Rendered take same name as source

[mlprod]

When I render my mix in Reaper, I want the resulting take to have the same name as the source file which I specified from wildcards etc.

Is this possible? If not, it really should be i think.

Bump on this!

You mean when you use 'item' render mode right? (Otherwise there would be no single source file...)

Does the 'item' wildcard for the output name not do just that?

No,not when you render with the region matris, the resulting item will have a name like "rendered" or simliar.

My guess is that's only an option for the item render mode because that's the only mode with a single source to pass the name on from. Sorry, that's all I know.

Naw this isnt item render related.

When rendering regions and adding them back to the project for reference (via the option in the render dialogue), its hard to know what file you have in the project, since all rendered versions of the same region will have the same name. (on the item not the file).
Work around is to add them back to the project manually, but its a pain if there is a lot of files rendered.
