Question: It seems you didn't give that lady a chance, the performance is not terrible, first minute is stage fright. But seeing how you treat people on the forums it seems you can't really hold your focus for too long. The forum is starting to look as bunch of people trying to please devs so they keep releasing updates they are so addicted to. Don't you feel it's time you put REAPER to rest and start with something new in life? Things die, it's normal

Question: Is there a name for the shape of the REAPER logo? Is it supposed to resemble a guitar pick? It's almost a reuleaux triangle, but a lot more rounded.

    I should ask White_Tie that -- it is meant to be similar to a guitar pick, and a shield... I think

Question: I've been using Winamp for years, and just recently switched from ProTools to Reaper as my main DAW... and I found out yesterday that you created both! That being said, I mostly just wanted to say thanks for making great software, but I also have many questions... picking one for now that hopefully hasn't been asked a thousand times already: 1. What are some oops! entry was too long... 1. What are some coding projects you started and never finished, if any, for whatever reason? (lost interest in the idea, found an existing solution elsewhere, etc.)

    Various things, nothing terribly interesting though. Mostly just give up out of laziness, where the benefit doesn't justify the work required...

    Yeah it's pretty depressing. I installed it on an old laptop to test some live looper stuff, and it works well, except for when it decides to do a bunch of updating crap (interrupting the audio). And there's no way to know when to do it. The answer: keep the network disabled, ugh.

Question: Please, look at oscii-bot again or, even better, at celphor's fork, that supports SYSEX messages. His fork is crashing on Windows 7/10 64 bit (both 32 and 64 bit versions). SYSEX is crucial to send feedback from Reaper to my controller's LCD screen. Without this I won't be able to complete my midi2osc script. I've asked several guys to test if this error rep

Question: If I want to make an effects box like a contemporary Jesusonic, should I learn how to program dedicated DSP chips like Blackfin, or will x86 work fine?
Asked by Roland (68.98.229.x) on November 14 2016, 3:04am
Reply on November 14 2016, 3:13pm:
    Either way, DSPs are probably cheaper/use less power..but x86 has PLENTY of power :)
