Sorry I didn't chime in on the previous pre post...

Now that lines/curves have been added to MIDI CC lanes, just wondering why they behave differently from lines/curves in the track automation lanes?



In Track Automation Lanes, dragging follows the mouse exactly. If wanting to lock horizontal/vertical we use a Mouse Modifier. Perfection.

In MIDI CC lanes, by default we're locked either horizontal/vertical, with no option to unlock.

This is very clunky, and fundamentally different from the way we're so used to drawing lines/curves. Is there logic to this or is this still under development?

Only a small percentage of media items will have embedded transient information, so it doesn't seem worth it to add to the default context menu.

Ah, so this is NOT the same thing as slices in REX/ACID WAV/Apple Loops?

OK then, I'm getting some weird results.



On top is a REX loop loaded in "Beat slices that dynamically adjust to tempo changes" mode. On bottom is the same loop loaded ignoring embedded information, then running that new action. I'd expect the slices to match position?

(Also, I get the same result as the bottom track if I use the "A single loopable media item with transient markers" option. So, not all slices are shown there.)

For sure! https://drive.google.com/open?id=1Zu...GyePts4LVNZVgz

You can also use the acoustic guitar one I sent you in PM some days ago. That one is also misbehaving.

EDIT: Ah HA! Seems to happen with REX only. ACID WAV and Apple Loops are fine - transient guides match with the beat slices import!

Ah OK, fixing, thanks. (It works in +dev1104 if the project tempo is the same as the REX source tempo.)

Good afternoon.
I sent a request a year ago, and there was no reaction.
New features for spectral editing are needed to work.
https://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?t=212566
Please look and add in the new version ...

First of all, please add the ability to save presets.

REAPER very rarely crashes on me but it did this evening while using this pre-release version so I'm posting the crash report here in case it provides any info.

The crash happened while copying some item FX and pasting to some other selected items.

Happy Birthday, Evil's son!

Inside the Midi editor, is it possible to prevent one point ore more to move through an another point exactly like inside the automation envelope (consistency)?

Actualy, inside the midi editor, we can't handle very well the envelope when we want to create a vertical line.

CC MIDI (not expected and aleatory behaviour):


Automation envelope (expected behaviour):


Inside the automation envelope, it remains one issue: we can move more than one point through an another point. And it is accompanied by a strange and not expected behaviour. One point or more should not be able to move through an another point.

Agreed, there should be complete consistency between the CC envelopes and the Track envelopes, as I showed above also.

There should be no reason why they can't be the same -- if we're automating ReaControlMIDI to control CCs in the Track envelope and they work like other track envelopes, there's no reason why that consistency can't extend to CC envelopes. Just seems like a really bad idea for them to be different.

Which is the best way for a content creator like me to embed source media transient information to a file?

Not only for use in music sequencing but also for easier audiovisual syncing in post production.

ReCycle does that.

I was thinking more about a way to do it directly through REAPER. But that poses another question. Are the transient markers the same as common markers? If yes, then I guess a simple "goto next transient marker and put a marker" action would do the trick.

I was absolutely sure you knew!! I should have said that for now it appears only in the Actions.

You are a gentleman.

Thanks.

Reaper cannot create REX or ACIDized WAV or Apple Loops with slices as far as I know.

But maybe now that they have reversed the formats, they could do it? When rendering individual media items, there could be a checkbox to write transient guides as slice information, if the file format is WAV (for ACIDized) or AIFF (for Apple Loops). REX can only be created by ReCycle since that's how Propellerhead wants it.

I was having trouble with sluggish gui performance on my new macbook pro retina, and this update really did amazing things bringing sharp gui quality and much better performance! Thanks for that devs! I haven’t used pre releases like this one before, but i noticed that my favourite interface plugin ”fxlist” wouldn’t work. (https://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?t=210987)

Is this something common among pre-releases or is it up to the third party developer to update their plugin for the latest release? I’m hoping it will work by the time of the public release

Other than that no real bugs or crashes so far! Great work!

fxlist plugin works with latest +Dev version and macOS 10.13/14/15.
If you're on 10.15, check this thread: https://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?p=2192950

Yes, exactly that. Or just another option in the render dialog to export transient guides as markers in some automatic way, writing them as "transient_001, transient_002, ... , transient_00N".

In games it could be useful to use them for guiding animations, particle physics and other events, without spending the extra CPU to process the audio through FFT, etc. Fabric game audio engine already supports markers and sends triggers to the rest of the game engine it is used. So for game audio, markers would do it as well.
