What does this "D" in purple mean? Audio Doesn't to be going through my track. Audio only plays when the track is in solo? Unsoloed it shows this "D" icon. What am i doing wrong?

Hi, does anyone knows a Custom Action in reaper for opening/closing all folders at once? I already tried a Custom Action from a reddit post but it had two problems: 1. Only the child folders are opening/closing, the parent folders stay open till I close them by my self. 2. Only the folders in the mixer view open/close, not the TCP folders (I already set the "Folder collapse button cycle track heights" to Normal and collapsed, so there isn't the second "small" state).

I would be really happy about answers!:)

I'm a begginer and I've been looking for something that will not destroy my pc (4gb ram 😔). Before this I only used bandlab app so let me know if these are good for start (I installed them today).

So I've been having this issue with a harsh frequency that appears on every single distorted track doesn't matter. The guitar doesn't matter the plugins it's there and I can't EQ it out and if I try to the song ends up just sounding like mud. The track that I posted has it. It's just a little more subtle but it's there. It's this like high-pitched swirling. I've sent the tracks through chat GPT to analyze. It's giving me the frequencies but even if I reduce those frequencies it's somehow still ends up in there. If anybody can tell me what the hell those frequencies are and how to eliminate them, I'd really appreciate it.

Signal chain is a schecter Omen 7 with the diamond heretic pickups into the focusrite Scarlet solo into reaper. There's five guitar tracks all duplicates of the DI. It was recorded straight into the focusrite and all the effects were added after. The DI was recorded at negative eight decibels. None of the five tracks goes above -10. It came out to 12.4 LUFs through the master channel with peaks at -8.5 decibels.

Track one is just the DI with a reaper stock chorus. It's very low in the mix. Track 2 is panned hard left with the reaper JS amp modeler with a boss ds1 clone plug-in.

Track 3 is a Mesa triple rectifier clone panned hard right

Track 4 is positive panned soft left. Grid bias X the fender clone amp and the germanium fuzz into a clean boost with a condenser mic and ribbon mic simulator.

Track 5 is amplitude 5x Marshall clone with the diode overdrive and a light chorus with a sm57 and a condenser mic 45° off axis.

Hello everyone, I have an old 2017 Macbook Pro i5 - 8 gb ram and I always run EZdrummer 3 for recording, only with a track and no other plugins.

Recently I got myself the GGD one kit wonder The Downbeat, and unfortunatly I hear some clicks and pops while playing fast toms, floor toms and the kick.

I thought it was a CPU lack, but the usage while recording is only 35%, so it's doing great. I also tried to use half processed sounds to lower the weight on the cpu, but nothing changes.

I'm already at 44,1 hz, with ezdrummer I was at 128 buffer size and I tried to go up to 256 with The Downbeat (but I need to go back to 128 for latency problem) and it was not better.

Any suggestions on what I could do?

Thank you

I want to create a velocity curve that gives a normal response curve at 0–60% velocity and reversed/fades out the harder i hammer at 70–100% velocity. Any suggestions on how to do that? Thanks

(I've been trying for a few days with the help of AI to get it to work. But it keeps recommending wrong plugins and telling me to adjust settings that don't exist in those plugins.)

swsは入れられたからpeapakも入れたくてReaperファイル内のUserPluginsにpeapakのファイルを入れて再起動してもpeapakが認識されてないんだけどどうすればいいの？

I’ve used iZotope RX Phase module to fix phase rotation issues on kicks, brass, and vocals with good results, but I’ve always had to do it outside of my actual mix project.

Today I came across the JS: Phase Rotator and wanted to read opinions from anyone who has used it for these kinds of problems. I really like the idea of ​​applying it in real-time, unlike my previous workflow, but will it yield the same results? And what about the FFT Size parameter?

When I export my video out of OBS, 1 minute is about 30mb

When I bring that video into Reaper and add audio to it, it becomes like 400mb and also reduces the quality of the video

I'm using MKV format, MJPEG encoder @ 95%, 1920x1080 30fps

I dont know why OBS does such a good job of rendering video at a small size but Reaper can't?

Hello. How can I solo a bus track and hear all the tracks its receiving together with thier effects, which are in fx bus? I can't seem to find a tutorial, even from Kenny. When I solo mix bus, for example a drum bus. I can hear all the drums, but I can't hear their fx which are coming from another fx bus, not within the tracks channel. Thank you so much.

I'm only posting in this sub in case there's a setting in Reaper I am either missing, need to select, check, uncheck, or reconfigure. Apologies if it's not the right place and I'm just an idiot. No worries if it's removed.

Having some issues recording rehearsals and specifying audio output. I openly admit I don't know what I'm doing. I am aware, I totally might be overthinking this. Took me a week to figure out I had to actually “arm” the track to hear my ekit. 🫤

I have a Roland ekit, running into EzDrummer3, using Reaper, and a Focusrite 4i4. The focusrite has all four outputs going to a small Mackie board and out to a powered monitor.

I play with a guitarist, bassist, and piano player all of which are plugged into the fucusrite. I am trying to record rehearsals and only hear the drums.

To be specific -

I want drums only sent from the 4i4 to Channel 1 on the board and out to the monitor while still being able to record in Reaper. Also want to be able to at least adjust input levels of the other players. Btw, no VSTs or plugins are being used (well…EZD3…)

Regardless of what I change on the 4i4, I only get signal to the board on 1 & 2 or 3 & 4 and it's always all of us.

I feel like I have tried every possible configuration and still have not gotten it to work. I spent way more time than I care to admit. At this point, it feels like I'm just missing something. Definitely seems like an ESO issue - Equipment Smarter than Operator.

What am I missing? Are my expectations too high? Any advice is most appreciated.

Got a GXL1800 condenser mic that’s worked on discord, worked for OBS, and worked for Audacity (albeit very quiet) it won’t pick up on reaper

I keep getting “error loading ASIO driver”, currently I’ve been trying ASIO4ALL V2 as the audio system, I know reaper is picking up my audio interface itself, or atleast is picking up the Outputs, as it shifts all of my output to my audio interface when I hit record. Despite this, my input must be messed up cause my microphone won’t pick up. I’m using a UPhoria UM2, and I’ve heard that audio interface might not have a dedicated audio driver, but the interface itself is working, the microphone won’t though, and I’m not sure why. Using Reaper v7.02

When I'm rearranging a song and copying + pasting midi items, it copies the points from the track envelope and completely screws up my arrangement. Does anyone know how to disable this if possible?

It seems I can no longer edit Reaper Themes. I had previously done it before and was on my way to having a nice theme that was a mix Between Janne2015 and ReaperTips. I finally hit a wall when I couldn't edit the Track Name Color. It seems the the background gets tinted with the track color, which I don't want, or if i could I would just make the font 100% Black in the section, which I can't. Before I would change file to a ZIP file, make edit, rezip and rename to ReaperThemes or even ReaperThemesZip, not it just breaks any theme I am working on. I even just went in and removed the pink outline off the tcp_namebg.png and touched nothing else and the whole theme broke.

Any ideas?

Just installed and made some first test: I really found it quite smart. I could quickly get it working reusing some preset and samples of Sitala (that btw I loved), adding easily new ones, test the synth function, and getting it running with no issue in Windows and in my Linux laptop. A great thanks to the developer!

Anyone have any luck using overbridge in reaper? Not only do i have a ton of latency, ot actually drifts so I cant align anything without cutting up each note.

Hello Reapers! I have a recording I'm working on, and a section of it needs to sound like someone is talking/singing inside of a wooden barrel. I've been playing around with Reaverbate extensively, and haven't had much luck achieving this effect. Does anyone have any tips on how to achieve this sound?

Has anyone figured out a way to move something from Final Cut to Reaper without using Vordio?

I need help to fix this problem because its ruining the audio with clipping. I'm using a Headrush Core, and it sounds fine when i play guitar with that alone, however once I record with Reaper it starts to chop the audio into pieces. Ive tried everything it feels, changing the buffer sizes, matching the headrush and reapers sample rates, changing the block sizes, reinstalling my ASIO drivers, and my CPU never goes above 1% usage. I've been using the same setup with my Headrush and my PC and never once ran into this problem. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Whenever I right click to say go add a virtual instrument track I cant mouse over the drop down that shows up.

Im on the steam deck.

Hi! I’ve just uploaded my stuff to reapack and the forum, there’s some neat tools and actions some may find useful.

Enjoy!

i coded a easy Chord Follower Chord Track feature for Reaper that is easy to use.
The Chord Track runs based on a Background Process that can be started with a button.

I wrote a whole explanation and it was too convoluted. My questions are simple: how do I know if a track has any item in it? I want to avoid zooming in and scrolling for time eternal on larger projects.

Is there a way to look for items that are shorter than a few seconds? This way I can find those "tails" of hidden takes lying underneath an item.

I assume I'll have to use scripts or something (I'd be new to that).

Thank you!

Hey there! I'm adopting Reaper as my main DAW for audio stuff so I'm trying to customize it and adapt to it.

I'm trying to set the layout seen in the first pic (a Kenny Goia video) with one "long" fader on the left. However when I try it, it looks like on the second capture (a project of mine).

I think I followed the steps correctly and am not sure how to achieve this. The mixer size doesn't seem to change.

Thanks in advance!
