Default Action: "Start new files during recording" and recpass

hey guys,
for the recorded filename I use $recpass. That works well but the action "start new file during recording" doesn't increment $recpass.

This is a known issue, the $recpass wildcard is incompatible with the option to start new files during recording. When that option is enabled, REAPER creates file handles in advance so they can be used immediately as needed without interrupting processing, which means the file is created before the $recpass value is known.

ah ok thanks for making this clear. I'm just searching for possibilities to create proper "take" numbers. It's needed for classical / jazz recordings where takes are recorded sequentially one after another as well as for the new fixed lane system.

There might be a way to improve this to be a bit more useful, stay tuned

Any updates on this? I have a somewhat hacky take counter display solution that grabs recpass from statechunk but ideally it would be great to add this as a display option on the Big Clock window so that the user can also choose to show the current or next recpass value based on record state). In the meantime, is there a way to grab the current global recpass counter value via API without needing to iterate through media items? This is problematic for various reasons...

Ideally we could rename the whole recpass thing even during recording (like it‘s possible in sequoia for example). So we can have „rehearsal 01(…)“ and switch to „concert 01(…)“ in classical situations later on. Or „rhythm group 01“ and „vocal group 01“ in overdubs scenarios.

Yes, this is something I will add to my function at some point. It would only need a small change to finding the maximum take count, giving it a partial filename versus just searching for the number.

BTW: I realized I had posted here as well as in the "How to" section of the scripting thread. I consider my function pretty robust at this point but definitely willing to add in what you suggested. Essentially I've side-stepped the REAPER take system entirely. See the ReaClassical thread for details...

love your efforts! But I think this is be helpful in many cases, so some kind of native implementation would be cool.

Agreed, but it is a niche ask hence getting my own version up and running so the functionality is there. And, honestly, depending on how the native version shapes up, I might still end up using my own for ReaClassical.
