Hey all, since moving from Cubase to Reaper, I was still missing some crucial functions for my work. I messed around a bit with ReaScript and added everything that was missing for me. New scripts will be added over time.
The script are available via my ReaPack repository:
Code:
https://github.com/StephanRoemer/ReaScripts/raw/master/index.xml
Most of my scripts consist only of a couple of lines of code, because the rely on a function file. These are available as a so called "bundle".
They are tailored that way, that you can easily adjust parameters yourself. E.g. if you are missing a
Delete CC32 you can easily edit a Delete CC script and only adjust the
dest_cc variable in the script and save it as Delete CC32. Same goes for the quantize script. You can adjust the grid, humanize factor, swing off/on and swing amount.
Also for
Add VSTi and replace existing VSTi you need to install "Add or replace VSTi".
Be sure to select it in ReaPack, if you want to use these scripts. As with the MIDI scripts, you can easily modify them by changing the variables.

Select notes after edit cursor (in selected item(s) or MIDI editor)
Select notes before edit cursor (in selected item(s) or MIDI editor)
Delete notes before edit cursor (in selected item(s) or MIDI editor)
Delete notes after edit cursor (in selected item(s) or MIDI editor)
- select all notes, that are located before the edit cursor Position
- this script works in arrangement, MIDI Editor and Inline Editor
- for obvious reasons, this script only works with a single item and will popup a message box, if you have more than one item selected

Delete short notes- deletes leftover short notes, that are created, when splitting (on grid) notes that are not hard quantized (humanized)
- this script works in arrangement, MIDI Editor and Inline Editor
- adjust the length of shortnote in the user area. To get an idea which values are typical for short notes, enable the ShowConsoleMsg near the end of the script

Select, delete and move CCs
- these scripts select, delete and move CC in various ways
- these scripts work in arrangement, MIDI Editor and Inline Editor
2017-12-15
Transpose notes +/- X
- these scripts transposes either all notes or selected notes +/- X
- these scripts work in arrangement, MIDI Editor and Inline Editor
2017-12-15
Double Notes +/- X (formerly "Add notes")
- these scripts add to either all notes or selected notes +/- X
- these scripts work in arrangement, MIDI Editor and Inline Editor
2017-12-16
Increase / Decrease CC
- these scripts increase or decrease all CC events or selected CC events
- these scripts work in arrangement, MIDI Editor and Inline Editor
2017-12-17
Quantize and Human quantize notes (straight, triplets, swing)- these scripts human quantize either all notes or selected notes by their respective values
- these scripts work in arrangement, MIDI Editor and Inline Editor
- Keep in mind, with my commands not being native Reaper quantize commands, you cannot restore their initial position with "unquantize"
- The quantize "grid" commands use the project grid to quantize and NOT the MIDI Editor grid
2017-12-18
Set edit cursor to first / last note in selected items
- these scripts set the edit cursor to the beginning of the first and the ending of the last note in an selected item
- these scripts work in arrangement, MIDI Editor and Inline Editor
2017-12-19
Select CCs within boundaries of selected notes
- these scripts select all CCs within the boundaries of selected notes
- execute again to toggle selection
- these scripts work in arrangement, MIDI Editor and Inline Editor

Add VSTi and replace existing VSTi
- this script adds a VSTi instance in FX slot 1
- if there is already a VSTi, it will be replaced by this one
- if there is no VSTi, this one will be added in FX slot 1. Existing insert FX will be moved down by one slot
- after loading the VSTi, the floating GUI will be shown
- in order to function correctly, the script expects only 1 VSTi on a track
Important notes: these scripts expect "Add or replace VSTi" to be installed on your system. Make sure you have checked it for installation in ReaPack.

Render VSTi items without track FX
- this script will render a VSTi item to audio, without applying the track FX
During rendering, the track FX will be bypassed, otherwise you would hear them twice (offline render
and realtime track FX). MIDI and audio items can live happy together on the same track.
This is especially useful, when you want to render a sound effect, loop, etc... to reverse the
audio or to apply take FX, fade curves...

2018-06-28
Nudge notes left or right by 10 ticks
- these scripts nudge either all notes or selected notes left or right by 10 ticks
- these scripts work in arrangement, MIDI Editor and Inline Editor

Change note length (mousewheel)
- this script changes the note length via mousewheel
- when there is no note selection, only the note under the mouse cursor is altered
- this script only works in the MIDI Editor

- this script only works in the MIDI Editor
2018-07-02
Move items to timecode (in filename)
- this script moves either all or selected items to their timecode position (written in the filename)
- the timecode needs to be in the format xx.xx.xx.xx (Windows does not allow : in filenames)
- this script is useful for audio formats, where Reaper can't read the BWF chunk (FLAC for example)
2018-07-12
Change note position to grid(mousewheel)
- this script changes the note position (based on the grid, if snap in the MIDI editor is turned on) via mousewheel
- for the time being, you have to link the grid in the MIDI editor with the arrangement grid, will try to find another way to solve this
- if snap is turned off, it works the same as "Change note position (mousewheel)" script
- when there is no note selection, only the note under the mouse cursor is altered
- this script only works in the MIDI Editor
2018-07-12
Move notes to the edit cursor (relative)- this script moves all selected notes to the edit cursor and keeps their relative offsets
- when the mouse hovers a note, the hovered note is used as offset instead
- this script only works in the MIDI Editor
