Step 1.1 Download the Virtual Instrument (VSTi)

From this page download the BassMidi VSTi 1.2 zipfile.

A Guide to FX installing and organizing for Reaper. Suggestions for installing and organizing FX. There are many ways to install and organize FX Plugins in Reaper. The ideas discussed here apply only to Windows systems. They may be helpful on a Mac but I don't use a Mac so if you do, you will have to adapt them for yourself. MiniSpillage is a drum machine VST that is fully capable of putting all your tracks through its high-resolution 64-bit DSP processing to ensure every sound and track comes out sounding professional and clean. This is by far one of my favorite free drum plugins for Mac users.

Step 1.2 Unzip that file to your VST plugin directory

Two Common directories for VST plugins:

• C:Program Files (x86)SteinbergVstPlugins
• C:Program Files (x86)Common FilesVST3

If either of these folders exist or if you have admin privileges on your computer you can unzip the contents of the zipfile to one of the above folders. Since I’m working on a computer with no admin rights I had to make a portable install of Reaper in this folder C:REAPER so I navigated to C:REAPERUserPlugins and made a folder called VST.

Step 1.3 Make sure Reaper knows where your VST has been unzipped to

1. In REAPER, press [Ctrl] + P (Windows) / [Cmd] + [,] (Mac) to access Preferences.
2. Go to Plug-ins > VST.
3. Under “VST Plugin Path,” make sure that the path where you placed your plugins is listed (if not, add it)… see the screenshot for how I added C:REAPERUserPluginsVST after the other two default folders.
4. Click on Re-Scan and your instrument should be available within Reaper.

Step 2.1 Time to download a Soundfont to open within the VSTi we just installed

A free GM/GS soundfont has been shared here Reality_GMGS_falcomod.sf2 (version 1.2)
Thanks to Falcosoft for sharing the soundfont on this page

Step 2.3 Unzip the Soundfont to a folder / directory where you will store your soundfonts

You might choose to make a folder called “Soundfonts” in a location where you keep your loops and other audio resources… perhaps within the Reaper folder or another area on your computer where you keep things organised.

Step 3.1 Time to try inserting a Virtual Instrument into Reaper using the VSTi and Soundfont we just downloaded.

Note: If Step 1.3 went smoothly and you Re-Scanned the VST folder Reaper should be able to find the new plugin… If not, try re-scanning or perhaps try restarting Reaper. If that fails you will need to check that the directory to where you extracted the VST files is included in the VST plugin folders that Reaper looks in (as per the screenshot in 1.3). If that fails you might need to ask me for some help 🙂

Display the Virtual MIDI piano (Alt+B)

Hopefully you can now hear the sound of a piano when you make use of the virtual MIDI piano
