#REAPER
Ooh, almost ready to #Render the SSD drums programming (That I've spent months polishing)(along with everything else) down to individual tracks in #Reaper.
Then it's time to bring everything back into one audio only project and start mixing my solo track no.2! I can't wait to hear it finished and ready!
I can't praise Reaper enough, very powerful with the capacity to go as deep as you like, or deeper still as it's #OpenSource and it's very affordable, therefore accessable. Could it be the people's DAW? They seam to be cool ethically so we'll see.
As a newbie to DAWs its not unfathomably difficult to get what you want, especially with the help of the very helpful and extremely useful YouTube videos by #ReaperMania who has saved me a lot of stress.
Re the months of drum programming, yes I am a brutal perfectionist with myself when it comes to music, but actually all the AI talk of late has led me to embrace off the grid deeper than I was and and letting go of the small and not so small imperfections of being a human being creating something.
I'll be getting an electronic drum kit that I'll run through SSD drums before the years out so I'll be able to play it all in live from track #3 onwards, well, once I've brushed the dust and cobwebs off my sticks!
Playing it in will save me a lot of time and it'll be more fun, though I do love playing around with grooves, so yes, no doubt there will be lots of editing but if done playfully, it throws up lots of interesting, different approaches and I'm all in for that.
Best part of yesterday’s master class:
Guest speaker: “…and if you’re not using #Reaper, you really should be…”
Me (to students): “And what have I been telling all of you for the last three weeks?”
I think we’re going to see a lot more Reaper and a lot less Logic sessions in the future…
Hmm. It seems that I accidentally left #Reaper recording for three days, and can't remember what I was even aiming to capture in the first place.
Closure (recorded, mixed and mastered in #Reaper) #bandcamp #musicproduction https://davidkirkham.bandcamp.com/track/closure
I really wish freezing tracks in #reaper would not take for ever. It took 40 minutes to freeze a 5 hour long mic track with goyo on it a few days ago. and my machine is a beast. and yes I do have render settings set to 2048 what ever that is in prefs.
I wonder if some #reaper experts can help me out here a bit. Trying to figure out the best Elastique Pro settings to use to raise the pitch of the guitar by 30 cents with no artifacts. Also, I assume that the changes are non-destructive?
Thx for any help!
Superglue is an SWS action for Reaper for "NONDESTRUCTIVE/REVERSIBLE GLUE
POOLED AUDIO ITEMS and more..."
It's like a mix between grouped items and glue.
A must have (free!) for anyone doing #sounddesign, #podcasts , #musicproduction in #Reaper.
Yep. this will take a while. Complete: 19% Elapsed: 9:34 Remaining: 40:11 (5.4x realtime) wow! #Reaper
Yipe. I'm freezing a 4 hour mic track with goio on it. It will probably take a half yhour to do and my poor system is not pleased right now. I still want this plug though, I can't remember when the orders take place for said plug. #Reaper

32bit float recording is great. Except when I load the track into #reaper and it looks like a flat line because I unknowingly bumped the mic 15min in. Sometime a limiter works better. #fieldrecording #mixpre6

And he's mudded up😅 What a mess to handle all the monster mud but it's an actual cool result 😎🎃
Next steps after the mud has dried, electrical wiring for the lantern, spray paint the "face" black and add an extra coating of transparent spray paint for extra water-resistants 😁
I love how this turned out 🤩🎃 Only the monster mud is missing. After that it's ready for the front yard.
Started to work on this today, now it's time for a cold drink 😎🧊

… habe bisher nur #Audacity, #AdobeAudition und #Reaper genutzt. 'Cakewalk by Bandlab' ist nicht gerade unterkomplex, aber ein Wochenede reicht zur Einarbeitung - und für das ganze Geraffel, bis auch wirklich alle Eingangssignale (Amp, Audio Interface, MIDI-Controller, …) dort ankommen, wo sie sollen.
Quick Take: Death’s Door
You're a Reaper, a crow searching for souls to power the whole soul-taking operation in his souls-like with a sense of humor.

3. Well, that just means that when the #CIA's MQ-9 #Reaper finally puts an #AGM-114 into some seemingly random car in Mali, then the Russian MoD won't have too much to say about it.
Ok, let's opine together ...
Prigozhin owns 4 private jets => M-SAAN , VP-CSP (Linburg) , M-VITO , Embraer Legacy 600 M-ABEC
In the explosion 2 Embraer 600 were involved of which 1 has crashed.
I don't advocate alive or dead, I deal only with known facts. Here is an analysis based on the facts leading to the plane crash. I don't know whether he is alive or dead. We need a dead body or DNA proof.
Remember Prigozhin admitted election interference in our 2016 election to help criminal defendant Donald.
Wagner Group hacked Clinton's emails and used bots to help Trump's campaign
Alive or dead, tbd.
Dieses Tutorial zeigt dir, wie du ganz einfach mit Reaper deine ersten Gehversuche machst und das Programm dazu bringst, tatsächlich Klänge auszugeben.
Zuerst musst du dir Reaper von der Website herunterladen. Du findest Reaper unten bei den Downloads auf https://reaper.fm/
Installation und Download
Auf dem Mac kannst du REAPER auch über Brew installieren, wenn du magst. Unter Arch-Linux findest Du REAPER im AUR und sogar Windows unterstützt eine Installation über Scoop, aber der normale Download über die Website funktioniert tadellos.
Nach der Installation verlangt REAPER, dass du deine Audiogeräte festlegst.
Auswahl des Audiogerätes auf MacOS
Unter MacOS kannst Du theoretisch das Standard-Device eingestellt lassen, außer du besitzt ein weiteres Audiointerface, das nicht das Standard-Gerät ist.
Unter Linux solltest Du das JACK-Gerät wählen. Die Installation von Jack ist hier beschrieben.
Unter Windows solltest Du, wenn möglich, einen ASIO-Treiber für deine Soundkarte oder dein Audiointerface installieren. Falls es keinen ASIO-Treiber gibt, geht auch ASIO4ALL, der allerdings nicht ganz an die Performance von nativen Treibern ran reicht. Du kannst auch den WASAPI-Treiber ausprobieren. DirectX und WaveOut kannst du benutzen, wenn du nicht vorhast, in Echtzeit, über ein MIDI-Gerät, Noten einzuspielen.
Midi-Instrument einfügen
Klicke Rechts auf den leeren Bereich neben der Timeline. Klicke irgendwo mit dem rechten Mausknopf, dann öffnet sich ein Menü. In diesem Fall wollen wir ein virtuelles Instrument einfügen. Da Vital kostenlos heruntergeladen und genutzt werden kann und sowohl für Linux, Mac und Windows erhältlich ist, habe ich mich für Vital entschieden. Lade Vital herunter, installiere es mit den Standard-Einstellungen, starte dann REAPER neu. Anschließend mache den Rechtsklick und wähle Vital aus.
Vital selbst hat viele Presets. Die interessieren uns jetzt gerade noch nicht, wir machen einfach was mit dem Standard-Sound. Wir fügen nun endlich MIDI-Noten ein.
Noten einfügenInsert new midi item
Klicke oben einfach im Menü auf „Insert“ und wähle dann „New MIDI Item“ aus. Anschließend erscheint in dem Track eine hellgraue Kiste, die du doppelt anklicken kannst.
Pianoroll
Links in der sogenannten Pianoroll findest du eine Klavier-Tastatur. Wenn du mit der Maus auf diese Tasten klickst, kannst du die Töne hören. Im rechten Bereich findest du ein Gitter. In diesem kannst du per Mausklick einfach Noten reinmalen. (Ich habe eine Notenlänge von 1/8 als Standard-Länge für Noten definiert, wie du unten im Screenshot sehen kannst). Füge einfach ein paar Noten ein. Du kannst die Noten auch verschieben und sogar 2 Noten übereinander legen, um Akkorde zu spielen. Wenn dir anhören willst, wie deine 4 Takte klingen, drücke einfach „LEERTASTE“ oder auf den kleinen PLAY-Button unten links
Du siehst in diesem Screenshot auch noch unten so „Leisten“. Diese Leisten zeigen dir, wie stark die Taste gedrückt wurde. Da du die Noten nicht mit einer Klaviertastatur mit Anschlagdynamik eingespielt hast, müsstest du, um ein echtes Klavier zu simulieren, die Stärke der Anschläge regulieren.
Dieser Block, den du nun eingefügt hast, nennt sich TAKE. Du kannst die Pianoroll schließen und landest nun wieder im Arranger. Mit den Takes kannst du nun jede Menge Quatsch machen. Du kannst sie beliebig verschieben oder Kopieren und Einfügen. Wenn du das tust, kannst du den eingefügten Take auch verändern.
Wie du hier vielleicht siehst, spielt REAPER jetzt 1 Takt lang die Melodie und im 2. Takt ist die letzte Note ein wenig anders gespielt.
Arbeiten mit Samples
Ich brauche an dieser Stelle noch eine Kick-Drum. Ich lade mir deshalb bei Freesound irgendeine Kickdrum herunter und muss nichts anderes tun, als diese Kickdrum einfach in Reaper reinzuziehen. Anschließend dupliziere ich die Kick einfach bei jedem Beat neu rein.
Arbeiten mit Effekten
Du siehst dieses kleine grüne FX-Zeichen auf dem Track wo „VITAL“ läuft? Hier läuft quasi ein VST-Plugin schon als Effekt. In dem Track mit der Kickdrum ist noch kein Effekt, nur das Kickdrum-Sample. Hier wollen wir nun einen Effekt einfügen. Wir klicken also auf „FX“ und wählen dann einfach einen EQ aus.
Im Grunde kannst du nun am Equalizer herumspielen, bis die Kickdrum so klingt, wie du sie gerne hättest. Du kannst du viele Effekte hinzufügen, wie du möchtest. Die Abarbeitungsreihenfolge pro Track ist – logisch – von oben nach unten.
Fazit
Das ist das einfachste Tutorial, was ich dir zu REAPER geben kann. Diese hier genannten Schritte solltest du in 15 Minuten komplett erlernt haben. Tatsächlich braucht man auch gar nicht wirklich viel mehr Schritte, um die ersten Songideen zu erstellen. Natürlich gibt’s später noch die Möglichkeit, Tracks zu verschachteln, Effekte über Busse zu verschieben, Automationskurven zu benutzen und so weiter. Aber das brauchen wir für den Moment noch gar nicht.
Viel Spaß!

#reaper audio editing trick
I frequently botch a sentence, clap to mark the spot, and rerecord it. When editing out the repeats, finding the start of the botched sentence was a problem. But turning on colorization of the waveform makes it easy. First word of bad sentence is same shape and color as first word of good one - instant recognition that a black waveform didn’t give.
I’d point to the preference if I could find it again. Maze of twisty checkboxes, all alike.
It's #Majestic #Manderville time, part three!! The last three #relic weapons for my third most beloved role jobs are got: #Summoner, #Dragoon, and #Reaper!
I'm very happy with the reaper #weapon this time around. Although the last iteration of the Manderville #scythe fit me well, it did not fit the reaper style well. This, though? It screams reaper. With this weapon in hand, you're definitely reaping some souls.
The dragoon #spear is slick. What else can I say? Damn slick.
I wish the colors on the summoner's #index were different, but I can't win them all. I'm sure many folks are loving the green phoenix fire look.

I have a #blind musician nephew willing to learn more about #Reaper used with #nvda and #osara. However, he lives in Tunisia and mainly speaks Arabic. Is there blind reaper users out there who speaks arabic who could talk with him and help? Or any forum or group where arabic language is used on this topic? Thanks! #a11y #screenreader #accessibility
A reply to the excellent post by @hilljam about the need of a versioning system in the modern music production workflow.
Disclaimer: my take is based on Reaper, and I doubt it could be 'ported' to some other DAW.

Hey #audio engineers!
I have some clips of of a lecture from the 90's that I'm cleaning up for use in a presentation. The audio is not ideal. One stereo channel cuts out a lot and there are a lot of peaky glitch sounds.
I think this is from being recorded straight to VHS in the early 90's, and then digitized into a low-quality mp4.
What would be some straightforward ways to clean up the audio track on this? I have #Reaper but am definitely a novice.
Despite having a PhD, #modular can still make me feel stupid sometimes:
For the life of me I can't figure out how to get my #Keystep 37 (connected by USB #MIDI to my MacBook Pro) to play keyboards on an #iPad soft synth when my iPad Pro, MBP, and ES-9 are part of the same Aggregate Device (and all theoretically connected by USB MIDI), which is the input for Reaper. I feel that I'm missing something in my 'Audio MIDI Setup' utility, although it could be a #Reaper thing.
Anyone have any ideas?
REAPER 6.81 is available with the following accessibility-oriented updates and more:
+ Accessibility: improve description of default track record settings button in preferences.
+ Accessibility: add preference to use standard (screen-reader accessible) OS editing control for video processor code.
+ Accessibility: improve keyboard navigation of video processor presets.

My new REAPER toolbars, after I applied new icons bought from https://audioikons.com. Designed by Øivind Rosvold.
Logic Pro voor iPad. Is dit het omslagpunt?
Het heeft toch langer geduurd dan ik voorspelde. Misschien wel een jaar of 10 jaar later dan ik had gedacht. Zeg nou eens eerlijk: een laptop met een beeldscherm en een toetsenbord dat voelt toch wat ouderwets aan?
1/2 If you are creating #audio on Linux I can recommend #AVLinux.
In my live I did audio-recording on AmigaOS, Windows 98, Linux Ubuntu, Mint and Manjaro and I've got the feeling I've finally found the OS that fits my audio-needs. AVLinux is based upon #MXLinux (which is based upon #Debian) and comes with pre-installed multimedia programms, like #Ardour, #Reaper, #KDEnlive, #Cinelerra, #Musescore, #Hydrogen, #Blender and many others. And hundreds of audio #plugins for Ardour & Reaper.
It's that time again. :)
This months #Reaper made easy Meet-up will happen on Saturday 27th May, 8PM UK, 3PM Eastern.
Join us for May's edition of "I'm Perplexed, What's Next", an open Q&A session where you can ask anything about REAPER, OSARA or #accessible recording. Questions big or small are welcome from anyone with any amount of experience. We'll be online for a couple of hours, helping as many people with as much as we can.
Details on this Q&A and other goodies can be found on https://reaperteacher.com
See you there. :)

On Monday Canada is on holiday, and that means that #DoubleTap is on holiday too. We are back Tuesday talking about #Reaper, while Wednesday we discuss ongoing Apple OS bugs. Thursday we spend the hour with Robert Kingett, the blind journalist, and it’s your feedback on Friday!
Works here for #Reaper:
"Advanced UI/system tweaks. In the first window of Prefs/General at the bottom left, click on Advanced UI/system tweaks. This may or may not give you what you need but it's easy to go back. Check "Scale UI elements" and change the 1 to 1.5 or 1.75 and restart Reaper."

For me 1.1 was good enough.
I put together this demo for how you might accessibly create a convincing shortwave radio vibe complete with carrier whistle, static, the works.
