Thanks!

I haven't checked yet but hopefully there will be actions too that can turn copy cue markers for selected items into take markers.

Something that might also be needed as an option when rendering take markers as cue markers is to be able to ignore old cue markers as we can't easily remove cue markers beforehand so would be good to have that option

Thank you so so so much for looking at midi note stuff
Overdub mode is recording notes all over the place and also the piano roll is inserting notes when clicking on a key.
Thanks.

Just tested take markers to cues and works great so far thanks!

I actually realised that cue markers already in the audio file have never been able to be rendered again anyway without first being turned into project markers so if we get actions to convert any type of markers into take makers and back again then we will have a great system there!

I'm hoping in the long term that cue and transient markers will also show up in media explorer but that's a long term dream not urgent!

Default Global snap settings

Since we are adjusting some of the snap settings, is there any interest in taking a look at this feature request regarding a global snap setting preference?

Since the midi is being touched on can this issue please get some attention?

Reaper's count-in/pre-roll doesn't work well with Akai MPC Software
like other DAWS.

When using "count-in before recording" Reaper bypasses the plugin or channel in the background and the plugin will eventually say "audio device not working"..."no audio will be processed"
and as soon as you're about to record your loop it will spike the cpu and stutter/crackle on the audio output causing the start of the recording to be ruined. In some cases it causes Reaper and the MPC software's sequencer to be out of sync while recording.

When using "pre-roll before recording" mpc software automatically starts playing during the preroll and it isn't fully in sync with eachother's sequencer. The behavior that's common in other DAWS (Reason, Fl studio, Cubase and Ableton) is that when pre=roll is enabled, it will not trigger the mpc software sequencer until the end of the pre-roll and then you can record just fine...but reaper doesn't do this. So can you please add an option to allow for pre-roll/Count-in with the cursor staying in place on the sequencer until recording starts like other daws? That would definitely allow the MPC software to record properly and be in sync within Reaper.

Another user has the same issues as posted in the bug report forum...

Thanks in advance!

Yes, it would be great, for example when you did a field recording (each time you pressed "play" on your Zoom, it creates a cue marker visible in Reaper but not editable).

And the opposite would be useful as well, for example if you wish to use an external wav editor that reads cue markers after having edited the file with take markers in Reaper.

Hello,
I am not sure that the small issue is related to the very latest release, but I think my post can belong in this thread.

When rendering audio using wildcards and primary/secondary render formats, the wildcard name is not changed for the secondary output format.

For instance :
- I have the primary output format setup as WAV.
- I have the secondary output format setup as FLAC.
- I put a "$format" wildcard in the render name

=> I expect to have one file named "my track-WAV", and another file named "my track-FLAC", right ?
Instead, i have two files named "my track-WAV" (while one is in WAV and the other one in FLAC).

So could the wildcard follow the second output format as well as the first one ?

Thank you !

Hi sink! Did you test this with the current prerelease build?

Hi, Schwa !
No, i tried with latest "official" 6.07 release.
I'm going to test with latest prerelease, and let you know about it.

(By the way, may I dare to bump this feature request ? It seems to be a tiny one (technically speaking), but it would have ahuge impact on my workflow...)

Would it be possible to have an option to keep itemFX while dynamic splitting it?

This is quite super-cool

But, please, how to change pattern number in the new "recording modes"?

There are two new modes for MIDI Trigger: "Off (Always Recording)" and "Off (Always Recording + Toggle Notes)" both are of Off-type, so MIDI input cannot be used for transposing/restarting but even for changing pattern number.
Even if quite understand technical problems like that megababy's grid can have non-continuous "range" of active note numbers like drum kit and can go from C-2 to C9, so there is complication to set range for transposing and pattern change, of course.
But without pattern change it is really not complete. So how to add more modes with this support or at least how to switch MIDI Trigger parameter by MIDI (internally, not "MIDI Learn" way) live?

Otherwise it's amazing addition, so, please, let's make it complete

Note: And I have to say "Always Recording + Toggle Notes" mode is so nice, thanks


EDIT: OK, trying it with ReaControlMIDI it somehow works using parameter modulation of "MIDI Trigger" parameter, but it would be better to have it available as a another mode (mainly pattern change, so we can record, switch pattern record another one etc.).

No Featurerequest, unless they are directly linked to pre-release featureadditions/changes.
Use the Feature request forums, please.

Has something changed in the audio engine on OSX ?
In loop mode, first note on first bar a the midi clip is chopped as if sound attack was cut.
