Hi.
So, let's say you have something connected into channel 1 on the XR18 (mic? gtr?) and that channel's input is set to Analog...?
How much of a signal can you see on that channel in the X-Air Edit software? Adjust the channel gain to give an average of -18dB with no more than -15bB peak,
Then, in the USB-connected Reaper, insert and record arm a track with it's input set to XR18 input 1.
Play/sing and you should see a corresponding input signal in that Reaper track's meter that is equivalent to the meter reading in the XR18
Start recording in Reaper and, providing you have set a reasonable gain on the XR18, you should see a waveform appearing on the recorded track. Bear in mind that -18dB is not a huge waveform, but it is significant (not just a 'bump')
To playback, you need to add a "XR18 output 1" hardware output to that Reaper track and set the XR18 channel 1 input to USB in X-Air Edit.
For convenience, on the Reaper side, I have saved a project template of 16 tracks mapped to XR18 inputs 1-16 and outputs 1-16.
On the XR18, if you go to the IN/OUT screen on X-air Edit and select USB Returns, you can globally switch all channels to analog input by clicking the "OFF (ANALOG)" button or to USB input by clicking "CH.1-16"
Hope that helps
