Absolutely! You can use VST instruments and effects in LMMS, including drum samplers like Addictive Drums and EZDrummer. Here's how to get them working:
1. Install the VST Plugin:
Download and install the VST plugin you want to use (Addictive Drums or EZDrummer) according to the manufacturer's instructions. These programs typically install their VST files in a standard location on your computer.
2. Enable VST Support in LMMS (Linux Only):
If you're using LMMS on Linux, you might need to enable VST support during installation. You can find instructions on the LMMS website or forum specific to your Linux distribution. Windows and Mac users can usually skip this step.
3. Load the VST Plugin in LMMS:
Open LMMS.
Go to "Insert" in the top menu bar and choose "VST instrument."
In the pop-up window, navigate to the folder where your VST plugins are installed (usually "Program Files" or "VST" on Windows).
Find the VST plugin you want to use (e.g., "Addictive Drums.dll") and click on it.
LMMS will load the VST plugin.
4. Using the VST Plugin:
Once loaded, the VST plugin will typically open its own interface window. This is where you can access the drum sounds, edit kits, and adjust settings specific to the plugin.
In the LMMS song editor, you can program drum beats by clicking on the desired notes in the piano roll. The VST plugin will then trigger the corresponding drum sounds based on your programming.
