Looking for methods to create drums

Hi chaot4, nice to see you here. Thanks for Drumgizmo, it rocks !

Matbe this is worth looking at to get drum kit samples into reaper:

DrumGizmo works! 

I finally got DrumGizmo working. First I had to get the KXStudio repositories installed through Synaptic, which Linux Mint already has installed. Then I installed DrumGizmo from KXStudio, and Reaper could see it. Then I downloaded the DRSkit from the DrumGizmo (which took more than a day, it's 2.6 gigs and they must not have much bandwidth). I got this installed where DrumGizmo could see it (the UI is not all that intuitive). Then I loaded a loop and it works! Pretty much all the necessary info is in this thread. It just took me a long while to process it all. At several points I was about to ask about something here, but in formulating my question I found a clue and figured it out. That has pretty much been what it is like moving over to Linux. It's been an adventure. Thanks!

Glad it worked! I will be releasing some drum kits soon. I have to sort through the samples again though, testing each "round robin" layer to see if any sound too inconsistent (then I'm removing those). These kits have 15 velocity layers and up to 4 round robins, so it's a bit much. Pruning some of them won't matter much and it'll save on file size. I've already found some "outlier" round robin layers which were a bit too different sounding for my liking, so I'm going ahead with that plan. After they're all tested and I've edited the XML files where I need to, then I can finish making the final "kit" XML files. I'd ultimately prefer for the next version of DrumGizmo to be released before I release these kits though, since currently DrumGizmo doesn't round robin properly. (When an updated version of DrumGizmo is released, I'd have to edit a bunch of my XML files so DrumGizmo will properly do round robin with the kits, then re-upload those XML files with instructions on what to replace and where.)

In the latest RS5K manager builds it is possible to change font size.
