I'm adding the Pencil tool or smooth highlited waveform for de clicker and the Multitrack editing improvements - Extended edit groups requests to the post production requests.

It seems that dialogue editors are right up there on heavy use of the pencil-to-waveform feature, and a lot of folks like to edit lots of tracks at once, but not all, and without having to group items.

Thus we have the following list of feature requests running :

• 23.976 support for Timecode Generator and Sync

This feature request is now partially done. The timecode sync options now carry an entry for 23.976 timecode. The timecode generator item does not yet have this timecode option.

• Improved Video Support

The Improved Video Support request is partially done. Video now works reliably for most of the formats we use. If not, please post in this discussion thread for the issue.

We still have these feature requests to show up in Reaper :

• Pencil tool or smooth highlited waveform for de clicker

• Multitrack editing improvements - Extended edit groups

• Tape Editing with Intelligence built in

This is in development. They're doing a lot of under-the-hood work to get this done. We should see some results pretty soon.

• Area Selection

This is a big deal to all editors. Contrary to what some may assume, Reaper in fact only has half the editing capabilities of Protools, which has object based editing as well. Rest assured, we'll keep asking for this, as everybody I know that works as an editor is asking for this. We call it a basic necessity.

• Reaper Media Management

Another basic necessity for post production work, and a definite workflow booster for all music productions. No word on this yet, but SWS is working on something that might fill this horrible void we find ourselves in right now.
