Thanks Bob,

I don't understand the purpose of the END master track. Should it be empty?

FYI My Master track has already no FX.

I also don't understand why I have issues activating UAD plugs that in theory have nothing to do with the CPU.

Make another track at end of all your tracks and call it END MASTER.

Now - make the MY MASTER track a folder track (parent) and make the END MASTER track the last track in the folder.

Put all the FX you had on the Reaper Master track onto the new MY MASTER track, and remove all the FX from the Reaper Master track.

Having FX on the Reaper Master can unduly affect the RT Cpu usage, whereas on a "normal" track (or folder track), it can farm out the jobs to other cpus.

If you have a complicated setup of folders and busses already, then you still need to make the MY MASTER track to hold the master fx, biut then route the tracks and busses and parent folders to this new Master track, anbd also make sure that none of these re-routed tracks have a send to the Reaper Master track (else you will get the track outputs doubled up!)

Hope this helps.
