How do I record bass cover in reaper? (UX1 & Windows 7)

I own a POD Studio UX1. I managed to get the software working and all that but I have hit a problem. The problem being that I have never recorded my bass direct in before.
I downloaded reaper (x64) and need some help and advice to get every thing up and working. I also want to know how you record covers using reaper as well. I no next to nothing about recording software or how to set it up. I currently have no audio monitors at this time either (for the analog outs)![]()
First make sure you have the latest drivers for your UX1
Here's a few UX1 set up videos

In a nutshell, to get started in Reaper select the UX1 ASIO as your device.
Insert 2 tracks and arm them to record.
On one track select sends 1/2, on the other track select sends 3/4.
In this fashion you will capture both the dry and wet signal. You can add the POD Farm plug-in to the dry signal post processing.
There may be a bit of a learning curve but you can start here

And Reaper also has a pretty good forum.
Although you can record Bass with the UX1, you may want to look into the Bass Expansion pack.
Ok. I watched the tutorial. My drivers are all updated. Now what I want to know is how do I add a song in reaper and play along to it. I am doing youtube cover videos after all and I have never used direct in recording before.
easiest way is to drag and drop an mp3 onto an empty audio track
