Question: Hey I am embarking on trying to develop a few of my own and I am wondering if there is any literature that I can review that will give me the basic idea for a shell and some examples of generic functions that daws carry out. What language should I use to develop this idea. I am hearing a lot about c++

    Make something you want to use! That's the only way I know how to do things... As far as languages go, I only have experience in writing this sort of application in C/C++, however it is probably possible in other languages depending on your requirements. Doing things with Javascript and various new web APIs would be fun (but would also rule out many things, so it might only be fun).

Question: ..."blurred" in context of talk beetween devsscripters (I don`t know how ofter or are you ever watching API requests, ex). "Ask Justin about REAPER" thread would be good in this case.

Question: Hello Justin. Since it is the only "direct" way to ask you (unfortunately!), I firstly thank you for your hard work. The question is what do think about coders who brings Reaper into another level of usability for users who can`t live using only native features. There aren`t so many people who developing cool things. Cockos forum is sooo "blurred" in context

Question: On the woodchuck thing. Do you agree that a wise woodchuck would be enterprising and wouldn't chuck wood but would have other woodchucks chuckin?

    depends, would a woodchuck chuck wood for fun or would it be for wood profit?

Question: Well, as one of the original four horsemen you know how cool p2p is, plus it would open the door to having a bunch of demos/whatever available without substantially increasing the numerals used in your S3 statements. We had a winter wonderland for two days here in Glasgow, it's all melted now but snowballs rock! :)
Asked by Paul (151.229.27.x) on January 19 2016, 11:37pm
Reply on January 20 2016, 2:00am:
    Well, keeping demos separate from our installers is important, why should every person downloading the installer (and updating) get a demo?

    As for distributing demos -- Amazon bandwidth, while expensive, just doesn't add up to that much. And when it does, we can move those things to cheaper pastures -- our videos page, for example, is hosted on cheaper bandwidth (but is still plenty fast!)

Question: Hi Justin. Do you know how much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?
Asked by IXix (86.168.176.x) on January 17 2016, 1:12pm
Reply on January 18 2016, 2:57pm:
    How would I know how much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck would want to chuck wood?

    as a side note it is difficult for me not to type "woodchunk" instead, strange.

Question: I've read that you're caring about the energy consumption of your computers. Are you even more into "sustainable" coding? It's just that especially computers and phones are not the best things to buy if you care about the environment. But you need them to test your software. What do you feel about that?

Reply on January 15 2016, 3:36pm:
    Yeah, I feel wasteful at times with all of these electronics. My newest computer is going on 4 years old, I think, most are quite a bit older. It's still too much crap, though.

    I improved some performance issues recently, and I have a branch that does some fun things with allowing you to shuffle samples, as well as copy/paste across channels (so you can sum multiple loops into a single one, etc), but not sure if I really like those changes... we'll see!
