There's an issue in instantiating VST3 version of HALion 6 - GUI size is not recognized correctly, so some parts are cut off. I need to force reloading a screenset (HALion's screenset, not Reaper's) to make it work. VST2 version is fine.

Thanks for the extra subproject goodies. Much appreciated!

+ FX: add support for assigning shortcuts to show/insert specific FX

Any info on this? Sound pretty cool!

Go to FX browser and right-click on any plugin to "Create shortcut".

It would be cool to cycle through FX, if there are more instances.

Since they are anyway stored in reaper-fxoptions.ini there is no way to know what FX assigned to shortcut. Probably is a good idea to merge that list with reaper-kb.ini (with a dedicated keyword for example) and display associated shortcut in action list like. Or leave it as is but merge internally in ActionList so use can sort all shortcuts to overview what already mapped:

Mappings in reaper-kb.ini are generally portable between different machines, the new FX shortcuts are generally not, that's why they are stored in separate places.

Essentially, there are 100 generic actions to insert/display an FX, and reaper-fxoptions.ini maps those actions to specific plug-ins. We could list the generic actions in the actions list as "Insert/display FX slot 1" or something, if that was useful. Or, actually, we could list them with meaningful FX names, but that's a separate issue from putting the data in reaper-kb.ini.

Nice idea, but if you attempt to add a shortcut for a selected fx but then decide to cancel, the fx is still added to "reaper-fxoptions.ini" and the FX context menu changes and shows 'Edit/Delete shortcut' options for that fx even though a shortcut was never set for it, maybe just a tad confusing?

The feature would really be nice if we could tell it which slot # to add the fx to the chain, even if it was just a first or last slot option .

in version 5.76pre1 if you change the position of the play cursor during playback, on the synthesizers from the arpeggio the notes hang. In versions 5.70 and 5.75, there is no such problem.

Ah right, my bad. Then yes, it is pretty enough to list mapped FX shortcuts in Action List.

Hi guys, thanks for all the work with Subprojects.

A HUGE use-case I see for this, is for Film. The workflow I'd envision:

1. Create Project
2. Import Video
3. Create Subproject for a cue
4. Double-click on Subproject to edit it
***5. The VIDEO be visible and time-linked to the subproject! Create cue time-linked to the master video.
5. Return to main project, create other cues as Subprojects


As seen in Step 5, I'd propose that Video tracks have permanence across all Subprojects, allowing you to create your cues to a master video file. It's so close to having this functionality already!

Also related to Film (which we're Super excited about seeing Reaper approaching Cubase on!)...

FR: Project Settings / Set x:xx to Edit Cursor --- add option to Set Timecode At Edit Cursor


This would allow synchronization between the Timecode ruler and actual burn-in timecode on the video.

Last idea for Film:

FR: Option to Start New Measure at Cursor.

For creating cues at hitpoints (ie. start a measure at the exact moment an explosion occurs) you'd want a measure to start at that exact moment. Other than messing with tempo ramps to estimate the measure start time, I can't see any other way to achieve this (extremely common and important) task when creating music for film.

"SWS/BR: Move closest measure grid line to mouse cursor (perform until shortcut released)"


Basically warp grid. http://wiki.cockos.com/wiki/index.ph..._grid_with_SWS

With the option enabled "Combine all MIDI CC data in the first line", Reaper ignores the first recorded controller, and displays the velocity.

Yes, PDC doesn't work in the above case in 5.75.

Does this release solve the hanging note issue with some plugins ?
because 5.75 did not.

regarding 5.76 pre1, fx shortcuts:

FX shortcuts are not working on FX Chains.

Another observation: shortcut opens only one version of FX on track. What if I want two instances of the same plugin?

I have an idea(Feature request): press the button to insert plugin and hold for some time (custom value) to show(cycle through).

I quite like that FX shortcuts opens the plugin if it's already inserted. For example i put it on my go-to Equalizer and i can use the shortcut to insert, or if exists, open it on any channel.

This raises two requests:

Currently the shortcut ignores offline FX.
It would be great if pressing the shortcut would check if there is already an offline instance, and instead of inserting a new one, it would put the existing online. This would work great with existing templates, where i have already set up the FX, and just have put them offline for resource management.

If FX instance already open, pressing the shortcut again could toggle the window

But ofcourse a preference checkbox for "Fx shortcuts can open multiple instances" would be best. In that case both the above mentioned functions would be skipped.

Not sure how you'd expect that to really work. There is an action to toggle the fx window or all plugins windows.

But actions do need more 'if x is in focus' options :P

Currently the FX shortcut creates the FX on the last clicked track.
If you press the shortcut again, instead of creating one, it finds the existing, and opens the GUI instead.

I would expect it this way:

You press the FX shortcut, and finds the plugin already inserted

is the GUI open?
NOT: current behaviour, opens GUI
YES: closes GUI

I just imagine working fast that way. I want to quickly change some eq on a vocal. I don't even have to leave the arrange view, just press the FX shortcut, tweak the eq, press the shortcut again, window gone. I know i can always just close it manually, but sounds quicker to me.

This is pretty cool, but there's a few things that could make it a lot more useful:

-Ability to assign shortcuts to particular fx presets or chains
-An option to add the fx to all selected tracks (or items depending on context) instead of just the last touched one
-Separate actions/shortcuts for show and insert so that we can add more than one instance of a plugin to a track/item.
-An option for the "show" action to show that plugin in a floating window instead of showing the whole fx chain
-Some sort of logic for cycling through multiple instances of a plugin when using the show action

There is an issue : after using one time the shortcut, I have to select again the item or the track if I want to use again a shortcut inside the same place.

Is it possible to use a shortcut inside a track FX if we put the mouse cursor on the track (actually it's only possible inside the track panel) ?

Same thing if we put the mouse cursor on the FX Window (for the track or item) ?

Thx you.
