Essentially classical music editing requires copying and pasting a preferred section of a repair or patch take across a faulty take, and then cross-fading the entry and exit points of the edit. If this could be achieved in REAPER with the same ease and precision that other platforms attain, it would be a huge problem solver for the many classical music editors worldwide who use REAPER for session recording and editing.

The desired process is shown in this Sequoia video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eh-j3jblSfQ
2 years on and no progress....so time to bump it.

Anyone needing to deal with multiple takes or repair/patches to takes and needing to assemble podcasts, classical music editing ( or indeed any type of editing requiring the insertion and cross fades of replacement materia)l would welcome this, and the several much more costly alternatives have individual foibles, bugs etc....so Reaper is uniquely poised to achieve this sort of editing with minimal tweaks to the basic platform. It's no longer a niche function....it's quite mainstream
