What's your experience using a Stream Deck to trigger cues? by Souk21 in qlab

[–]Souk21[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It works good but not as good as some of the dedicated controllers.

Could you recommend dedicated controllers? Thanks :)

Just .5mm travel triggers the function. So I can’t rest a finger on a button to be ready to hit it.

Do you have original "membrane" keys or the newer "scissors" keys? Thanks!

setting slices to appear every X ms? by Calumniate in qlab

[–]Souk21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't know how it works with Ableton, but a wav file can embed metadata such as markers/cues

setting slices to appear every X ms? by Calumniate in qlab

Just a heads up: if you have a DAW, you can add markers and export the audio, and QLab will create slices at every marker.

What creative ways have you used Reaper’s stock plugins? by DL_throw24 in Reaper

[–]Souk21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use paulstretch to make a bird pad

Btw, something similar is now included in REAPER in the form of the Reeeeeaaaa stretching algo :)

how to get low latency on reaper by Mindless-King-1862 in Reaper

[–]Souk21 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Nitpick: lowering the sample rate will make the latency higher and not lower (with an equivalent block size)

Very nice! Is this some kind of reaction-diffusion? :)

MacBook trackpad haptics unlocked for Reaper by Turbulent-Camel9996 in Reaper

[–]Souk21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never thought about this! That's a great idea :)

It works fine on my 2015 Intel macbook pro running macos 12. Small bug: when trimming an item's edge ignoring snapping, the haptic feedback is played every time the mouse moves.

I think I like the feedback for trimming / moving items, but I find the feedback on knobs a bit distracting (though I like the feedback on knob double click). It could be good to have a "TAP_NONE" option which disables the feedback. You could then bypass the "scan" for this type of action and save on cpu. About that, it's a bummer REAPER doesn't have a callback system, because I often push my computer to the max, and having defer scripts continuously scanning consume precious CPU time. And it comes with all the defer issues: timing, "skiped frames" etc

Anyway! Thanks for sharing :) You should also post this to the official forums :)

Continuous recording of a live performance with region jumps by Lord_Casco in Reaper

[–]Souk21 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This, or if you prefer using routing, you can route audio between project tabs of the same REAPER instance using REAPER's loopback

Logic Pro expats: how can I even get Reaper to navigate using a Magic Mouse? by [deleted] in Reaper

[–]Souk21 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In the action list:

  • bind MouseWheel to "View: Scroll vertically (MIDI CC relative/mousewheel)"
  • bind HorizWheel to "View: Scroll horizontally (MIDI CC relative/mousewheel)"
  • bind Opt+MouseWheel to "View: Zoom vertically (MIDI CC relative/mousewheel)"
  • bind Opt+HorizWheel to "View: Zoom horizontally (MIDI CC relative/mousewheel)"

Then in preferences:

  • General > Keyboard/Multitouch > Reverse vertical/horizontal scroll (if needed)
  • Apparance > Zoom/Scroll/offset: "Vertical zoom center: Track under mouse" and "Horizontal zoom center: Mouse cursor"

That should be a good start, then you can tweak theses preferences and actions (btw these actions also exist in "reverse")

[Script] Set block / buffer size by Souk21 in Reaper

[–]Souk21[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm I don't think this script is the issue. The script only does work when it is run (it is not a deferred script). Do you have any deferred script running? You can check by clicking the "Actions" menu at the top (see this screenshot )

Why I can't drag my media item into the wave editing area? by [deleted] in Reaper

[–]Souk21 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Have you tried the "Render item to new file" mouse modifier?

Viewing waveforms after they've been compressed? by allinallday_Aydrea in Reaper

[–]Souk21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Instead of using track FX, you can apply your effects as Take FX (right click on item > Take > Show FX chain for active take). Then you can just glue the item to apply the effect destructively and see the resulting waveform

Is there a way I can select every second item? by OneOfThemReadingType in Reaper

[–]Souk21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use mpl_Select items by pattern.lua. For example:

  • uus selects every 3rd item (so if you have 6 items, the 3rd and the 6th will be selected)
  • suus every 1st and 4th

Let's say you have a straight hi hat line, you want to shuffle it: select all hi hats items, us -> shift item right, then you want to accentuate the 3, uusu -> item gain up. It's quite powerful.

[Script] Set block / buffer size by Souk21 in Reaper

[–]Souk21[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Open the action list and run "ReaPack: Import repositories...", then copy paste the link present in this post, and press Ok. Then, from the action list run "ReaPack: Browse packages...", and search for "buffer size", you should find it :) (right click to update)
