D3CK reaper tools

installation

to install and use in reaper simply clone this repo to reaper's Scripts directory eg Scripts/D3CK

notice! some path assumptions are made!

Theses scripts assume to reside in the path mentioned above and will also write to reaper's Effects\D3CK direcory to ensure supporting 'jsfx' are installed

to run, choose one of the scripts from the app directory this is a very early alpha version, so expect things not to break

DrumRack / ZoneMan (apps/drumRack.lua)

a drum rack for reaper. this script offers a convenient UI for managing instrument tracks and trigger them with with midi notes

features

• layer samples and synth, create drum kits from all sorts of sound sources

• drag and drop audio files to pads creates layers of reasamplomatic5000 instances

• drag and drop track templates creates layers from those (using the first track as sound source)

• create pads/layer from existing racks tracks, etc.

• flip and/or copy pads by drag and drop

• pads can 'choke' each other

• multiple playback modes: pads can have fixed length (time) regular press and release or infintie length / one shot mode

• solo/mute/edit/delete layers/instruments

• save/load kits (handled as regular track templates)

• managed fx bus and fx per pad

• context actions (right click on pads and layers)

• fx/pad/layer locking (not very useful yet)

• split mode, use key-ranges instead of a pad grid

• follow pad selection by midi input

• no internal state is kept, e.g. the drum rack is completely driven by the track structure underneath and a "hub" plugin distributing the midi data to the pads and layers, which themselves are just plain tracks.

roadmap

• pad/layer/fx presets
• flip through kits and pads
• sample slicing workflow
• partial loading of kits (e.g. spare locked pads/settings, also for slicing flow)
• better split mode
• more pads/zones (128)
• sequencer integration
• reapack integration
