Default Cockos Reaper_www (Web control of Reaper) New plugin

Here

Happened to mention to Justin that i was thinking of using an old PDA to control Reaper for some stuff and BAM RIGHT IN THE KISSER

Features
Near realtime update
Track ID
Mute
Solo
FX enable/disable
Metering
Volume +label
Pan +label

Read the instructions in the .zip
Has been tested with iOS and Firefox but also i have it working in Chrome and JBM has it working on Android.

Test as many browsers as you can and let us know
(Keep in mind this was a "Yeah i have something that might do that" kind of deal so don't expect a thousand updates a week like Reaper (Although honestly i think this is rather a big feature haha)



Running in Chrome

Oh its open ended too
Look inside the main.js for details, this can be configured to control much most things in Reaper (Just need the right javascript)

yep - am envisaging all kinds of versions for all kinds of situations and devices popping up v soon once the codefreaks get a wiff...

unfortunately i can't programme much beyond:

10 print "ben is cool"
20 goto 10

but i can make the buttons bigger in gimp...

Whhah?

Similar to something like Max for Live? If so, then the main difference would be latency vs sample accurate timing.

How high level are the functions?

It uses the same API that the SWS stuff is built on
So it really is very very powerful
I'm no coder but i am sure somebody out there is going to go completely nutso with this and come up with all kinds of mad control options.

No, it's for remote control (via web browser). You can write the UI for the remote control using html/javascript/ajax.

Interesting.

A guy in New Zealand could be controlling Reaper with this, while I play...

Some people replicate part of the screen on their touch screen devices to control parts of the DAW, but with this you don't even need to have those controls onscreen.

Cool stuff. Another wow.

questions or suggestions:

1. could we please have the transport floating somewhere so that we can scroll through tracks but always have the transport on top?

2. is this going to cause a problem whilst rendering? I got a runtime error and crash when i rendered, also I could stop it from the tablet, which paused the render or something

3. bigger buttons please

4. works awesome otherwise.

Hey Jason, 1 and 3 are simple html things one can do oneself. Frames or something for the floating transport, <img blah blah height="bigger than before" etc> for the button sizes.

Works in IE8+, Firefox, Chrome, and Safari (only tested the latter on my iPhone)..

Thanks Justin - that looks and works great here. However, I'm finding it difficult to zero the faders after making adjustments - any chance you could build in a double-click function (as in the main Reaper GUI) to revert faders to 0.0db?

somebody who actually knows what they are talking about will chime in, but in the meantime, iirc, you have to find which machine is assigned on your router in the address. here at my place, it changes all the time and i have to add a 1 or 2 etc to the end of address. dunno if that makes any sense, but that's how i do it...

Not sure I understand exactly what you are asking, but I think you are trying to access one system from another. If so, "localhost" is the machine you are on when you type it. It is the "local" machine - local to where you are now. You need the IP address of the OTHER machine.

If you run the localhost from the system running Reaper, that will work because it IS local.

i want to remotely run reaper on a desktop from my netbook.

i open reaper in the desktop. (the desktop also includes the reaper_www files.
then i open a browser (firefox) on the netbook. i enter the address http://(IP address of desktop):8808/

for some reason this does not work anymore.
