Reaper 8.0 when?

[electro]

1) When is Reaper 8.0 due?
2) Are they bringing native support for Ableton Link?

What difference does a number make?

Oh! You might be trying to maximize the $60 non-commercial license price. That's understandable.

As for the other question, I have no idea.

I heard in September. No native support for Ableton Link, but Suno support will be built in.

No Ableton Link, no interest. Figure it comes in a big version update.

September seems a bit early, given we're only at 7.76 at the moment. At least I'm hoping so, my license will need renewing at v8.0

The closest Reaper gets to big version update is the whole-number updates. Even then I think they only change when they get to x.99

Not necessarily. The final version of Reaper 6 was v6.83. https://www.reaper.fm/download-old.php?ver=6x

[ThoughtExperiment]

I stand corrected. Still hoping we get to 7.99 before I have to pay up

The release of a new major version is not related to the current version numbers. To be honest it doesn’t even seem to be related to major features either, as they often release huge changes in a minor version increment.

The most noticeable change between major versions has always been the new theme in my experience.

Hopefully for R8 we get away from the purely functional UI choices towards more aestetically-driven choices, although I don’t have much hope for it.

Personally, I prefer the purely-functional look for my DAW, it's less distracting. I quite like fancy-looking plugins though

I wished for that since Rv5.

Tried a couple of times to make mixer at least readable, as below.
- something that guide eye glanzing what is there in mixer

Not sure who came up with that "dark" should mean no parts in mixer can be separated and easily seen.
- if devs have extreme contrast settings on their computer or something so it looks good for them

I have monitor calibrated to I can see clearly difference 0-5 in grayscale, and 250-255, every level.

Rv5 were a couple of major things as I recall
- VST3 support
- Waves were officially supported
- maybe something more, notation?

Looking at v6 and v7 do not remember if anything major that I longed for.
