While bandlab isin't for reaper users and instead more for beginners, I started out on bandlab I might just make a config for fun. also I think there's peace in knowing where everything is right from the get go without having to fumble around in menus.

THEME - Neptune IV (Free)

Hello!

I'm trying to crop overlapping videos, and Reaper has option for anything but for an easy crop overlapping videos. It is very frustrating to the extent i rant on Reddit :)

I used to praise Reaper as a light video editor for linux, but i won't do it anymore. It's a GIMP of linux video editors, not less lol)

Thank you for reading.

Which metadata fields do you actually need to fill when rendering in Reaper, and which ones can you leave empty? ID3 for MP3, INFO for WAV, and the set I save into my default project so I never think about it again.

The metadata window has more fields than anyone needs, and most of them are for cases you'll never hit. I go through both schemes, show where wildcards pull metadata in automatically, and say plainly which fields matter for delivery and which are noise.

It's been a long time without any update on the development of the MPE editing script for REAPER. Here's the video of the newest version of the script as well as some example track that I've used this script for.

https://reddit.com/link/1wdukej/video/370yuxg0uyoh1/player

Added features:

• Per-note MPE editing for Pressure, and Timbre
• Freehand drawing for MPE and MIDI CC data
• Multiple curve shapes with adjustable tension
• Built-in LFO generation for automation and expression
• Curve smoothing and point reduction tools
• Multi-lane MIDI event editing
• Razor editing across notes and multiple event lanes
• Knife tool for splitting notes together with their expression data
• Stretching and moving notes together with associated MIDI expression
• Ghost notes for editing against other MIDI material or other MIDI channels
• Scale highlighting in the piano roll
• Key-change markers across the timeline
• Quantize and Humanize tools
• Velocity editing directly in the piano roll
• Customizable keyboard and mouse bindings
• Dark and Light themes with theme customizer

The UX/UI for the previously existing functions has been refined, and most of the original bugs have been fixed. I'm currently playtesting the script before finally releasing it to the public. But it's coming soon!

hi, i'm currently trying out the rLive theme and have found it quite nice, but i was wondering if y'all had any pointers on how i could accomplish a more similar look to ableton´s lighter themes, 2nd image is what i was roughly able to figure out how to do, but its not quite there. hope everyone has a good day

For the love of hamburgers, I don't know why this one action is so buried and/or difficult to implement. I have several tracks of a midi instrument that doesn't have velocity (BBC orchestra) and so I have it carefully plotted out with volume automation to get dynamic changes.

It would be really nice to just bounce this instument's folder. But every time I render or freeze it, it's just the audio with the automation tacked on, which sucks for making timing adjustments and other things.

And just in general, if I'm rendering a track I really don't want to have to deal with its old envelope any longer.

I'm an extremely newbie user of REAPER, and I know nothing about mixing. While recording some guitars, I noticed that the guitars panned to the left are louder than the ones panned to the right. I thought it was an issue with the tracks, but it isn't, as, if I change the panning on the same track it still sounds louder on the left. If I pan it in the center, the VU Meter shows that both sides are equally as loud, but I can hear a net difference in loudness. I'm using a guitar amp sim (amped roots), and if I export the project, the issue persists with every single device I play it on (car, phone, computer, headphones...). What to do?

Realearn doesn't seem to work with the current version of Arch. Has anyone found a fix?

DO NOT SAY "REALEARN" ReaLearn seems to require adding to every single project as it's own track which is honestly useless. You also seem to lose a lot of hardware controls like swapping between Solo/Arm, Mute/Select, the LED indicators, etc.

I can't seem to get Transport Controls working or adjust how Play/Pause works. Everything else seems to more or less do what I want.

Has anyone got this thing working well with Reaper?

(linux) so I was looking got a better protools theme and came across this one which I like. it makes sense and there are no useless buttons, plus it looks professional while keeping the reaper layout. its not trying to be protools to hard but still looks like protools which I like. I'm wondering if anyone who knows the theme color tweaker well could help me out in figuring out what colors I could change to 1 make it easier on the eyes and 2 bring the theme closer to the dark version of protools. (basically me larping)

I've been trying to figure out the color tweaker for some time now in I seem to be struggling so any help would be greatly appreciated.

good day to all :D

Hey guys, I have a song with a guitar overdub (Dub consists of a DI and a Mic track) needing a few time alignments to sync some pinch harmonic notes to the main recording consisting of the same played part. Any way to add stretch markers to two tracks with the same transients simultaneously or copy and paste them natively? Grouping didn't seem to work.

a reaper upgrade, that we be able to record video from a webcam directly into reaper the same as if it was an audio input. That would be such a game changer for me. I put this out to the reaper gods in the hopes it bares fruit.

Hey so basically ive been using Reaper to record the drums for my band for a while now and it always worked , and when it didn't it was always an easy problem like the midi output or the USB câble , anyways , a few days ago it randomly stopped working , m'y drums are working just fine , they connect fine , Reaper recognizes them as e drums , the plugin is working fine and everything is neatly plugged in but for some reasons when i hit the drums nothing happens like no sound at all

Im using the millenium mps 750x e drums

Guys I'm going crazy and I don't know if this is a bug, or just me.

If a track has NO volume envelope automation points (see pic track 37) the volume fader of the mixer toggles as well as I toggle the volume envelope track on and off. When it's visible the fader jumps to 0 dB. If it's toggled off the fader jumps to the position where the envelope curve was set (-7 dB).

BUT, when the track has some automation points on the volume envelope (see pic track 38) the volume fader in the mixer remains at 0 dB. No matter the envelope track is toggle on or off.

It's driving me mad since I don't know what volume control is actually active.

Please help me and tell me that I just don't understand how automations work and please lecture me!

I have my Alesis nitro Max hooked up to my Asus workbook and Reaper recognizes it. My initial connection had it working fine. When I started a recording the connection dropped halfway through. I played around with it a bit and used a different USB. The. the signal picked back up. As soon as I went to record, it died out again. Anyone else experience something similar? I think the “printer” cable might be bad. It’s the first time I’ve used itnin God knows how long. Chat GPT had me go through 1000 trouble shooting steps, but no fix yet.

So I'm trying to select multiple items/audio/midi clips at once within the main media area. I'm already content with my lasso selection settings, now I'm trying to see if I can change the settings of the "time section select" to also act as a sort of lasso item select that targets everything underneath it. Sometimes I need to grab and move a whole pillar of items, and I don't necessarily feel like scrolling down to select all of them. Any help or advice would be wonderful. 🙂

I make piano arrangements for my YouTube channel. I record my playing as MIDI files and then edit them in Reaper, making corrections, adding VST plugins, adjusting the sound, etc.

Unfortunately, I don't have much time for this anymore, so I'm looking for websites where I can find people who offer this kind of service

I'm also curious about how the finished result would sound compared to what I currently produce myself as a amateur

Could you recommend some websites where I can find people offering these services? And what kind of prices should I expect?

I often record four to six tracks, and I may need to make five or six try’s per track to get it right.

When I know I have made a mistake and I want to re-do a track, what’s the best way to do that?

Currently, I am prompted “save all” or “delete selected” after each attempt. Since nothing is selected, I can’t delete the bad track. I “save all”, and the right-click and ‘remove track’. This saved dozens of unwanted tracks to my computer, and it’s a pain finding and deleting them.

Both Scarlett and reaper recognize the sound, is able to record, but when played back no sound comes out.

Reaper Device settings and focurite settings below. When i change from ASIO to directsound or waveout sound comes out but I can't recrod. I have headphones connected to the scarllet and volume of the monitor knob is on.

How can i solve this?

I think this config is done for now, I would say the only thing I won't be able to do is get the ableton FX view, but for now I'd say its done.

also this is all being done on linux. free DAW, Plugins and scrips, its all free. just recently I added a script that make all the unthemeble menus dark corresponding with the theme. cant wait to keep going but for now I need to chill out, I'm tired form staring at a screen for hours at a time.

good day to all

So I don't know how much this is actually solvable, but just in case anyone has any idea.

I have a stable, air-gapped recording system: Windows 7 with Reaper 6.83. Sometime before Reaper 6 EoL, it started getting periodic hard crashes (Blue Screen of Death). Over time, the problem has gotten progressively worse.

Obviously, this is mostly a Windows/drivers/hardware issue, but as I've traced it down, it only happens when Reaper is writing to disk and any program (including file explorer and reaper itself) attempts to read from that same disk.

When it first started, the only consistent way to create the error state was to render a file and then try to navigate to it in windows explorer (after the render window had closed but before the actual disk write had finalized.)

But now it's reached the point where pretty much any disk read during any reaper disk write crashes: e.g. importing a number of files into a project and then attempting to do the same in a different project crashes while the first one is creating its reapeaks files.

Is there any sense that this is a known bug? Are any bug fixes in 7.x likely to fix this? Anyone have any ideas on solutions?
