Beta Monkey are really good for throwing together beats. They're organized so the fills go with the beats. you can build up pretty convincing drum tracks by really making the fills fit the moment. Usually this is best to do (fills that is) after the bass and/or guitar has been figured out. That way the fills can really build drama on the various parts. I just started with Reaper, most of my experience is with Acid Pro 6. I find audio loops are easier to work with but thats really just because I'm a MIDIOT.
