Reaper 7 released

[ghettosynth]

Did they add object FX, dunno if it is called this way.
You can add different fx to different midi or audio track in the same track.
Hope you know what I mean.

I never saw this in Reaper 6.
Does Reaper 6 also has this feature?

Reaper 6 has take FX. It's a great feature, I use it quite a bit.

A pro takes what they have and makes it happen. It may be difficult but complaining is super easy for a reason, it doesn't get anything done. Pros understand this.

If people didn't complain loud enough which is evidently the case with Reaper, then the development of software would be far better than it is and everybody would be using it, 'Pro' or not.

It appears Studio One is the right app for you and Reaper is not. Fair enough. Yet here you are in a new release fior Reaper thread complaining. And you want to talk about not wanting to waste time?
Pretty amateurish to me but that's just one man's opinion.

For me the "best" is Reaper. For you it's not. Have a nice day.

The Reaper community sits there defending what is delivered, that's not helping anyone. I dunno, perhaps they are afraid of being isolated or shouted down there. Or perhaps they have come to accept that no matter what they say as in what they want, will never come to light that they give up trying. Some of the things I've highlighted are not just my opinion, they have been highlighted by people on YouTube and probably on forums as well. The vast majority of Reaper users are beginners (or amateurs) getting their feet wet, their first DAW effectively because it's cheap/practically free even, or because there isn't much available to Linux users as DAWs go.

I feel sorry for Reaper users, in they not having a DAW built on a modern framework. The development of Reaper seems more like a hobby project for the creator of it.

wow... did you really try reaper for real ?! Coming from cubase and studio one (wich i still own) reaper is so far the best solution if you know how to customize it .i use bitwig because for the grid but in the end everything go back to reaper.GUI is not the best but if you can make a 90x30 png picture it will be the only thing you ll ever need.

Ah. I found it a few seconds ago.
Greate stuff:)
But there is no fx label in the items like in Reaper 7.
Or can I change this?

If you can't see the buttons on the Items go to:

Preferences -> Appearance -> Media -> Media Item Buttons

The ones you want are "No FX" and "Per-Take FX"

Thank you very much:)

Using an archaic, unsightly piece of software doesn't make the one who uses it a Pro, it just means, their priorities are different from those who don't have time, or don't want to waste time getting from point A to B when there are environments that are far sleeker and more intuitive to get work done more quickly and efficiently.

I switched from Studio One to Reaper exactly because Reaper enabled me to do things far more quickly and efficiently.

This trancerguy is just pi**ed and bitter that no one likes his amateur redeigned GUIs for DAWs and VSTs, and especially that no companies notices him.

[TheMaestro]

I havent' downloaded and tried yet.

Yeah, but have you tried Reap…. Oh wait, nevermind.

I've tried Fruity Loops.

Doesn't help who??!!

And yet, we're able to make music with Reaper. Wow...

And for me, it's the best DAW I have ever used. And I've tried most of them.
The workflow features and customization is perfect for me.

That *you* need Studio One's GUI to get internet credits for whatever Reason is a *you* issue.

Yeah I read the wall of text basically as "installing or making a new theme is too hard for me."

I mean he had workflow comments in there too but frankly I don't care, the workflow in Reaper is fast and efficient for me.

Dual-wielding it with Logic has been interesting.

One can't please all the people all the time. You've heard it a million times before. That's why there are alternatives.
Anyhow, I'm placing all focus on *you*. So here it goes: Reaper...Is...Not...For...*You*. It fails to fit your needs. Studio One is your DAW. You know this already.
With that being said, what are you doing here? The same way you didn't appreciate others derailing your headphones thread, most here don't appreciate you derailing a thread regarding a DAW that is clearly not for *you*. It's a Reaper release, not a Studio One release.

The Reaper community sits there defending what is delivered, that's not helping anyone.

It's not helping *you*. You don't speak for the Reaper community, it's all about *you*.

I dunno, perhaps they are afraid of being isolated or shouted down there.

Yeah. We're terrified. Boo.

Or perhaps they have come to accept that no matter what they say as in what they want, will never come to light that they give up trying.

The Reaper forum is doing just fine with a healthy dosage of FRs in various languages. In fact sometimes it feels like the Reaper forum is bigger than KVR.

Some of the things I've highlighted are not just my opinion, they have been highlighted by people on YouTube

Youtube? Is that where all the videos have a preview image where the uploader looks like Macaulay Culkin on the front cover of Home Alone and they all have the title "WTF OMG YOU'LL NEVER BELIEVE WHAT I FOUND - THE MOST INTENSE VIDEO YOU'LL EVER SEE!! even though the video is about how to fry an egg? You must be proud.

The vast majority of Reaper users are beginners (or amateurs) getting their feet wet, their first DAW effectively because it's cheap/practically free even, or because there isn't much available to Linux users as DAWs go.

Did you get these stats from another one of your stupid polls?

I feel sorry for Reaper users

I know right??!! Poor innocent souls got suckered into death's hands and now they're hopelessly DOOMED!! How will they ever escape the deadly grasp of Reaper and chose another DAW?!!

Let the developers hear some appreciation for their hard work!

I told my girlfriend "I have a headache" just so I can f**k with version 7. Ill be up all night.

"I have a headache"

"Ok, I'll leave you alone then"

hears pounding bass drum coming from the next room

Thank god for jewelry, it allows men to get away with doing stupid things.

Even if it wasn't, it could be customized to be fast and efficient. I accidentally deleted the configuration file (like an idiot) and had to re-set everything from scratch. I was surprised how quick and easy it was. Once one gets the feel of Reaper, it's no biggie.
It's not perfect but nothing is.

[digitalboytn]

I guess the attacks on Reaper are from users of other DAWs that are using 50-70% more CPU power to achieve the same result

Reaper is so damn efficient,it's not funny...

From the miniscule install through to the tighty coded operation,it leaves the other DAWs in the dust...

Aud it loads and runs faster than a speeding bullet...

No wonder those other DAW fan boys have to attack Reaper ...

It gives them a sense of justification while they struggle with their lame work horses

[kidslow]

Is Reaper 7 more efficient than 6?
Will anything break if I upgrade?

Retroactive MIDI Recording: Import played MIDI after the fact, even if track recording was not set up or armed.

also a good one

I havent' downloaded and tried yet. But does this mean that there's no longer a huge latencty playing an instrument when the track isn't armed?

I can be wrong but I think that this latency is related to the Anticipative FX processing settings in Audio/Buffering. Maybe the latency is gone when you disable this setting.

You're a genius. Thanks.
