Hi. I asked Justin at Allen and Heath if he could set up a controller template for me so I can run Reaper with the midi section on my new Zed R16 analog firewire mixer.

The R16 ( so-far ) is a sweet mixer. I would love to continue using Reaper ; along with the rest of my band mates , but if I cant use the transport and midi functions with this software , we'll have to move on to some other recording software.

This is what they had to say at Allen and Heath today :

"Hello,
I've been playing with Reaper and the Zed R-16 without very much success. It seems to me that Reaper is more limited than alot of DAWs in its ability to set up control surfaces and in its midi control. I can get it to control midi tracks using reaControl MIDI but at this point having it control audio tracks is not happening for me. I'm going to recommend that you use an officially supported DAW such as Logic, or hop on the Reaper forums and ask some Reaper experts for assistance because I'm running out of ideas about how to make the MIDI control useful with this DAW.
Thanks,"

Anybody have a fix ?
