That being said, RPP files that are created/edited in a normal Reaper configuration will work in this and vice versa. It's only a workflow thing.

Ok, ready to give this a try...are there any step by step instructions on how it installs, runs or whatever else I need to do to get it running...
I am trying this on linux so I'll obviously make adjustments where necessary |

You preferably make a clean portable install
You dragNdrop the config file on Reaper's gui like you would for any media file. Follow the instructions on screen. When installed, the first window is to open an RPL file. There's a read me file in the Dropbox folder. I have yet to make you tube videos. Sorry still trying to find time with OBS to do it... Watch my YouTube video in the first post to get an overview.

Creating a portable version on a USB drive, it's what you recommended...

Ah sorry I did not understand before.
A Reaper "portable" install does not need to be on a USB drive. They call it "portable" simply because it is in a separate folder with its own configuration. You can freely put it on your local drive no problem. (That's what I do anyways.)

Thanks - is the best way to learn what is happening and how to use it to look at the video link from the first post?
I see there is no actual manual |

Question: Can the playlist sidebar be resized? So the slots are bigger...I am planning on using a touchscreen monitor for this and I'll be selecting them with a finger haha!
Unless of course I can select them via a mid program change (or a CC message??) from an external device?? |

Not resizable for now.
You can assign the commands to change tabs to your midi controller I could add midi program change or midi notes in the near future, if you're willing to test it for me. I need time to make videos and/or document. For now, you can make me a list of Questions I could answer.

Ok I have something that I believe works with Program Changes they are not MIDI learnable. Your controller must be able to send from (0-127)
I could hard program an offset but that's it for now. Let me know.

Cool, yeah I'll probably do it from the iPad via bluetooth...still working out routings etc...among other stuff (I'm in four bands and a solo act) with which I get pretty busy...this particular project is mostly for solo work.
Appreciate the effort there! Do I download another "drag and drop" zip to get these new functions? Happy to test it out, just not sure of time-frame, still got to convert Sonar projects - I was on it, but got sidetracked, haha! You know how it is |

Ok try it out now.
I've added actions to select tabs by numbers. You have to assign them individually to your Program Change Controller. Sorry API limitation. Remember that for all of this to work, you must always use the "Realive_" actions in the action list. I promise to do a video very soon!

I get an error when starting a fresh reaper portable install including sws:
"Realive_MainAPI.lua:2772: attempt to call a nil value (field 'JS_Window_FindChildByID')"

JS and SWS are necessary.

yep but I don't really know how to start here. The windows always resizes when opening another song in the project list. How to route between songs and audio tab? I'm using reaper professionally in the studio and I'm thinking about which DAW (Ableton, Bitwig or Reaper) to choose live for my band for playbacks and additional FX. Realive seems to suite my needs quite well but everything needs to be super clear for me to be able to trust a piece of software during live usage. I think some kind of video tutorial could spread the word as this beautiful piece is something many people could need I think!

I know, I've been wanting to do vids for a while now but I never get to it.
In the dropbox folder there is a read me file that will get you started. I'll do my best to do a vid asap. For now, know that the audio is already routed to the Audio Routing tab automatically using Reaper's Audio loopback Hidden feature. The main song template is already setup to communicate with it. You put your track directly in each folder and they'll be routed to the according track in the Audio Routing tab on the left. Remember the letter "U" which is the main way to switch between live and edit view. To setup a song, you need to enter markers in your song simply by hit "ctrl-m" and naming the markers. On Mac and enter "?" to get a cheat sheet for markers name. Once you're done making all the markers, In the main toolbar, you hit "Conductor Track" and choose "Generate structure track..." This will setup the whole thing. The read me file will help you with all the commands. No matter what you do, use the "Realive" actions in the action list for play, stop, loop etc... There is a lot of under the hood stuff going on. And like everything else in Reaper, when in doubt, right click on it! If you know Reaper well, I garantee you, this is the most solid/flexible live playback you could use. You can inbox me if you'd like a one on one training session to get started.

ok thanks! I'll try to find my way through it. Looks quite promising as I said! If I don't get it, I'll get in contact after my holidays. Perhaps just one thing: Why does reaper/realive always resize when loading a new song or the audio routing project in the playlist? (I'm on a 4k monitor). It only happens if I click the project in the playlist. If I just change tabs, everything stays where it should.

That’s a feature.
To always have it fullscreen while working. I could make an enable/disable if you’d like? Does it resize out of your screen?

Oh wow.
I don’t have a 4K screen so I don’t know. I’ll look into it later.

Ok I looked it up a bit, but it's hard for me to know without a screen capture or anything.
Tell me what you use to change tabs asides from the project tab list. The Realive actions? or the native actions? The whole thing works with 5 screensets. (From screenset #1 to screenset #5). So for each of them, try: 1- Load it 2- Resize it to the full size 3- Save it Then see if it behaves properly.

You need js API and sws installed.
Edit: What date was on the reaperconfig you used? I added an automatic JS install maybe it didn't work?

You make sure the most recent JS_API version is in the "User Plugins" folder

If you did a working portable install, and you install this in that portable install, I don’t see how the config could’ve overwritten the main install. In your reaper resource path,there’s a “previous config folder”. Maybe You could retrieve your configuration from there.

But it was because I made a mistake during the installation. For Windows there is an easy way to do an portable installation. For mac this is not clear. You have to do more than just create a separate folder. At this point I realize that installation instructions are urgently needed. Or a couple of tutorials/ videos. |
