This video shows you step-by-step how to program your very first drum track in Reaper Software. Now if you are not sure how to exactly go about setting up your DAW – and Chris does go into this in his book – I have put together a quick tutorial video above so you can see how I went about it. He really helps to build your confidence. His guide is great for someone like me because Chris has a good clear understanding of how to program drums from the perspective of a non-drummer or a complete newcomer.

Plus nothing like a bit of cross-fertilization of genres and ideas to create something unique to you. So whatever style you are into, you should be able to create your own drum tracks to suit with his help. Chris is a guitarist who found himself in need of creating his own drum tracks to accompany himself, and over the years he has become a complete expert in this area.Īlthough he comes musically from a Death Metal background (nobody’s perfect…) he has experimented with all genres and covers many of them in his book. In the first instance I went right up to the part where he shows you how to set up your DAW (Desktop Audio Workstation or recording software) for drum programming. So how did I do it?

If you are interested, it is available for immediate download as an eBook, or if you prefer to have a hard copy next to you, it is available in paperback too. Chris’s book takes you step-by-step through the process from beginner to advanced. Once you have your first basic track, then you can quickly move on to more complex rhythms and fills having mastered the basics. 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.
