Default Solo-Dim love

Been using Solo dim alot more recently - by that i mean the dim 'level' is mapped to a knob on my controller. thats the key bit!

the action of interest: adjust solo in front dim (midi cc/mousewheel)

fully clockwise, = same as not solo'd
full anticlockwise = traditional 100% solo'd
imbetween = the solo'd tracks with the rest blending in to taste.

great for editing/reviewing certain tracks, reducing the rest but allowing 'context' decisions.
also for recording new parts without messing with 'official' mix levels, as can net-effectively bump the volume up on the track(s) of interest and allow to you get a good balance for tracking without resorting to headphone mixes etc.

so - Dim Lovio

(welsh gag)

Default CPU saving trick

I haven't come across this Tip in the forum in relation to CPU problems so forgive me if everyone knows this. I am using very basic equipment and this solved a MAJOR headache for me..

I have a project that is running 2 tracks (guitar & piano) through the same VST reverb
Typically this uses 70% of my CPU and my little netbook hates this and will crash.

I've got around this by duplicating the whole project, then using the new version of the project, deleting every track except for the guitar & master, then rendering this to an mp3.

Next I have opened the original project, deleted the guitar track and replaced it with the mp3. I repeated this with the piano track.
They both sound the same as the originals, with the reverb and the mastering FX intact but now use about 20% of the CPU.

I don't have a problem with CPU usually, it only seems to be with this reverb, but until I get some more CPU, it does the trick nicely !

Um... no, they don't. They really don't.

REAPER's mp3 rendering with LAME is superb, but mp3 is not a lossless format, and it is not a good format to use where audio quality is important.

The tip works if the parts with the troublesome plugins are rendered to wav. This can be done within a project by right clicking on the track and choosing Render/freeze tracks > Render tracks to stereo stem tracks (and mute originals).

You can delete the originals if you want to, but there's really no need to. The plugins won't use any CPU once they're disabled.

Mp3 is a good format to use in side projects where audio quality doesn't matter. For example, you might render an entire project to mp3 so as to save resources while you record a solo for it... and the thing to do then would be to throw the mp3 away, and move the solo to the original project, but in wav format, not mp3.

I found a neat trick I haven't seen anywhere yesterday.

- If you want to arm several tracks at once, you can click and hold the arm-button and then drag over the tracks you'd like to arm.

Default limiting tip

There is a wonderful plugin--js schwa audio_statistics.

Do your mixdown. Make sure the volume is-3 or less. Add whatever eq you use. Add audio_statistic. Look at where it displays peak RMS. Add 16 to the peak RMS. For example, if your peak RMS is -20, -20 + 16=-4. Set your limiter threshold to -4. Nice limiting. Not too squashed. Limiting can range from mellow, -16 rms, to modern (to my ears harsh) -12 rms. I usually keep things at around -15 rms.

A small but useful thing - just discovered now that ctrl+dragging inside a track's lane automatically creates a new MIDI item of the desired length...

I use this for audio takes too.

Create a time selection with a count in and include the drawn item. Turn on looping, then select the item and set record mode to 'autopunch selected item'. It'll loop record takes to the selected item with a count in each time.

Default distortion

I'm finding it most difficult to search these fora. Probably I'm using the wrong keywords. I'm not a professional recording engineer. A lot of this stuff is baffling to me.

I was previously recording my voice with Garage Band and Audacity. I was having a lot of problems with clipping. These problems were of two sorts. The first was dynamic range. The second was high frequency clipping, which is particularly important to me as a soprano.

So I got what I think is a fairly decent mic (Audio-technica at2020) and recently downloaded Reaper on an evaluation basis.

I found that the recording is very nice when I am speaking, but when I sing there is still a lot of clipping/distortion. I thought the whole purpose of professional quality recording software was that I wouldn't have these limitations, that I could sing as loud or as high as I wanted, right into the mic, and I wouldn't get distortion.

I suppose there must be something I should adjust to fix this problem, but I don't know what. I tried searching both the documentation and this forum and did not find anything I could understand. I found something about bit depth, but no clue as to how to adjust it.

Here is where your thinking has overshadowed reality.

Back off the mic.

Not that simple. You need to set levels before the signal reaches the computer. If not the signal will already have clipped before it reaches Reaper/Garage Band/Audacity.

So:-

1. What dea-man said

and/or

2. Your sound interface should have a gain/level control - turn it down, probably quite a lot.

Having done that then you should be able to sing as loud & high as you like.

Looks like alanofoz beat me to it since I'm too wordy, but here ya go anyway:

Welcome to Reaperland!

Two things to look out for:

1) When the track you're recording to in Reaper is Record Armed (record button on the track is red), the level meter displays the signal from your microphone.
Make sure that the level from your microphone is not clipping. In fact, it would be best to set your microphone input level to where your microphone track in Reaper peaks at -12dB or less.
Note that you don't adjust your incoming microphone level using the fader in Reaper. You have to adjust it on your audio interface (there should be a knob where your microphone plugs in. Lower that knob down until the absolute maximum level on your microphone track in Reaper peaks at -12dB (this is to play it safe to make sure you don't accidentally clip which causes distortion).

2) Make sure that the maximum volume level on Reaper's Master Track fader isn't coming anywhere near 0dB. If it looks too hot, lower the level on the fader of your microphone track.

Distortion comes from clipping on the way into your computer, or on the way out...

Input signal flow:
Microphone -> Interface -> Computer -> Reaper Microphone Track with record button enabled (signal clipping? Lower the level on the interface)
Once you've recorded something, the rest of the signal flow is:
Audio Item on your microphone track -> Fader on microphone track -> Master Track (signal clipping? Lower the level on your microphone track) -> Computer -> Interface -> Monitor Speakers.
This is a very simplified view but will hopefully help you to narrow down on the most likely cause.

I also forgot to mention that once you disable the record button on your microphone track the level meter shows the level from the recorded Audio Item that's on the track and no longer shows the input level from your microphone.

Hope that helps...

Default Guitar Tip With Amplitube 3

Wow! I just discovered this in Amplitube. I've seen a video tutorial about this once, but never had tested. Now i did, and it is amazing! Thought i'd share with you guys.

1) Set mic blend to 0.50. 2) Select two different mics, one dynamic, one condenser. 3) Position the first in the center of the speaker cone and play around with the second until the sound sounds horrible. 4) Invert the phase of the second mic and voilá! You got a HUGE GOOD sound!

Struggling with all these options! So many quick-commands, I could re-wallpaper my room with sticky notes

With the awesome ReaMenus (I had to install it, for sanity) I don't know if (m)any of the default shortcuts have been re-assigned, to adhere to a pattern.

I don't know if there's been much talk of 'memorable alternative combo's, ie community consensus/suggestions...'

But I see awesome contributions on lua (I think?) coding etiquette (I bookmarked ffr, when I'm 'there')...

It depends so much, of course, on the user - many are migrating from years in other DAW's, and use mimic-mode, to use 'them PRO /FL/ACID familiar-combos...

My memory is impaired.

Has this been discussed/done?

(ie ALT vs CTRL for toggle/show|hide windows... )

You can just tap your pad first, and then double-click note start on ReaSamplomatic and so on.
---
In pref/plug-ins you can check, allow only one FX chain window open at a time.
And check the other two, open track FX window on track selection change and only if any FX window is open.
Then add actions Track: select track 01..etc and add pads.
Then open an FX with the FX (mcp_fx_norm.png) and when pushing pads now, you get your 'ableton' thing.

Don't forget folders and that you can click even on the mcp's folder markers if the themer have been nice.
Right mouse on Mixer, tick clickable icon for folder to show/hide children.
---
Anyone left that don't know about the ripple move stretch markers, go get it, you'll need it.

Scripts: You can convert stretch markers to midi and back, so, and with midi note selector w every 1.note 2.note 3.note etc so you can erase and thereby convert back so you get less stretch markers after using Reapers dynamic split with high detect on purpose.

You can duplicate your item and group, and add eq or compressor or what ever on the top one just to get the peaks move obvious for Reaper or your eyes.
Apply track/take FX as a new take.

Reagate or route to midi drum trigger with a synth to get auto tap is another story.
---
You can add chocolate in your chilli.
Ps, was only gonna type the fist tip, now look... :P

Oh, and Shift + < > moves the loop selection in a practical way if you tweak stretch markers on-the-fly while playing.
(Loop points linked to time selection must be on)

They still use ram unless you delete them IIRC. I duplicate said track, and freeze both. Stick one in a folder called DUMP and use the other cut up / reprocess or whatever and I can still go back and get the original if I need it... frozen tracks use no cpu or ram.

Good tip for sample composers,

Set Reaper to start up with the "prompt" and when starting a new song from a template, tick "startup effects offline".

Your template will load instantly and you can choose which tracks to put online as you go.

Any tricks on how to force the video processor to take effect on the parent video track only?

If I resize video in one track it resizes the track below as well. But I want to keep the one below original.
There seems not to be an option to switch order, because I have to use the Chroma key as well.

Jon, anyone?

put the effect on the item instead of track

You can also mess with the code, look for gfx_blit(0); and change the number. most of my presets use 0.

In project settings/Video there is an option for the order of video layers

I do "items in lower numbered tracks replace higher", meaning a video in track 1 will be seen instead of a video in track 2

Default Midi Triggering a VSTi with a Kick/other track

Midi Triggering a VSTi with a Kick/other track

Sample replacement made extra-easy, especially when using something like Superior Drummer 2.0 in tandem with a real drum recording.

This is exactly what I needed. I did not know about this functionality

Auto take switch for checking takes. Could be usefull when we record many oneshot percs to check what we got.

  • build custom action to switch to next take and toggle transport play.
  • assign custom action to marker.
  • place marker near the end of item but IMPORTANT to left some portion of item after marker like on gif
  • place edit cursor at start of item or quite before
  • select item and play
  • you can experiment with marker and cursor position

Hi !

- Open Reaper Preferences
- Fill in "wheel" in the Find field, lower left bottom of Preferences Window
- You see a setting "ignore mousewheel on all faders"

I assume this setting is unticked in your case, you have to tick it (enable it).

Warm Regards.
