and efficiency. If you can get your ekit setup to work with your computer, programs, etc, and it works consistently all the time and you can play the beats at a decent accuracy easily and quickly, the ekit would probably be the way to go. If you find yourself always struggling to get the ekit to work, or it doesn't seem to gel well with the program, etc., then doing it the way I show in Reaper might be the better way to go :)

    Watch this course, even if you a drummer who kows how to program drums properly. It'll teach some neat tricks about Reaper. But anyway, if you play only one instrument, learn the others, too. It will make you a better musician. Understanding how other instruments work and what their role will make you better song writer. You'll learn to do better arrangements. And great arrangement can save A LOT of time in the mixing. Not to mention more interesting music.
