Mixer scrolling feature

SM Ventures · 09-05-2018, 02:31 PM

I have used reaper for many years now and came from other daw's and like reaper the best.

I've searched on and off for a long time to find if the mixer (MCP) can have a vertical scrolling feature. When the window is in a small mode, if this feature were available, many themes would be useful on a single laptop screen. I would be able to see the top of the Mixer as well as the bottom. Maybe sws extension or something?

Does anything like this exist? I'm attaching a gif of an example from sonar and hope the gif works here to visually show the example.

(update: due to the upload size limitations I uploaded a screenshot at the
link below)

Thank you in advance for any input.

Not available but good suggestion imo.

edit:
You do know that you can vertically resize mixer elements (i.e. faders) in certain (most ?) themes as kind of alternative / workaround, right ?

Thanks for your reply nofish.... I appreciate it.

Yes resizing elements do work well on some themes, and don't resize well enough on some of the themes I like.

Maybe in the future vertical scrolling might be implemented

Also I had seen wikiloops in your sig....looks very interesting...are you associated with the creation of that?

You could do a feature request.

I'm not associated with the creation of it but I was quite active there when it started (nowadays not so much anymore sadly) and got in contact with its inventor / creator 'Dick' a couple of times which is a very nice guy it seems.
I like the idea / concept a lot that's why I try to support it at least a little by putting it in my sig...

Yes, nofish....

I think I will put that feature in a request....seems it should be
an available function that would be helpful.

As for wikiloops, I like the concept and work that went into the creation of the site
