What's new in REAPER v6.14 update - FX and sends in TCP; group fx params and sends with fx in mixer

[@stuartbradley2692]

Yes, thanks Jon. Great work as usual. I've found the new 'Track panels:optionally show FX and sends in track panels' options (13:25) in the right-click context menu of the empty TCP area.

[@PeterJohnsonWales]

Thx Jon. Brilliant TCP and MCP tweaks that I'd never have discovered or understood without your guidance. I appreciate it.

[@reacherstudio]

Really really good update. Thanks man! Your videos are the best

[@mageprometheus]

I just upgraded and this poped up. I'm liking the TCP and mixer additions. Thank you for the clear show and tell.

[@Skijumptoes]

Thanks for this summary, really handy. I really like that they're advancing the track controls features, brilliant!

[@cmd_f5]

Looks like a good cleanup update. I dig it. Thanks for all the great REAPER content!

[@alexstoffin3083]

I looked more at your studio than anything else ... Congratulations !!!

[@Charlie_Echo]

Ahhh FX scrollbars is such a nice QoL update! Those up/down buttons were a real pain. I think grouping params with inserts will be really helpful too.

[@ominousbeatsofficial6774]

The ability to take off default fades is so niceee

[@Not-Only-Reaper-Tutorials]

the DOP; DLL is the top for sends and FX. BUt it's already a great step ahead. FINALLY! You can't imagine for how many years I hoped in this

[@mariodario9033]

Few little changes :) God dammit, day by day I fall in love with Reaper more and more. Scroll bar on plugins area is not a small changes, it's a huuuuge change :) Reaper is the best DAW, no doubt now. THX for the tut.

[@unclespooky]

Thanks for getting this up so fast. great fyi.

[@cowbless]

Thanks for this very useful summary

[@deltavistastudio124]

Timely, informative, poignant, rockin John!

[@MusicByIanLtd]

Thanks Jon. Another great video FXList looks like it's being incorporated slowly but surely.. Would love it if it was so that I could put something else on the left of the TCP. But I guess I just need to get bigger screens and use what Reaper has now. The scrolling function is great too. All these small things add up.

[@emblemcc]

Whoever is programming all this new features and keep the program sane for them and for us is insane.

[@nectariosm]

Finally sends on TCP. Its worth it just for that.

[@emarsk77]

I feel like we're very close to being able to put sends in arbitrary positions along the effects chain, like in Ardour. That would be cool.

[@auroranamex5886]

I hope we'll get per item varispeed automation one day...

[@ramiolsen]

YES, that would be AMAZING! Please do that!

[@audiobirdi]

Thanks for this Jon! This is amazing as always!

[@BLMeredith87]

It may look messy but I'd also like to see maybe the post-fader send actually being underneath the fader, just to complete the whole idea they were going for! :)

[@Eric-dd8bk]

Hello. Thank you for all your very informative and helpful Reaper videos. I have one problem here. I have the track on midi overdub mode and the track is armed. I press record, the song plays through but nothing gets recorded. I made sure the record mode is MIDI overdub and I changed the preference settings to MIDI overdub as well. Am I missing something? I come from Cakewalk where you can overdub as many layers on top of both audio and midi tracks by default so I might be missing something here. I'm on the latest version of reaper. Portable install. Thank you.

[@TadDoylemusic]

Good one. Thanks Jon.

[@smacksalad]

Great video. Thanks. I notice you have more of a fader function under the fx name area when the fx show in the TCP. Is that theme dependent? I have just an ugly dial instead and cant find an option to get more of the slider/fader type control isntead.

[@TheREAPERBlog]

I'm using default 6 in the video.

[@smacksalad]

@@TheREAPERBlog Hmm, ok, thanks. I'll do some looking into this! :)

[@diegopadovani4942]

Awesome! Would be nice too someday an option to disable FXs up to down stacking to keep the plugin at the slot you inserted it. That would be great when you have to use a base FX chain and have to insert some FXs between them.

[@vicnest]

"Track panels: optionally show fx and send" is in TCP (left panel side instead of right item side) right mouse click menu as in the same menu of "Show master track"

[@TheREAPERBlog]

I don't think it's in an expected place IMO. And of course when I brought it up on Friday on the forum nobody answered

[@dagamusik]

The TCP new functions will save me thousands of clicks!

[@RyanDainjur]

Guys... I love Reaper so much ❤

[@alexmental3504]

You are Legend! Thnx

[@AironExTv]

Thanks Jon.

[@smacksalad]

Found I have the show fx/send in the TCP in the Options drop down. No action list searching needed. Not sure how I have this but you dont? Confusing :)

[@TheREAPERBlog]

Smacksalad Productions I didn’t realize I had a custom options menu, still that’s not where I would expect to find it.

[@smacksalad]

@@TheREAPERBlog Yeah, I stumbled across it accidentally. Wondered if it was something I'd done, or they'd sneaked an update in there, or I'd accidentally installed a dev version.

[@CyberSpaceStudioSkopje]

Why reaper can't freeze channel with Melodyne 5 on it ?

[@bastianmaze_beats8730]

Hi! Thanks for all the info you share with us. If you can help me with this y would really appreciate it. I have an iPad with synth apps on it, I’m not a proficient keyboard player so I would like to take advantage of midi programming in reaper, but use the sounds of the iPad apps. My question is, is there a way to send a pre-programmed midi part to an iPad? You know, I program, quantize, arrange a midi part in reaper and then I send it to the iPad to trigger the sounds of the apps and re-record is as audio back to an audio track in reaper. Is that possible? Thank you!

[@TheREAPERBlog]

I haven't done any of this but it should all be possible. you could export the MIDI as a file and import it (maybe depending on the app), or send the notes through Network OSC, or through physical MIDI connection if you have an interface for the ipad.

[@MCAlvesPortugal]

Great video😎

[@higltypig]

the best part of this update for me is changing samplerate without crashing the computer :)

[@YankInches]

I can't seem to find an answer for an issue I am having and have had with Reaper for like a year. Sometimes when I boot it up, it will take like 20 minutes to open. It get's stuck on loading various things, mainly "scanning VSTs". It's not all the time but it's most of the time. Anyone got a fix?

[@SaturnVoyager11]

Does anyone know how to highlight plugins with Colors in the plugin folder? I have a lot of plugins so I like to make some of them very clear and fast to catch and use it. Thanks

[@TheREAPERBlog]

why not just use a favorite folder?

[@mabian69]

I have the switches for TCP send and insert display (when size permits) in my stock global options menu .... maybe you customized yours and so the new options weren't added by default?

[@TheREAPERBlog]

I thoroughly checked before I complained about it on the 19th, I think they tweaked it before public release.

[@bc74660]

Is it possible to have the image (like the cover of the disc present in the source file) linked with a Repaer export?

[@TheREAPERBlog]

you can add it in the metadata window. don't think you can extract an image from a source file

[@bc74660]

@@TheREAPERBlog Thank a lot ! I would like to make a music playlist mounted in reaper, exported to mp3 (lasting 1 hour) to be able to make the transitions I want, keeping in the export the name of the track and the image for each song. I understood that it could be done with markers but I didn't understand well :)

[@bc74660]

or at least have only the name and the author without the image but have this information that changes with the songs as you listen

[@megashredderofkate]

ive got a question for you. when i pan things (ie guitar), the further i pan them the more the volume reduces - is there something in the settings where i can pan without losing volume? your help would be greatly appreciated!

[@VladimirZerg]

Try changing pan law

[@yikelu]

The sends inside the FX chain makes me think we're going to get the fader inside it next. Would be cool to do post-fader FX!

[@luckyankraj]

Can't wait to try the airwindows plugins omce that is done

[@jazzbeats8168]

how is windows vs osx?

Thanks Jon!

[@djhansol4224]

A bit smaller update than expected. But very nice with the sends. Not a day late.

can you please update surround setup and post a video HOW TO... i try every steps but did not work at all.. can use surround... thank you... i dont want to go back VegasPro, but its perfect, easy surround mixing and moving sound.... in reaper its impossible to do that... a simple 5.1 audio project update is needit!!!! thank you..

wtf did you edit this video so well that those gridlines jump of your screen or is it a preference setting? maybe you have tutorial of it that i havent seen

[@Randallkoller]

when did recording a song become such a ridiculously complicated affair? AND STILL doesn't sound near as good as the 70's! Crazy!

[@Randallkoller]

@Gustav Landerholm I owned one of those evil tape machines MCI console and outboard, despite the routine maintenance life was so much better and easier and the shit sounded much better . I'd go back in a heart beat, ADAT'S HDR'S and workstations have destroyed this industry and music itself! Don't like the truth? Cry me another handfull. It's unfirtunate that every clown with a computer a mic and fruity loops is a "producer" and or an "artist" they are neither!

[@Randallkoller]

@Gustav Landerholm I use Reaper and Mixbus, my point was and is that this is getting ridiculous, all these company's have to come out with the new product we can't live without and beat us to death with marketing. The entire gane has become ridiculous.. like your gibberish

[@luckyankraj]

@@Randallkoller So are you unhappy over people without thousands of dollars invested getting the ability to make music ? The barrier to entry has gone down now which is good imo. Yes you'll have a lot more mediocre artists but you will also not miss out on genuinely talented artists just because they couldn't afford all the fancy gear. Not to mention the creative freedom that the digital medium gives when you are not bound by the rules/limits of your hardware. The plugin hysteria is not welcome though , but then there are good and bad sides of all tech.

[@Randallkoller]

@@luckyankraj I miss talent and clowns not having the ability to impose it on the public until it was developed!

[@Randallkoller]

@Gustav Landerholm I've been in this business 40+ years it's not a game to me it's how I earn a living! Therin lies the problem for the millions of midiheads who call themselves producers and the unwashed who call themselves artists. This is a business not a game!

[@profundisconfutatis8093]

I'm waiting for the update that doesn't shove politics in my face. not sure if you have any sway, but 1 or 2 references is fine here and there, often times they were cleaver, less obvious jabs at the president. That's fine. I don't care if the creators are political, and since most of the titles aren't serious; some light satire wasn't annoying. Now I just don't plan on updating reaper, and while I haven't re-installed cubase, that reality is getting closer and closer. I pay money for a license to use music creation software, I do not pay to be e-lectured by it's creators. There will be 0 people who support BLM changing their minds based on the name of an update, and there will also be 0 peoples minds changed who don't support BLM. Duct taping those words onto something isn't a discussion, it's not informative, it's just a shitty bumpersticker that can only piss people off. The reason this matters to you, is that you put effort into bringing people into the reaper ecosystem, and that effort is being undermined. I can no longer suggest reaper to people without first vetting their politics, else they'll see the name of the version and be turned off before they can even download it. This is needless, it doesn't actually help BLM, and it wastes energy creators like you put into this platform.
