REAPER HEADMELT AREA (3 Viewers)

The level meter is too small on the audio window, you have to use the mix window to get levels otherwise the default theme is fine, i couldnt be bothered changing it

options -> layouts -> track panel.

i migrated to 4 at the weekend, better now than halfway through mixing like i did last time. used the 32 bit for osx 10.4.11 although my machine is 64 bit (shouldnt matter really) and it works grand, although ez drummer has died somewhere in the transfer. the changes in 4 are great, if they are changes - i read the manual for about 10 hours yesterday. they are either changes or things i just didnt know.

I still don't think you can record audio by routing it from one track to the other like that.

what about send -> recieves???

 

[Denny Oubidoux]

Yeah, you can do it with the hardware outputs but not the internal reaper send and receives. I asked about it on the reaper forum. I'm not as concerned about this issue as I might appear, my computer isn't very powerful though so there's usually desperate efforts to free up CPU

 

[ann post]

render to stem mono/stereo and mute originals then if you want to save cpu, or at least cut down fx loading.

i'm pretty sure i actually did this a few nights ago, i was messing with a delay and wanted to track it so as some effects are very heavy on the macbook.

i had a send going to a new track.
armed the destination track.
solo the destination track.
press record, and it should bounce down.

pretty sure that was it basically.

look, those guys can fuck away off. i just did it again right now, right this minute.

 

[Denny Oubidoux]

What record input is selected when you rightclick the record button? I just tried there now myself and it didnt work

 

[ann post]

ehm i just had it on input one, default, however thats gonna pick up room ambience, so i think set it to 'record output' and it didnt pick up ambience. i dont know why but it works.

literally all i've done is mouse drag the send from source track to destination track and hit record.

 

[Denny Oubidoux]

Record output - Ann, you're a genius!

 

[ann post]

I do believe you'll find I said that about 3 days ago

I've been tracking this issue closely and this is the first time a successful resolution has been put forward
