There is a free vst called snapshot where you can take a picture of your hardware settings and import it to the vst so you have a reference right there on your track
Five recommendations: 1) Have you tried other Reaper themes? My favorite one is Default Commala 5 2016. 2) When you render set the Resample Mode to Extreme. It consumes more CPU and it lasts longer but the resampling results in a more clean and "untouched" audio. 3) What about setting a buss for everything but the vocals? Like "Instruments". 4) Set all the plugins you use all the time on every track and bypass them, from the Reaper bypass button. If they're "deactivated" (how I like to call them from the Reaper bypass) they don't consume any CPU at all. 5) Try Airwindows Ditherbox with the NJAD on 24 bits when mixing and 16 bits when mastering (unless the client asks for a 24 bits master) at the end of the mixbus chain and on the group buses (deactivated on the later ones unless you're gonna render them separately). Off course, this means that when rendering don't forget to deactivate Reaper's dither and noise shaping. Not so much of a workflow recommendation but this dither is just awesome. Btw, don't you have tracks prepared for importing references? Or is it that you don't use references?
Hey White Sea! I’ve been in one DAW for 20+ years, and just saw this video you did 4 years ago. Thanks for showing my first ever look at Reaper. I’ve seen some of your gear reviews, but I love this, man. You are a very good & thorough teacher. I think I’ll get reaper tomorrow & take the plunge!
I've recently switched to Reaper after over 20 years on Cubase. I'm still working on my workflow and how to take advantage of Reaper. It would be great to see an update on this, how is your 2020 workflow evolved?
1. You can control send volume / pan ! But only with midi cc ("adjust track send...") 2. You dont have to close the region render matrix and go to File:Render.... Click "Render..." on the upper right from your region render matrix and you are just right there ;) 3. Did you try to build window screensets for your second screen? You can, for example, arrange all tools / windows that have something to do with rendering on the second screen and save them as screensets. Or a second screenset for analysis tools (For example I have all important analyzers in monitoring fx). Or a mixer in fullscreen. each with a keystroke available, so you can switch with keyboard shortcut or midi.... 4. Toolbars: For recurring tasks, a custom toolbar makes sense! Toolbars are so powerful! For my part I have a toolbar for editing tasks, mastering tasks, etc etc ... after the fun part of mastering I highlight all trackitems and just press 4 buttons (Set marker, convert to region, set region as master, render) in order, write the track names in the region manager, choose "$region" as filename and I'm done. 30 sec - 1 min maximum.
Hey! I see you're getting your way around pretty fine! Some things you may or may not know: You can disable parent/master send by alt clicking (suppose it's option click on Mac) on the routing square before opening the routing menu so that you don't have to reach the button every time. There is also a sws action you can map that to and make a custom action (a.k.a. macro). Other than that you can drag the routing square to any track to make a send if you have zoomed out to see the tracks that you want. Another way would be to use the routing matrix. If you want something specific I may be able to help you out. Greetings from Halfweg!
Great video. You can create a custom bar with shortcut icons to your most used features at the top. I have 'render' and 'open render queue' as shortcuts, as well as an option to bypass Monitoring FX. The Monitoring FX output is really useful for metering and if you are using an effect on your headphones (I use Waves NX). I really like you tip of using a separate channel as the master channel, so you can do quick A/B reference comparisons!
Great video. About the photo's with settings you save on Dropbox: you can also save the photo's in the Reaper project so you have everything in one place.
You can make action buttons for adding fx or vsti in one click. You need SWS for this. Open Cycle Action Editor. Add Cycle Action Cycle Action Name - Custom: Add ReaEQ command CONSOLE x reaeq. Apply. Then Customise Toolbar, add new Button "Custom Add ReaEQ".
Great video, Reaper looks pretty cool, I did notice, the links to your Patreon as well as to the next video that you pointed to never appeared onscreen.
Very helpful vid. Please do more vids on reaper as it is always nice to see what others are doing. One small correction at 1:53 your mixer window is actually set to Track Layout> Mixer Panel> ea - Strip.... What you were changing was the edit window; track panel to bd ---Small Full Meter, which is off screen. This could be confusing to new users like myself. Anyway, thanks for your efforts and wealth of info. Cheers.
Hi. For the reference tracks you can disable the master send and add a new hardware ouput. So the reference tracks won't be read by the master and the mastering fx chain. No brainer.Done! :).
okay, regarding the routing window: If I got you right, you want a way to route a track by using short cuts? Instead of opening a window and set it there? If so, then all hints about the routing matrix are obsolete, as it is just another window (although a very handy one, indeed)...Hmm let me think about that.
the only problem with DAW's is to learn again and again, Cubasing since my 16's I can tell you, now I am under Linux & discovered this "REAPER" so I give it a try....before by! and it look perfect....
Hi White Sea Studio! Why are you rendering down in 24 bit? I always thought that the quality of the audio was best at 16 bit when rendering down? Thank you!
So, you actually record new tracks processed through the console, and archive the original tracks? I was considering using my console channel-by-channel as an insert, but not recording it.
I like your template, and am starting to work on jobs more like your workflow. Any chance of you posting your template and customized arching actions files for your Patrons? Luckily, I use UAD instead of a console (I dare you to tell the the difference-video idea), so I can recall session settings easily, but I do find myself hitting DSP limits, it would be nice to have those archiving actions. I'm working on some of my own to share with the REAPER/White Sea Studio community, but they require a PDF guide to set up some nudge slots, and I'm waiting until my 501c3 charity paperwork goes through before I unleash them so I can put a "donate" link in them.
There is a free plugin which allows you to save photos for instance within your project. That helps you to save your console and analog gear settings. Not sure about its name but you can google it.
Thanks for the contribution, tremendous, a question, you will understand that reaper has an audio engine more transparent than samplitude x4, I really have samplitude daw long ago and I thought that nothing equals samplitude but I acquired reaper recently and this surprised with the crarity of things, a simple static mix, It really sounds clearer and I know that reaper is 64 bits float and samplitude only 32 bits and even if you configure reaper as samplitude and reaper sampling itself it is perceived as clearer and I have no bad hearing, I would like to know what you think, if so, and I have been looking to know what kind of audio engine it has, because I think it is not normal if it is equated to magix. I would like to know your opinion if it is not annoying or takes time away from your work.
I don't understand what you're saying throughout the video haha. I just bought reaper and am just getting into music production, what resources do you recommend for a beginner beginner producer.
Check TH-cam for Reaper Mania and you'll find just about anything you want to know about Reaper from a seasoned producer, including a step by step tutorial about how to use it.
has anyone used a touchscreen with reaper? some of the things in the video where selecting things by mouse and not keyboard shortcuts is tediuous seems like they might be solved with a touch screen
Great video! It's always interesting to see others' workflows. Now, my tip: Organization starts at step one. It's your own fault that bits and pieces of a project is everywhere, forcing you to copy your files.
how to set up a compressor release time according to the BPM of the song How to calculate the release time for the compressor according to song BPM please make a video on it
Hay there fellow dutchman . Allow me to introduce myself . Johannes aka OHO for simply others helping others . I looked for a basic tutorial on reaper which started of great till drums came in guitar . etc etc yet very little on vocals . I am curious when most bands have singers it all seems to be about the beat guitars and drums . my question is and I am sure many would like to learn We want to do cover songs from karaoke tracks . What chain is best and could you kindly create a small chat just on vocal . I am using reaper as my daw have wave plugins although to keep it simple for us all what comes first gate eq comp looking forward to an OHO reply because we are all learning for each other are we not . kindly no guitar no drums . because all we want to do is sing along with track . in summary kindly share the chain best to start with and also the chain for the backing track . The master track does that require a chain . We have looked hi and low now have bought a great xlr mike and a akaia mixer mackie studio monitors. have had some good songs according to friend s yet never consistent !! watch your channel often when i say you and reaper together i thought ja nouw vraag ik meneer witte zee :) you appear to be the learned reaper guru and a hell of a likable guy . a a dutch guy that looks like my best friend in holland yap left at 13 with long hair like you hie hie now 52 in new zealand . the does no go jo jay its ya brother do doe here . looking forward to some clarity in this for all . Warmly OHO ps you do not come across as a guy that just want likes you realy like helping do you nod now :)
Great video! But frankly, I wouldn't render out both sample rates from reaper for two reasons: rendering at 44.1kHz switches the whole rendering path to 44.1kHz. So all plugins will work at a lower sample rate, thereby risking more aliasing artefacts. Also: slow. I'd just use something like r8brain and batch process the folder with the exported files. Yes, it's an extra step outside of reaper, but on my machine (i7-2600k with 8GB RAM) a 4 minute song is converted in almost an instant, so no need to get a second coffee. It'll presumably sound better, too. Otherwise some great stuff in there!
Great info. Thanks the tip. I've got an i5 with 8GB RAM, and rendering out an audiobook that needed massive repair work with iZotope and FF plugins in multiple layers all over the thing took over a day. That's not common, but it's good to know if I've got another massive repair project. Much appreciated.
Oh, you didn't mention r8brain is only for Windoze. I think I know of maybe 2 professionals that use Windoze. Seems like it might run in Wine on the Mac, though. I'll give it a try. We like to complain about how bad Apple has become since Steve Jobs died and especially since they fired Scott Forstall, but a quick trip into doing audio or video in Windoze makes you grateful really fast. I'm glad REAPER is developing for Linux now. I hope they either create a plugin wrapper for the third party plugins or companies like iZotope and Fab Filter start developing for Linux. Pretty soon the Mac is going to be as bad as Windoze for professionals, and Linux will be the only viable option for a professional workflow. Sad.
This is partially incorrect; you can set Reaper to handle the render process in project sample rate (ie. 192khz) and then convert 44.1 in render options. So no need to downgrade the whole render signal flow.
@@xaosnox Windoze.. So you are one of those people who think that paying an exorbitant amount for processing power via a Mac is cool. I get it, your ego is bigger than your sensibilities. Things have moved on since the 90's ;-)
I looks like a very configurable DAW, but the UX isn't great. I like the basic look of the channel swim lanes, but the menu-ing and dialog layouts have all the elegance of a 747 cockpit...way too distracting. To me it looks like they hired a designer just to work on the sound clip presentation and then let a developer have free-reign on the rest of the UI. Since I create music, I think this workflow would get in my way.
I felt the same about it when I first started producing with reaper. However, have found once familiarizing myself, and being able to customize my workflow, it has hands down become my favorite DAW to work in. Regardless the task at hand
hi! have you heard of Harrison Mixbus DAW ? guess it's a new patient for your snake oil vids))) they claim it sounds exactly like analog cause theu modelled every capacitor of the console
> " they claim it sounds exactly like analog cause theu modelled every capacitor of the console" Which ones exactly they all have a different sound. This analogue in digital love affair is driving me nuts. Just give us multiple of plugins that answer a single problem and make it easy to listen through the previews. That would be 100% better then trying to mix to album, tape and CD when we know that digital music sounded horrible for the first 20 years of CD, because it took a long time to figure out the mastering.
I used Harrison's Mixbus for years along with Reaper.A lot of people is still doing that. I can say that no matter what you put in, the final mix sounds more glued and good sounding (to my taste). They're a serious company and the tech support is awesome. But recently , I gave up using it because its workflow is a hassle, and I gave up to spend lots of times&procedures in order to learn their way of managing things. There's a video White Sea ( I don't know his name) says he thinks of PTools as an ex-girlfriend that when you met occasionally, you still have ''feelings'' - I feel the same with MBus, but now I'm in Reaper for sure... and happier
tony pelosi I also thought Mixbus sounded better untill I tried putting distortion and/or tape consoles plug-ins on every track in Reaper... ...then Reaper sounded better, much better. (I mainly use Steven Slate Tape Machine and Satin from U-he along with Decapitator from Sound Toys)
mixbus has definetely a great sound but workflow is a bitch...i cant get the tracks of my drums sound great in reaper as in mixbuss...but true iron helps a bit more now...its all about the saturation...do a kazrog true iron snake oil
Thanks for your inspiring video - lots of useful tips. A tip with regards to true collaboration with Reaper: MusiCollaboration - www.mucol.ch A couple of scripts allow from a "main-project" to generate instrument specific projects which can be shared over any of the available cloud-services (such as google-drive, OneDrive, iCloud or Dropbox). The instrument projects can be used for recording or practicing independently from all other participants. The recordings made in all instrument projects and also the main-project can be synchronized using plugin-independent backtracks so that everyone involved has the latest work results available to them.
You do understand the native sample rate clocking on any smart phone is 48Khz right? Don't believe me? Record a video and look at the audio info. Why anyone does 44.1khz anymore is beyond me. No one listens to CD's anymore (16 Bit audio file).
I want to love Reaper so much, but I hate the looks of it. I'm just that shallow 😞. Does it matter you say? Well.. I spend more time looking at my DAW than my girlfriend.
I want to love Reaper. Have installed it a dozen times. But i'm too shallow. I can't get over its horrible gui and it feels like there's settings/options everywhere. Looks like it was made using Java Swing.

REAPER is completely absolutely worth it
I've been a casual Reaper user for many years and you just gave me several great ideas and showed me a few features I'd never touched. Thank you!
I've tried 'em all, REAPER ROCKS~!!!
You and me both brother. Found reaper years ago and never turned away.
I've recently switched to Reaper after over 20 years on Cubase. I'm still working on my workflow and how to take advantage of Reaper.
It would be great to see an update on this, how is your 2020 workflow evolved?
Great! I hope this would be part 1/of many. Reaper has so many facilities that individual workflows are always welcomed - specially yours.Thanks.
Hello Steven Wilson!
I've been waiting for this vid. Thanks again!
It really worked for me after I look and try some tutorials, yours is the one that worked. Owe you a lot.
Thanks for sharing this info. Much appreciated

Open Cycle Action Editor.
Add Cycle Action
Cycle Action Name - Custom: Add ReaEQ
command CONSOLE x reaeq.
Apply.
Then Customise Toolbar, add new Button "Custom Add ReaEQ".
Great video. Nice to see you using Reaper full-time. Maybe consider a video on how you are using the fabFilter plugins in your Master folder.
I didn't know SWS extensions supported automatic track coloring _and_ icons! Dang! Just installed that...
That was really informative :)
Great video, Reaper looks pretty cool, I did notice, the links to your Patreon as well as to the next video that you pointed to never appeared onscreen.
Very helpful vid. Please do more vids on reaper as it is always nice to see what others are doing. One small correction at 1:53 your mixer window is actually set to Track Layout> Mixer Panel> ea - Strip.... What you were changing was the edit window; track panel to bd ---Small Full Meter, which is off screen. This could be confusing to new users like myself. Anyway, thanks for your efforts and wealth of info. Cheers.
What theme are you using in Reaper? I really like the meters you have going on. Great channel.
6:30 brilliant
Quick question do u have 2 computer monitors? Helps a lot. Great vid keep it up
When you mention album workflow, how do you achieve that subproject worflow? Is that a PIP (project in project) feature? Can you explain little more?
What are your thoughts on editing in Reaper? I tried using it years ago but I never really liked the editing part of Reaper
by the way... do u just export final mix inside box or record it realtime back into computer or a dedicated master recorder?
thanks!
!4044 Nice tip. I did not know about that one.What about dithering?
Thanks for the video. Very helpful for me. Since Reaper is now in version 6, is there new features added that can be included in your workflow?
Hi. For the reference tracks you can disable the master send and add a new hardware ouput. So the reference tracks won't be read by the master and the mastering fx chain. No brainer.Done! :).
Can u share your Reaper template and maybe tell us more about your main folder/sub folder project for skimming through a whole album??
okay, regarding the routing window: If I got you right, you want a way to route a track by using short cuts? Instead of opening a window and set it there? If so, then all hints about the routing matrix are obsolete, as it is just another window (although a very handy one, indeed)...Hmm let me think about that.
more reaper videos pls
the only problem with DAW's is to learn again and again, Cubasing since my 16's I can tell you, now I am under Linux & discovered this "REAPER" so I give it a try....before by! and it look perfect....
If you dont want to go to the trouble of setting up your own mix but you can just play a reference track int he Media Explorer
Is there a Cubase 10 type template with a control room mixer available?
Did u customize the Region Render Matrix?
Hi White Sea Studio! Why are you rendering down in 24 bit? I always thought that the quality of the audio was best at 16 bit when rendering down? Thank you!
How do you get those meters like in the video and thumbnail
So, you actually record new tracks processed through the console, and archive the original tracks? I was considering using my console channel-by-channel as an insert, but not recording it.
How did you do meter displey on folder tracks?
How do i record internal sound from my loptop.. wasapi does not work error shows
Could please help with how the track layout for the folder tracks automatically changed when u dragged n dropped those child tracks ? at 8:46
I've been using logic. I'm use to it. So how's reaper compared.
I like your template, and am starting to work on jobs more like your workflow. Any chance of you posting your template and customized arching actions files for your Patrons? Luckily, I use UAD instead of a console (I dare you to tell the the difference-video idea), so I can recall session settings easily, but I do find myself hitting DSP limits, it would be nice to have those archiving actions.

Have you tried mixbus 32 v6 ?
Can you please make an Update Video to this one. A 2020 Edition!
Reaper is perfect for you.
There is a free plugin which allows you to save photos for instance within your project. That helps you to save your console and analog gear settings. Not sure about its name but you can google it.
You can drag n drop photos straight into any reaper track. Sws extensions have notes option too

"Dees are all my bösses"
Reaper win!
Reaper best!
your channel is sick af
Can you run plugins on this DAW right out the gate? Or do you have to pay a premium like studio one?
Yes you can.
hopefully sub count will go up
9:30
Dude for real. I had to put some controls together in a separate scripting language to manipulate routing and its still not great.
all workеd
I don't understand what you're saying throughout the video haha. I just bought reaper and am just getting into music production, what resources do you recommend for a beginner beginner producer.

No one cares
are you steven wilson?
Hay there fellow dutchman . Allow me to introduce myself . Johannes aka OHO
for simply others helping others .
I looked for a basic tutorial on reaper which started of great till drums came in guitar .
etc etc
yet very little on vocals . I am curious when most bands have singers it all seems to be about the beat guitars and drums . my question is and I am sure many would like to learn
We want to do cover songs from karaoke tracks .
What chain is best and could you kindly create a small chat just on vocal .
I am using reaper as my daw have wave plugins although to keep it simple for us all
what comes first gate eq comp looking forward to an OHO reply
because we are all learning for each other are we not .
kindly no guitar no drums . because all we want to do is sing along with track .
in summary kindly share the chain best to start with
and also the chain for the backing track .
The master track does that require a chain .
We have looked hi and low now have bought a great xlr mike and a akaia mixer
mackie studio monitors.
have had some good songs according to friend s
yet never consistent !!
watch your channel often when i say you and reaper together i thought
ja nouw vraag ik meneer witte zee :)
you appear to be the learned reaper guru and a hell of a likable guy .
a a dutch guy that looks like my best friend in holland
yap left at 13 with long hair like you hie hie now 52
in new zealand .
the does no go jo jay its ya brother do doe here .
looking forward to some clarity in this for all .
Warmly OHO
ps you do not come across as a guy that just want likes
you realy like helping do you nod now :)
Great video! But frankly, I wouldn't render out both sample rates from reaper for two reasons: rendering at 44.1kHz switches the whole rendering path to 44.1kHz. So all plugins will work at a lower sample rate, thereby risking more aliasing artefacts. Also: slow.
I'd just use something like r8brain and batch process the folder with the exported files. Yes, it's an extra step outside of reaper, but on my machine (i7-2600k with 8GB RAM) a 4 minute song is converted in almost an instant, so no need to get a second coffee. It'll presumably sound better, too.
Otherwise some great stuff in there!
Great info. Thanks the tip. I've got an i5 with 8GB RAM, and rendering out an audiobook that needed massive repair work with iZotope and FF plugins in multiple layers all over the thing took over a day. That's not common, but it's good to know if I've got another massive repair project. Much appreciated.
Oh, you didn't mention r8brain is only for Windoze. I think I know of maybe 2 professionals that use Windoze. Seems like it might run in Wine on the Mac, though. I'll give it a try. We like to complain about how bad Apple has become since Steve Jobs died and especially since they fired Scott Forstall, but a quick trip into doing audio or video in Windoze makes you grateful really fast. I'm glad REAPER is developing for Linux now. I hope they either create a plugin wrapper for the third party plugins or companies like iZotope and Fab Filter start developing for Linux. Pretty soon the Mac is going to be as bad as Windoze for professionals, and Linux will be the only viable option for a professional workflow. Sad.
Alright! Works great in Wine (and Wineskin, if you want to waste half a gig on one plugin). Thank you!!!
This is partially incorrect; you can set Reaper to handle the render process in project sample rate (ie. 192khz) and then convert 44.1 in render options. So no need to downgrade the whole render signal flow.
@@xaosnox Windoze.. So you are one of those people who think that paying an exorbitant amount for processing power via a Mac is cool.
I get it, your ego is bigger than your sensibilities. Things have moved on since the 90's ;-)
Didn't think you were still making videos
Steven Tramontozzi he never stopped
I cant believe you have switched to Reaper i thought you were a Pro tools guru hahahahahaha
Pro Tools is overrated.
As well as being full of bugs and licensing issues!

I felt the same about it when I first started producing with reaper. However, have found once familiarizing myself, and being able to customize my workflow, it has hands down become my favorite DAW to work in. Regardless the task at hand
hi! have you heard of Harrison Mixbus DAW ? guess it's a new patient for your snake oil vids))) they claim it sounds exactly like analog cause theu modelled every capacitor of the console
But when you record audio via an interface there goes all the analog, because the signal recorded is turned to digital
> " they claim it sounds exactly like analog cause theu modelled every capacitor of the console"
Which ones exactly they all have a different sound. This analogue in digital love affair is driving me nuts. Just give us multiple of plugins that answer a single problem and make it easy to listen through the previews. That would be 100% better then trying to mix to album, tape and CD when we know that digital music sounded horrible for the first 20 years of CD, because it took a long time to figure out the mastering.
I used Harrison's Mixbus for years along with Reaper.A lot of people is still doing that. I can say that no matter what you put in, the final mix sounds more glued and good sounding (to my taste). They're a serious company and the tech support is awesome. But recently , I gave up using it because its workflow is a hassle, and I gave up to spend lots of times&procedures in order to learn their way of managing things. There's a video White Sea ( I don't know his name) says he thinks of PTools as an ex-girlfriend that when you met occasionally, you still have ''feelings'' - I feel the same with MBus, but now I'm in Reaper for sure... and happier
tony pelosi I also thought Mixbus sounded better untill I tried putting distortion and/or tape consoles plug-ins on every track in Reaper... ...then Reaper sounded better, much better. (I mainly use Steven Slate Tape Machine and Satin from U-he along with Decapitator from Sound Toys)
mixbus has definetely a great sound but workflow is a bitch...i cant get the tracks of my drums sound great in reaper as in mixbuss...but true iron helps a bit more now...its all about the saturation...do a kazrog true iron snake oil

His advice may be too trusting of business in the US.. give a client a mixed final on a dropbox you may never get paid//fight for that money.
Hi
Mlk, se pá que o canal foi hackeado
Thanks for your inspiring video - lots of useful tips.
A tip with regards to true collaboration with Reaper: MusiCollaboration - www.mucol.ch
A couple of scripts allow from a "main-project" to generate instrument specific projects which can be shared over any of the available cloud-services (such as google-drive, OneDrive, iCloud or Dropbox). The instrument projects can be used for recording or practicing independently from all other participants. The recordings made in all instrument projects and also the main-project can be synchronized using plugin-independent backtracks so that everyone involved has the latest work results available to them.

congrats you also learned something new today.
🤣 I've been using reaper for years... It was a new one for me!
you can use monitor fx section for flux sample grabber or other metering plugins. th-cam.com/video/hk8qN-69tNE/w-d-xo.html
You do understand the native sample rate clocking on any smart phone is 48Khz right? Don't believe me? Record a video and look at the audio info. Why anyone does 44.1khz anymore is beyond me. No one listens to CD's anymore (16 Bit audio file).
Who listens to music on their phone if they want clarity??
Check out radial menu for reaper.its a fast way of doing things.

I want to love Reaper so much, but I hate the looks of it. I'm just that shallow 😞. Does it matter you say? Well.. I spend more time looking at my DAW than my girlfriend.

I want to love Reaper. Have installed it a dozen times. But i'm too shallow. I can't get over its horrible gui and it feels like there's settings/options everywhere. Looks like it was made using Java Swing.
You should make screenshots as well instead of taking pictures with your mobile. Way more practical.
I can't stand Reaper. Everything is hidden in a setting. It's ridiculous. More time searching menus than working.
How do you get those meters like in the video and thumbnail
