Revolver tracks!

[James HE]

Last time I checked out The S&M resources window, I missed that you could right click on the icons and set a Relative path to the Project path.

This means we can save templates per project. This gives us Revolver like tracks, which is a really cool feature in Samplitude Pro.

I just tested this out, and I am able to swap back and forth between A track with Addictive drums, and a track that is a 16 channel audio render of the plug-in. (both have the same routing) and or also another 16 channel render of a different take.

Amazing! Kudos to S&M!

(note to self - start doing your 16ch. renders directly to FLAC.. lol)

** oh heck, I just checked and FLAC can only to 8 channels. derf.

Look at how samplitude does this and quit keep reinventing the wheel!!

If you are going to have a feature from other daw's copy it, improve it and impliment it properly.

The S&M extension absolutely kills the way REvolver tracks work in Samp.

All you can do in Samp is to revolve objects / takes/ and edits.

In REAPER you can revolve Track effects, INPUT Effects, envelopes, Routing, and media items.

Just search for open/close S$M resources window.

From the window you can manage Track Templates, Media Files, project templates, themes, FX Chains, and images.

looks like in the Media Files section, you can preview media through a track (and it's effects) haven't really tested it out yet.

On topic: ha ha! Thanks for the kind words, James
It has not been made with that in mind at all, but yes, as very far as I understand, "revolver tracks" is one of the things the S&M Resources can do. Here, for the track template part, we also intensively use it for comping too (comping preserving splits, etc..).

I've never personally used Revolver Tracks but aren't they just Samp's version of "Playlists"?

I mean, that's a pretty "snappy" name tbh, but I have no clue what they actually do.

yes! you can have different splits - also you can have different slip edits to your comps.

One good use is to render a VSTi. THen tweak with insert FX. If you decide you need to change the render (a different patch or what ever) you can save the FX of the track, call up the original Vsti, change the patch, render, then apply the template for the previous FX if you want. All within the same track without interrupting sends or envelopes.
