Regarding that multiple windows - which on top issue I can recommend the AOT tool you can find here on the forum.
But I agree: It shouldn't be a problem in the first place.

Another one for the v6 wishlist:
When the diskspace is full, on the project disk or system disk, plz inform the user of this!
As I understand it, the optional warning is off by default (?), and my warning was off now most likely because of the Reaper update I just did, and the optional warning still doesn't warn you that your track renders or track freezing will result in blank 0 byte files (because there is no discspace) even when optional disc-space warning IS on.
Reaper just keeps working, and (apparently) storing our work, renders, recordings, and the only indication you get that something isn't right, is that the waveforms just 'stops' mid-item, or starts showing up as blank on the most recently recorded items. But this only noticed for files that show up inside of Reaper. If you've made a number of master output renders to wave-files that are not re-imported into Reaper, you won't know that those renders turned out to be just empty shell-files with near 0 byte sizes.
I bet plenty of people will not associate the funky waveformless visual with a full disc, and just keep going on, realizing far later that all their work wasn't even stored. They may even think that the blank items are just a funky redraw discrepancy which the 'Rebuild all peaks' action will fix later on; they just can't be arsed with searching out that action in the actions list right at this very moment.
One may even consider making this kind of warning a hardcoded feature, since people will turn the optional warning dialog off just to be rid of the warning dialog, and then quickly forget they're very close to full disc, and when they discover this, they'll quite likely blame Reaper, say it can't be trusted to professional work and standards etc. It's crazy, I know, but people can be a bit like that.

midi learn & range control
I really really hope that the basic functionality of direct, quick midi learn for volume faders will be available finally. Including a window pop-up to control the midi cc range, the behaviour (log vs lin) and the option to assign the same midi fader or knob to multiple controls. And last but not least, a window with a list of all the midi assignments, a bit like the region manager but for midi control.
All of this without the need for a workaround like ReaLearn which I found far from ideal.
Simply :
1. right-click any fader or a knob
2. choose midi-learn
3. window pops up
4. touch midi control knob/fader
5. adjust range and behaviour.
6. List of midi control assignments in the "view" Tab
This seems seems to me to be such a basic feature to implement, considering it has been present in much more limited daw's like ableton for ages. Considering there's already a midi learn functionality for plugin parameters, and that there's a range control on the parameter modulation LFO, I have no idea why these functions aren't available for all of reaper's parameters/knobs/faders
This would be a major improvement in hands-on control functionality : quick fader rides, pan automation, precise eq rides without the need for large and/or expensive midi controller surfaces.
I know many of you are going osc, motorised surfaces or touch pads, but I (and I like to presume I'm not the only one) am still stuck with simple midi controllers and don't like ipad's/touch surfaces for daw control.

Toolbar actions for:
1, selecting specific block size (change buffer size to 128, 256, 512, etc. with one click)
and
2, Saved Render presets to enable choosing specific rendering application with the click of a button.

Reaper 6?
Track grouping: For editing, drawing any automation & fades.
One day it will catch up with Protools from 1989...
(Reaper is 30 years behind in track grouping !)
Track grouping for drawing automation is non existent !!!!!
Reaper 6? - make it Pro - unleash track grouping.
The year is 2019.

I'd be happy with just having dB level readouts by default on every track. Total oversight just relying on a colorful bar showing levels. Where is the dB readout on each track? Le sigh. More hacking I guess. Gotta make more themes to make up?

Hilarious.
Blinding white backgrounds have returned for me. Still running 1809 update, same settings. The only thing "unusual" I've done is install WT's beta theme that had the elaborate control panel options, I don't think that should have any permeable effect.
But with Windows constantly "loading updates" after shutdowns now,... I'm at a loss. I've still got my dark theme file explorer (personally thanked one of the MS devs online for that, it only took.. 20 years????), but.. ahrgh.
Frakking frak. Can't have anything nice.

i would love to see better default settings and >>hotkeys<<,
just look at ableton 10.1
i'm in love with in depth scirpts and really customizable of almost every operation
but if default hotkeys will be remade (there could be popup in first opening of v6)
>>collaborations will be easier<<
and have multiple people working on one computer / project
right now reaper is very personal, and each copy of pref is for one user only

Please no more things added that you can't remove if you don't like the item. For me the item I would like to remove if I could is Reapers notation, it is not that good.

OK, ReaPack might be an installation option, and not installed (but removed), if you actually uncheck that option in the installation menu (avoiding the entry in the "extensions" menu).
But why do you think the notation feature hurts if it's present but not used ?

Just look at the size of reaper before and after notation, with not using notation and using another notation to get one that works to my satisfaction I'm getting a double penalty on memory usage.
I wish notation was written in a manner that third party companies could also provide a notation that is complete and displays musical score correctly, which Reaper notation doesn't.
Other than my complaints regarding notation, I love Reaper.

I did not actually check, but my impression is:
before: really small, after: a little bit less really small .

FORCE IMPORTANT WINDOWS TO THE FRONT NO MATTER WHAT!!! Thanks.
Yes, I yelled it drives me nuts every time for example:
I open a project and a library (Kontakt) is not found or the samples are not found,
and it's "stuck" loading the project, only to find I have to alt+tab to a Kontakt
window where I am being told exactly that, and I need to click on something to proceed.
Or I close a project, but I have Kontakt right in my face, and Reaper asks me
if I want to SAVE the project, but I don't know what it's asking (I use voodoo
to know that) and I can't for the life of me click yes or no because Kontakt
is over that window that just popped to ask me that and I can't alt+tab to that Windows window to select yes or no... and I have to force Reaper to close... grrrr
GRRRRRR akjdsfkadjf GRRR... lol.
(AND God forbid I use the force a REaper window to be on top of it all (pin), that just makes it worse)....

Thanks for trying, now it's worse:
I get a pop up window "Loading instruments has failed, as the library Kontakt
is not installed on this computer", is hidden by Kontakt actually, and I can't click on it to say "ok".
At least I could Alt + TAb and close it to circunvent its purpose.
(Of course I am loading projects that I know will cause some issue to test this).
EDIT: Ok, I need to live with this a little longer, because perhaps the issue I mention is the only one now showing. Thanks again.

Only that it depends on the users current feelings which windows are important at that moment and which are not.
Hence an expensive Reading Mind USB device is necessary to make this work.

A gentle reminder: There isnt even an ALPHA version out there yet, apart from White Tie`s early Reaper 6 style theme.

AFAIU: Reaper is under constant (very successful and very welcome) development, sub-version appearing any few weeks.
The only thing that is only updated with full versions is the default look.
So I would say that there is an ALPHA of the essence of v6.
But in fact I don't really care about that number. v6 will cost me few Euros, but I will happily pay that small amount.

The most important window is the one that requires IMMEDIATE action or Reaper would
be locked out.
I've had to force Reaper to close because of this, zillions of times.

REALLY???
So there isn`t any actual beta testing being done? Straight from Alpha to release....
Hmmmm... Does make me wonder about WEhite Tie already working on the R6 theme but nothing obviously R6 oriented in the pre-releases that I can see.
It`s all pretty much a smooth transition with gradual introduction of stuff that has been worked on for ages. Devs usually have something major-ish held back until near the beta testing starts. Sorry - ALPHA.
All a case of semantics I suppose...

There is a way around forcing close. I used to alt+tab until I got the dialog window and then hit enter really fast afterwards, but there's a better way. I'm just forgetting it right now. I think there's a way to move the window as I recall, or something like that. I wish I could remember. It was a eureka moment, combined with feeling stupid. But I forget already lol.

Is it known which DAW or host may be including ARA?
FL Studio has vaguely mentioned ARA.

MIDI delay between IN and OUT with hardware synths
I am new to Reaper and currently I am about to check out if Reaper could replace my "old" sequencer / DAW.
Yesterday I noticed that there's a MIDI delay between IN and OUT with hardware synths.
And I found this discussion here:
https://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?t=175007
I would suggest that using
. MMRESULT midiOutShortMsg( HMIDIOUT hmo, DWORD dwMsg);
inside the MIDI callback procedure or thread
would immediately mirror the MIDI messages on the input directly to the output.
I would like to see "no delay" between IN and OUT with MIDI hardware synths in Reaper.

This is technically impossible, as as well the Midi transfer out of the computer as the A/D to get the audio into the computer are bound to impose some latency.
In Reaper, there Is ReaInsert that can compensate such latency.

Hello Michael, and thanks for welcome.
Technically the MIDI hardware interface is very slow
as it is an old serial connection, yes.
"Really no delay" is technically impossible, yes.
But if You add 1 ms for each note on hardware input
and 1 ms for each note on hardware output (due to MIDI interface speed ..)
it is possible to get really close to 2 ms
passing this midi note through the computer/software and the MIDI hardware
to the connected hardware synthesizer / drum computer.
Other DAWs do have this "no delay" (as far as technically posssible)
and I noticed that Reaper instead has a massive delay.
I currently use Samplitude and Studio One and there's no _noticable_ delay.
I also tried other DAWs .. Even under Emagic Logic Windows
on an old 500 MHz PC, 25 years ago, the MIDI delay was not this "noticable",
for the musicians ears.
I would like to see Reaper being improved to reduce this MIDI delay.

It's hard to imagine that/how Reaper itself should impose any latency. This needs to be due to some kind of system configuration.

Ehi this would be very welcome, I opened a thread asking for this regarding the use of VEP with Reaper.
Actually I ended not using VEP at all, it is a very workflow killer having to use two track for midi and audio.
