Editing Samples in Reaper

[@SafeRetirement]

Thank You! Thank You! Thank You! I learned so many new techniques in this video. Reaper continues to amaze me because of videos like yours. I started with Cakewalk DOS and paid $99 to $199 continuously for updates through Pro-Audio 8, (they discontinued shortly after that). Four+ years ago I thought, "what do I have to lose but $60." I have received free updates continuously and I haven't even scratched the surface of Reaper's potential. The SWS extensions are great!

Thanks for the tutorial, it's pure gold.

that intro is amazing

pro trick : watch series on flixzone. Me and my gf have been using them for watching loads of movies recently.

[@christianruben2387]

@Calvin Nathaniel Definitely, been watching on flixzone for months myself :D

[@jeffrogers210]

Exactly what I needed to know to split samples of my old Univox Compaq Piano, and 6*464 foreign language samples :-)

That's great, thanks a lot! Makes me think about replacing my audio editor with Reaper :) Is there possibly also a way to loop samples (or regions) automatically within Reaper or on export?

[@IvyAudio]

Glad it was helpful! My workflow has come a long way since I made this video, I really should do an updated version. As for looping, a lot of the time looping in Kontakt is easiest and saves on space, but let me know what you're trying to achieve and maybe I can help.

[@Datacult]

I'm not sure what to achieve yet. Working a lot with samples, using several tools (audio editors, converters and so on), but Reaper seems to be able to replace some of them or at least some steps. When it comes to looping samples I'm using SampleRobot and I think for multisamples it's just the best solution. But for drums the Reaper audio editing features and naming macros for exports seem to be a time-saver. Still not sure if it saves so much time to relativize the time I'd need to learn using Reaper...

[@Xtant-audio]

Good video, very informative! You might save a little time by using the label processor rather than moving items to different tracks before export

[@IvyAudio]

+Xtant Audio Thanks David. I never said it was the best way to edit samples, but it is a way :D

[@yaroslavv.728]

Cool, very useful! Thank you for making these videos. Can you make a video on scripting non-real legato in ksp? Or is it to much to ask? Maybe, instead of making your own script you could go through the SIPS legato script and explain what's what?

[@IvyAudio]

+Ярослав Валерьевич Glad it helped! That's definitely something I can cover, give me a few weeks and hopefully I'll have a video out by then.

[@plum_line]

oh this would be cool. there are some videos on youtube but it'd be awesome to hear your approach too.

[@josephjacobshagen5108]

Can you do all this on a recorded sample of a strings sound?

[@Xtant-audio]

Do you normalize your orchestral samples?

[@IvyAudio]

I try to avoid it wherever possible. The main volume tweaking I do is matching the volume of legato samples to their corresponding sustain samples.

Check the resonic player!
