Very cool. 11 hours of songs. Was thinking of making Mix Render queues highlighting sections like you describe.
Problem with Render Queue - when you suddenly want to stop - you can't.
Instead, you need to wait for EACH Render Queue mix to load (with Plugins) and then cancel. If you have plugins on your tracks (and I do), you must add in time to load plugins before you can cancel each Render queue. Reaper, ASAIK, has no emergency STOP method here.
- Making an 11 hour 2 track stereo mix on the Submaster track - you can stop whenever you want
- And start up exactly where you left off
- Making submixes CHILD to Submaster / PARENT (collapsing tracks easily allows this) makes routing unnecessary
- Sound flow is now from submixes direct to SubMaster and then to Master out
- No more competition from submixes going straight to Master Out and submixes going to Track 1 by sends
Bottom Line: Sound of mix is exactly what is in 2 track recorded stereo submix on Track 1. Staying in digital realm. Client is dancing on the moon. What can I say. Reaper is phenomenal! So are the people here.
Purpose of Submixes - different volumes of EQ / Lows - against top submix tracks - EQ / Mids / highs
Over view - Reaper doing a great / amazing job
Child Submixes expanded - audio can only go through SubMaster / Track 1 (Recorded 2 Trk Stereo Mix) - then to Master Out
SubMaster Track 1 / Parent to Child Submixes
Reaper Energy!! - Fillet Mignon Steak w/Garlic / Vanilla Chobanni / Java
