This ‘Records’ the beat back into EZDrummer. So, press the record arm in EZDrummer and then press play in Reaper. I can’t drag a midi loop from Reaper into the Beat Buddy Manager, so I need to get the loop back into EZDrummer 2 (as you can drag loops from EZDrummer). For example, EZDrummer has a heap of hi-hat sounds outside of the General MIDI note range, I just select the row (right click) and move them to the Beat Buddy Hi-Hat (ctrl + up/down). I then move all the drums that are not on named notes to a named version. I then drag the midi part from EZDrummer into Reaper and open it with the the MIDI editor (which has the drum names from the link above). Never figured this out either, moving on. File sizes were around 14K, but basically empty. Create a loop in FL, export each track as a wav file. My midi files never went over 60 bytes, which is useless. (As you say, you could create your own kit - but that seems like a lot of hassle and you’re limited to 100MB, so probably best just to stick with the existing kits for now) Create a loop in FL, export as midi, use said midi file to control EZDrummer VST in Reaper. This will show what drums are available in your midi score editor. Then you need to get a map of what drums are available, you can get that here.

First create a track and add EZDrummer 2. 32-bit bridging is not supported and does not seem to work well with. I use Reaper and EZ Drummer 2, but the process should be similar. The only things that could cause you problems with having both flavours installed is if you are pointing the 64-bit Reaper to both the 32-bit version and 64-bit version of EZdrummer 2 or pointing the 64-bit version of Reaper to the 32-bit version of the EZdrummer plug-in.
