The "list" view is blank except for the text for Add, Delete and List in the latest version. Although files are loaded (I can trigger them in the main view) none show up in the list page which remains blank (only the three button texts described above). I just confirmed that everything in the list view worked fine as of pre3a.

If there's plugin love in the air, ReaFIR could use some. It could be such an awesome plugin if it were just a bit more user friendly...

Just sayin.

Is this ramping up to have REAPER included with several GB of sample bloat?

think this should be scaled better so that all lines and points stay visible. also, kinda weird visually that "r" isn't attached to the line.

overall love it, things i've always thought it should have!

Is anyone else having problems with the "list" view? I am definitely having a serious graphical error with it (described above and seen below) as of pre4. If I go back to pre3a everything looks great so I'm pretty sure it's not a change I made here between installs.

I'm using Windows 8.1 64bit and Reaper 64bit.


There are 28 audio files loaded into RS5K in this screenshot...although you'd never know it.

Well, I see the possibillity for a ReaDrums/perc/metronom 3rd party bundle.

BTW: How would RS5k handle zipped presets and samples (unzipped)?
How's the find missing samples options?

Maybe I'm missing something (quite likely) but does it do multiouts? If not, maybe not all that useful as a drum multisampler. If so, pardon the ReaTard.

Random Observation: It seems almost pointless to me for the RSM browse button to open an OS file dialog that doesn't have any way to preview samples before loading. Imo, the button might as well not even be there. Instead, maybe it should just open the media browser where you can audition sample before loading into RSM? Or have a custom dialog there with preview ability.

This is what I'd typically expect from any dialog in any audio workstation that loads sounds or samples from a dialog, a way to preview the files you're about to load in the dialog...



This is what I get in Reaper, the standard OS dialog with no way to preview anything... so it might as well just open the media browser in this case...

Yes, I know you can do that from the media browser. Thanks.

I was only touching on the relative non-usability of the "browse" button in general, to browse audio in a dialog in any case without the ability to preview it, which is kind of pointless when you really think about it.

And (as you stated earlier) the browse button also recalls the directories of loaded samples which I don't know if the media browser will do with RSM. Anyway, more of an observation if not a common expectation, to be able to preview audio in any file dialog like that in a workstation.

Thanks Justin.

The Browse button could come with a warning.

Ever since that big, awesome, exciting MIDI overhaul a couple months back, every update has been a major yawn-fest.

Although bugfixes are necessary and nice, ReaSamplomatic features are definitely not exciting.

Here's to hoping for another round of exciting feature updates like Stretch Markers and the big MIDI overhaul. Maybe we'll get some longstanding often-requested features like automation clips.

I guess the devs have to take a breather from big tough stuff and work around on twiddling around with things nobody cares about once in a while, simply to recover from all of the work.

Thank you very much argee. You thought I was kidding about doubting my own existence...

I must say I'm excited about these new RS5K updates. I used it for some footstep foley/sound design on a show last January and these updates will make it even more useful for these types of things. Some might say it's a niche tool but it will certainly fill that niche quite well with the new features.

+1000 improving whats already in reaper is way more important than adding a bunch of new features that bring new bugs on top of old ones...the Reasamplomatic updates are welcome and needed.

Agreed

Been with reaper long enough to know that "small follows big" and wouldn't have it any other way!

No point building a dam out of massive boulders if you don't fill in the gaps in between them!

Some of the things your yawning at have had a long time coming too and are actually exciting to people other than yourself.

Agree. It's Reaper's only really usable instrument so any push to improve it is time very well spent imo.

I do - very respectfully - think Justin maybe does Reaper a tiny disservice by not using other products though as the workflow for some of this stuff like RSM could be (imo, mmv) easily improved in some ways, by copying some better general workflow methods.

But it's shaping up to be a really usable stereo sample player. Given what appears to be it having really low resource overhead, if it could import Kontakt files... man... that would be a really big plus.

This maybe might - in the dreams of the few - lead to a GM set with RSM instances, to load a midi file and do like Cubase used to do with Halion One, open a midi file and load each midi track with an RSM instance with the optional Cockos GM sample set package.

a simple midi change that might be useful to some of us using kontakt.

One thing I've noticed with big libraries like LA strings is that they tend to use channel 16 if you want to play the whole instrument and not just a few of the components.

To do this I set the midi input on the TCP to also "map input to channel" 16 which is great as I don't have to change it on the midi keyboard.

The one change I would love to see is that on first opening the midi editor for this track I would love reaper to auto set any newly created notes to the same channel as what's in that input box so I don't accidentally draw notes in on channel 1

Would anyone else find this small change useful?

Extreme disagree!
ReaSamplomatic5000 is the best sampler when you have to handle many samples in different tracks (or even stacks of them, using multiple reasamplomatic) and you dont wanna blow up the CPU usage by using NI samplers (that are good, but not so fast to use and when you open 1 window you fuck up your screen estate).

This Soundfont player no longer works in Reaper. "Insufficient Memory".

Works fine in 4.40 with the same reaper song...

Looks like you're using sfz in "SF32" mode. Does it work if you click on the little mode dropdown on the sfz interface and change it to PR32 before loading the soundfont? I think the former tries to load the whole soundfont straight into RAM and the latter streams from disk as needed.

Check out the sfz manual:

If that's not the issue, feel free to just ignore me

Kontakt is actually VERY optimized w.r.t. CPU use, but yes, it does have additional RAM overhead because of the whole GUI etc.

Hi ED, I don't think ReaSamplOmatic streams from disk does it. If not then I would think Kontakt would be more efficient in the long run or at least as far as RAM is concerned.

Or is that not right, if anybody knows you do.

Anyway, being able to pull up kit-pieces for a fragment of cpu
is very handy. I don't see myelf using Kontakt for e.g. only a meteronom.

RS5k has grown up a lot while i've been in Greece. thanks for quietly fixing the parameter-focus stealing issue, too!

i spent some time looking around, but i still haven't figured out if this is possible. please tell me i'm missing something:

1- drag media item into sequencer
2- slice away to make many items
3- highlight all items
4- import them into RS5K and have them triggered by incremental midi notes

essentially you're setting up slice zones in REAPER and blasting them out to RS5k instance(s) with less clickety click

it's like the velocity layering addition, but horizontally instead of vertically if you follow my jetlagged brain

Is Reasamplomatic going to have a round/random robin ability? Does it have one already? I see a bunch of updates and maybe this feature was thrown in somewhere discretely... but without this feature, it's still just a toy.
