Question: Does REAPER perform well on PPC (G4/G5) machines? I wish was able to test drive it on the latest Power8. Do you favor a particular CPU? Anyway, thanks for all the latest goodness. Asked by gio (79.131.32.x) on August 30 2013, 1:01am Reply on August 30 2013, 1:17am: The quad core i7 in my retina MBP is incredible. REAPER is pretty miserable on G4s, and barely tolerable on G5s. Comment... Question: that was a hell of a release mate. why it took so long? Asked by gio (79.131.32.x) on August 29 2013, 11:37pm Reply on August 30 2013, 12:59am: Probably the easiest explanation is that we started out not knowing exactly where we'd end up? That and other activities in our personal lives... Comment... Question: Should US and friends strike Syria?

Comment... Question: I was wondering... do you use Amazon S3 or EBS (or something else)?

Question: Need to find out when reaper finished loading (including any startup project if they are set) and it seems SaveExtensionConfig gets called twice with isUndo = true. First just when loading start, and then again when loading finishes. Is it safe to use that (wait for a second call to SaveExtensionConfig to conclude loading finished for good)? It seems a bit Asked by Martin (93.136.238.x) on August 11 2013, 3:25pm Reply on August 12 2013, 4:16pm: a bit hacky, but that's the only thing I managed to found (tried using GetCurrentProjectInLoadSave() but it doesn't work if called from another thread) (sorry for another lengthy 2part question) Hmm, loading state would be one way, but I dunno, what's the purpose of this? Also, anything from another thread is going to be tricky (and should probably be avoided if at all possible IMO)... Comment... Question: When was the most fun time of your life? Now? Winamp days? If you had to groundhog day it, when would it be? Asked by Will (70.173.150.x) on August 11 2013, 3:48am Reply on August 12 2013, 4:14pm (edited at August 13 2013, 6:15pm): Haha I dunno I think the days get better... if I had to pick a day, I don't know, that'd be tough as any day would get old eventually. Edit: my wife informs me that I've failed to answer the question. We had a discussion about it, then, and deciding that instead of groundhog day style, it would be just a good day that I would like to experience again. My mind mostly blanks. She described to me a day (which I remembered well enough, after she brought it up) that involved friends, food, drink, a warm backyard, and a cat. I'll go with that day. Comment...
