Audio to MIDI Drum trigger JS Plugin (Rapid-fire Reaper Tutorials Ep65)
Hey folks! In this episode I'll show a useful JS plugin to trigger MIDI samples using Audio. Perfect for adding sampled layers to drums and percussion automatically! This free JS Plugin works the same way as software like Steven Slate Trigger.
I'll also show a lesser-known application of such a plugin: Triggering MIDI Drums using a practice pad, or slapping on your thighs, or even a guitar DI!
If you don't know about Reapack, watch this video by @LetsTalkAboutReaper for more info on that. Reapack is where you can download these JS plugins for free (donations appreciated):

Also big thanks to Myk from Let's talk about Reaper for contributing drum recordings!
