Reaper rewire host, tempo from slave

ulrik · 08-10-2010, 01:46 AM

Hi!
I am new here and have just bought Reaper.
I have succesfully made Reaper work as host in rewire mode and Notion3 as slave, however I can't make Reaper read tempo changes from Notion3. I have enabled the "Allow slave to set tempo" in the fx settings but it still is not working.
Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

Reaper v.3.66 i386
Notion3 v.3.1.276 ( http://notionmusic.com/ )
Macbook pro 2.33 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
OS X 10.6.4

regards Ulrik

I am also having problem if I use Notion as host and Reaper as slave, I can activate rewire audio channels from reaper inside notion but reaper does not respond to any playback functions, I can start and stop notion, (with notion playback controls), as usual but reaper is not moving at all, if I try to start playback from reaper nothing happens, reaper is stuck and notion does not respond.

Suggestions anybody?

regards / Ulrik

I have this issue as well. IMHO, Reaper and Notion working together would be any composer's dream and being able to control the tempo from Notion while in slave mode (or for Reaper to be able to run in slave mode with Notion as host) would be AMAZING for film composing.

Feedback (or better yet, a solution) would be much appreciated!

I'd like to add that this doesn't appear to be limited to OSX. I'm running Windows 7 64bit and the same issue applies. I've tried using the 32 and 64 bit versions of Reaper with Notion with the same results.

Would you mind posting a simple Notion project with a tempo change (sorry, I'm not too familiar with Notion), so we can check this out?

This is a small piece that have ritardandos and accelerandos in it.

This is another example with tempo changes at once, no ritardando or accelerando.

Thank you for posting the example projects. There is clearly a major lack of ReWire communication between Notion and REAPER.

I wrote to Notion, and they were responsive, helpful, and aware of the issues. I send them an analysis of the problems from our side, hopefully they will respond in kind, and we will be able to work out the bugs.

If you have a support ticket with Notion or any other communication, it might be good to bump the ticket with a comment that the REAPER developers are actively trying to get on the same page with Notion.

Great schwa! I will contact the Notion people right away and bump this issue

Thanks a lot for a fast and nice way to take care of this.

Any news regarding this issue?

I realized that the Cockos developers are probably busy with the 4.0 release C:, but I'd like to bump this along and see if any progress has been made on this.

pcartwright · 10-27-2010, 10:24 PM

One more bump. Has any progress been made on this bug?

ulrik · 11-19-2010, 12:12 AM

Has there been any development regarding the rewire communication between Reaper and Notion3?

pcartwright · 12-05-2010, 09:15 PM

Will this issue be resolved in Reaper version 4?

ulrik · 01-10-2011, 05:30 AM

I just want to bump this thread, is there any news regarding the Reaper - Notion3 rewire issue?

keys · 04-26-2011, 04:16 AM

This would indeed help the 'Notation needy'!
Any news of imporvements between Notion and reaper?
Also windows?

I've been reading ALL the threads and demoing ALL the available programs for score editing and by any estimation it is a hot (and hotly debated!) subject.
I'm putting my 3 votes in for this combination with dedicated work to improve the communication between Notion3 and Reaper.

That's +1. +1. +1.

ulrik · 07-07-2011, 05:09 PM

Any news?

I really would like this to work

cheers / Ulrik
