Often does not mesh the end of one pattern with the beginning of another, different, pattern smoothly and this is just another area where you will need to perform manual edits. It does not always select the best leading note for a chord and It can also process imported midi sequences. EZKeys is easy to operate and edit for chord content. At times you might prefer a tool like Band In A Box for a sparser and more varied piano track so like most things, you can never EZKeys is not a great soloistīut seems to excel at creating a background for a rhythm track. Midi files for basic chord comping and advanced styles but you will generally want to edit these in at least a few places to fit the timing and style of your recording. I like this product a lot! However you will need to get adept at making a lot of manual midi edits to the supplied midi files to accomplish a finished recording. I did the same for the drum part at the end of the song.Ĭlick here to hear just the rhythm track with Drums, Bass Guitar and Piano! I copied a TOONTRACK EZKeys pattern to the end of the song, opened it up in the Reaper midi editor, erasedĪll the existing notes and added a single long low C note for the ending. Another example is the extended lowĬ note at the end of the song, Steel Boogie, linked to below.
Type songs, I make extensive use of the ROCK and POP TOONTRACK midi fills and patterns as they are not limited to a certain genre. TOONTRACK patterns to do things like end on beat 5 or beat seven, remove extra bass drum beats that make the drums pattern too busy, add cymbal accents, do simpleįills (many of the TOONTRACK fills are too busy and use extensive tom tom hits for my taste), triplet sounds, truncate and or join parts of patterns. Then using the Reaper midi editor, the key and drums parts can be easily edited to add or delete drum hits or keys. I drag the drum and keyboard parts one pattern at a time from the TOONTRACK VST to Reaper and assemble them adjacent to each Parts that I use when recording all my solo tracks can easily be modified in Reaper later if you want to add drum accents or make any changes to fit the nature of the You can see from the screen shots below that I have EZDrummer set up as multiple tracks in Reaper and EZKeys set up as one stereo track. I only use them inside of Reaper and they show up as VST's just like a VST effect. For an overview of my recordingĮZDrummer and EZKeys can be run stand alone but I don't use them that way. I then port the tracks back to Reaper for final editing and rendering to a wav or MP3 file. I then port a stereo wav file of these tracks to my Zoom R24 where I record the bass guitar, rhythm guitarĪnd lead instrument solo tracks. Keyboard parts for my songs right on my computer.
Reaper is my DAW and I use it with EZDrummer (another TOONTRACK product) and EZKeys to create the drum and My intent here is show how I used it with Reaper to You can get a great overview ofĮZKeys from the TOONTRACK web site, YouTube or a variety of other music review web sites.
