This is correct! No Python required, you can thank Tim for putting up with my nagging for the past 2 days while I tried to get C++ and the extension source code going on my computer, haha...

Almost forgot about this since so far I only used it for Mdi.
But yeah, it works for Audio items too.

Sure! I cover it in the last video but a text explanation is worth having here for sure, meant to do it originally!



Trigger Pad: This is a leading pad added to the beginning of each chunk and subtracted from the end of the previous chunk. The snap offset is adjusted to compensate so that your media will still snap to the transient. It is a sort of safety buffer. Imagine you have a section where the snare and ride hits at the same time, but the ride is a tiny bit early. Dynamic split cut at the snare transient though for one of a variety of reasons. This buffer would ensure that the ride transient is preserved directly before the snare and that it is cut out of the previous item. It basically just lets you be lazier when checking the quality of your splits

Crossfade Length: This is the length of the crossfade created between the tail of any item and the beginning of the next item. It is always placed to the left and is in addition to any trigger pad (ie. a trigger pad of 5ms and a crossfade length of 5ms will result in a minimum of 10ms between the start of the crossfade and the transient in the next item.)

Maximum Gap: This is the maximum allowable gap before the code attempts to time stretch the previous item. If you set a max gap of 20ms and the code detects a gap of 50ms, it will timestretch the previous item until either a) the gap has been reduced to 20ms, or b) the Maximum Stretch value has been reached. If the detected gap is less than the Maximum Gap, the following item is simply trimmed back to fill it with no stretching applied whatsoever.

Maximum Stretch: This is the maximum amount that an item will stretch. The value corresponds with the "Rate" value displayed in a media item when timestretching it, so 0.85 means the item will stretch to a maximum rate of 0.85 In my experience, it usually sounds better to allow more stretching than it does to allow a larger Maximum Gap, so don't be afraid to set this value low. A value of 0 will let the item stretch as much as it needs to while a value of 1 will disable stretching entirely.

Preserve Transient: This is the amount of the item you want to prevent from stretching no matter what. Stretching the initial attack of a media item usually sounds poor, so this will prevent that initial attack from stretching and only stretch the tail of the item. If this is set to 35ms for example, a split is placed 35ms after the transient and only the item to the right of the split will be stretched, leaving the initial attack untouched. A value of 0 disables this function completely. The default value of 35ms is usually pretty good.

Transient Crossfade Length: This is simply the length of the crossfade used when splitting at the "Preserve Transient" point.

Fade Shape: This determines the shape of the fades used when performing any crossfades. It is an integer from 0 to 5, the following chart explains which is which.

Just an idea Adam, it would be great once this is tested properly and you're satisfied with it, if you could do a new Drum Editing thread in tips and tricks with links to the videos etc...and including your slip-editing tutorials as well? I have a feeling this thread will blow well out, and that'll save reading through multiple pages to get the gist, you could keep it all in your first post, and then just update that when you find new situations for it. And I guess other people can add to that in subsequent posts.

This info is just too valuable to let sink, it needs to be stickied somewhere and included in the manual and wiki...and perhaps on the DUC forum.

Thanks again man!

Hey Adam, should that only create crossfades? I found a situation while testing where it created a fadeout/in instead because the last overlap was created 5ms early, just using the default settings on the demo.

I saved an .rpp, if you run the action you'll see what happens at marker #2.

One thing i mentioned earlier, was the ability to choose between time stretch and reverse. "Reverse" would extend drum hits by adding a reversed copy right at the end of a chop, rather than time stretch them.

I get a crossfade? Settings are 5, 5, 15, 0.5, 35, 5, 0. Can you provide your settings and a screenshot with "Show overlapping items in lanes" turned on?

http://screencast.com/t/fxvKBAGIxfmb

EDIT: Got it, the culprit is having default item fades enabled and have it automatically create a crossfade when splitting. For now, make sure default fades are disabled when running the action. I'll try and figure out a solution in the mean time.



EDIT 2: Fixed it, you guys just have to wait until Tim uploads a new build! Sorry Tim!

EDIT 3: And the new build is up, Bevoss grab it and let me know how it works for you now. And donate some money to Tim

Can you explain this a little more? So say I have item 1 and item 2 chopped and gridded, you would fill the gap with a new item that had a reversed copy of item 1 in it? Screenshots would be helpful so I can figure out if this is something I can add!

I think that's what he means yeah. It's the same thing Recycle does when you stretch a sliced loop in it.

You guys work fast! All working now crossfade-wise, but I think there might be another problem:

Same rpp I sent you, when you run the action now, the crossfades are fine...but, do you end up with 2 huge empty items to the right of marker 2? I don't get that running the quick crossfade action, just the advanced one (same settings as you listed).

Sorry for finding more bugs!

Well the items are all offline so I can't tell but I am confident I know why...

Likely the items on the right of the marker do not have enough hidden material available to be trimmed. And you probably have "loop item source" turned off? So when you extend the start of an unlooped item that doesn't have enough material available to trim, it "loops" but because looping is disabled, everything past the loop point is blank and the source gets moved to the left of the loop point... Make sense? Posting from my phone otherwise I would post a vid or screenies

Or maybe I'm totally wrong and it's another problem, hehe... I should change it though so that it checks to see if there is enough material available for it to trim. For drum editing and stuff that shouldn't really happen because everything is part of one giant source file, but people trying to use it for other purposes are gonna have weird issues like that :/

Edit: actually hmm, if the quick one works but not the advanced one I don't know. Can you upload a zip with an RPP and some small audio files so I can really see whats happening?

It's solo-small.ogg from the Brad Sux demo, I just grabbed the first file I could find on my net machine to test if the new actions worked, nothing too sensible though(!)...it probably works fine on the expected drum material.

edit: Arghh forget that, I was testing the last thing with the media offline too ('cause I'd moved the rpp to the desktop), it only names those items empty for some reason in this situation...tried the original rpp with media online, everything ends up as expected...my bad.

Is there any way of improving Reaper's dynamic-split feature?
Also, is there a way I can auto-quantise using a percentage slider through some extension or something?

1. No, it's not perfect but it's usually ok if the material is defined enough. Here's a trick I've been using...

When making the stereo stem to split from, only use the tracks you want referenced of course. Usually just kick/snare/toms. What I do though as well, is throw Trigger/apTrigga on every track triggering a TINY little "blip" sample, and tweak Trigger until it is catching 99% of the hits properly for every drum. Now render the stem track with Trigger on, and you will end up with a stereo stem full of just tiny "blips". Dynamic split will catch all those 100% perfectly, since there is no bleed whatsoever and the transients are extremely defined.

So use these stereo trigger mix as your split source so Reaper has something really obvious to detect the transients from. It sounds like a lot more work than it is, it honestly takes 5 minutes and you only do it once, then print the stem track and you're done for the whole song, you don't have to print them section by section.

2. As I understand it Fingers' Groove Extension provides this functionality even for audio files, but it's Windows only so I haven't been able to test.

FWIW, I just edited a drum track that would've taken me 2+ hours slip editing in about 40 minutes using the Trigger trick to create my stem, then splitting in huge sections, quantizing and filling with my script. It's so bloody fast, I love it

Cheers Adam, I'll try that.
Just wondering if I missed your macro for "quick quantize" anywhere? I'd rather not have to pop up the quantize dialog, just click and have the selected items quantize to the current grid setting. Cheers!

yeah, a reverse copy of the sample is pasted in right at the end of the original- it has to be sample accurate to avoid clicks.

this is a collection of custom actions that i made to do it, its a little clunky but its quicker than doin each reverse individually, expeciialy when you've got loads of hits.

Run or Assign key command to "Custom: sample reverse new (Copy)" - all the other custom actions are just to make the main action work.

at the moment you have to use it at the start of the track. It uses sws fade A to apply fades at the end of each copy - to compensate for the rise in volume as the peak of the reverse hit approaches.

It just gets better!

Adam, would you be able to upload your 'blip' sample? Or is it a setting on Trigger that does it? Cheers.

My old 'Drum Overview' macro automates the rendering part, assuming the tracks are in a folder and you have soloed the tracks to render, you just select the folder track and run it (mapped to Ctrl-Alt-F10 as is). It renders a post-fader stem (so you can use the folder fader to control the waveform size), mutes it, and groups it with all the child tracks of that folder.

Speeds up the process slightly...

Speeds up the process slightly...
Ooo nice this is great!

Here's the blip sample: http://www.adamwathan.com/reaper/trigblip3.wav

All it is is a short sine wave at 1600hz with a fadeout applied to it, hehe

Thanks Adam!

You might find these short samples useful too, one is Pipe's old blipper sample, the other is a one click sample provided by Art Evans...good for testing some things, I use it to align reamp tracks.

Awesome stuff, thanks again!

Adam, just want to say that I'm not currently in a position where I would use this because I don't record/mix live bands (yet... maybe... we'll see), however despite that, I'm in awe of this contribution. I can tell that I'll come back here and thank you a million times if/when I am working on something that could take advantage of this.

I believe this thread needs to be a permanent sticky. WAY too much great info for it not to be...

Thanks guys.

Anybody have any ideas for improvement? I was considering today revamping it slightly in such a way that it automatically places a marker anywhere where it had to do anything extreme to fill the gap so you know to listen for a bad edit.

For example, if the max stretch value was reached and it had to fill a big gap, there is a good chance it will probably create an audible artifact, so I could have it place a marker at that location so that after filling you can easily identify which spots to listen to and double check.
