Would anyone be willing to lay out their experiences with DAWs? Preferably free ones? I tried waveform, but I’m thinking I’m going to use Cakewalk. A lot of people say Reaper, but the UI seems lackluster. What do yo think?

    What DAW are you using? Most should be able to accomplish what you’re after without any plugins. Is there a sampler? Like a virtual instrument that lets you play different audio files? You could trigger them via midi on the piano roll (timeline).

    Edit: the only VST for drums I find useful is XO but that’s just to manage a large sample library. You don’t need that now.
