Default Autopunch Time Selection

I was having an issue while recording multiple takes using the autopunch time selection mode. By pre-rolling 4 measure before my time selection I was able to get in the groove before the punch occurs. However, on the next take it returns immediately to the beginning of the time selection making it extremely difficult to be on time for the next take.

So I was checking out some of Kenny’s videos and discovered the loop selection can be different than the timeline selection when punching in. I setup my loop range and time selection ranges and recorded multiple takes no problem. Selected my next loop region and time selection for the punches but this time, in addition to recording multiple takes where I wanted them it also recorded some takes starting at the loop point and stopped randomly before the time selection point. Any ideas what might be causing this issue?

Reaper doesn't do pre-roll like I expect so I rolled my own. Here are my 3 punch in scripts attached. Adjust them for the amount of pre-roll and post-roll you want.





For this one it's going to time select an area up to and past your last media item so I just put a filler item at the end of the song so it works.



Punch in time selection.......

Thanks for this. I have yet to create any custom actions but thanks for sharing your approach.
