Most recently, for some crazy good ReaScripts...

Question:
I7 4790k, 5820k or 6700k? Would any of those make a palpable difference in REAPER for mixing large projects? Considering the motherboard, ram and interface are a good. Thanks for the DAW!

Reply on February 17 2016, 10:23pm:
I'm sure any would be great! I find myself hesitant to upgrade as making sure things work well on the low end is also a priority... but any i7 these days will crush it.

Question:
If you had to get a job and you had two choices: working for Jobs or working for Musk, which would you choose and why?
Asked by Will (107.203.156.x) on February 13 2016, 10:05pm
Reply on February 15 2016, 6:56pm:
Depends on the job and corporate culture... but probably Musk. All of my friends have worked for Apple, it'd be a bit of sloppy seconds you know?

Question:
Do you follow offending threads on the Reaper forum? Do you ever consider the contents regardless of the offense?

Reply on February 13 2016, 3:17pm:
Hmm do you mean offensive threads? I try to avoid them.

Question:
I'm attempting to build a loop pedal with a cheap ARM/Debian computer. Any software recommendations, that would allow me to script recording/layering/playbacks? My first thought is to script against something like Audacity manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/scripting.html . Any thoughts are appreciated :)

Hmm not really, but I've been thinking about getting a RPI2 since ARMv7 would make a JSFX port somewhat doable (FPU and 16-bit constant loads)...

Justin, Recently a great service that allowed NHL fans to watch games anywhere, anytime, without blackouts was forced to shut down. Now us NHL fans are kinda screwed. I'm thinking of a way to help out a couple buddies who moved away from chicago watch the blackhawks. Whats the best way to stream the games for them. I know you has some involvement with NS

Question:
Apples. Red or green?
Asked by IXix (165.120.71.x) on February 6 2016, 8:19pm
Reply on February 6 2016, 9:51pm:
Green. Preferably not too green, Golden Delicious aren't green enough, Granny Smith too green. Mutsu is probably my favorite. I will also go on the red side too, though not Red Delicious, more like Pink Lady (though maybe they are a little too floral) or Gala.

Question:
Do you think you would have been able to start developing Reaper with the same business model if you were not already in such a comfortable financial situation?
Asked by Bernard (76.19.131.x) on February 5 2016, 5:21am
Reply on February 5 2016, 1:26pm (edited at February 5 2016, 1:28pm):
I think I would've needed (in addition to the will) about 18 months of room and board to do it. So yes, some level of independence would be required, but no -- "such a comfortable situation" not required.

Question:
Do you ever have programming dreams? I've had a couple and had to laugh at myself the next day.
Asked by IXix (165.120.70.x) on February 2 2016, 9:25pm
Reply on February 5 2016, 4:16am:
Not really, though I sometimes have music dreams where I come up with some progression that's so awesome it doesn't translate to reality.

Question:
Here's my issue: on a worldtrip, laptop is my DAW and a pair of HiFi headphones (have to be small enough). The low end on them is way too loud. Do you know of any Win program that runs in background and could apply an EQ on my output jack (onBoard sound)? If not, how hard would it be for a beginner to code one?
Asked by Albi (86.182.86.x) on February 1 2016, 9:26pm
Reply on February 2 2016, 3:58pm:
Could be an impedance issue... maybe get a headphone pre?
You could use REAPER's monitoring FX to EQ your mixes without having it be tied to the project... Hooking audio output is a pain.

Question:
Which is best? Programming, music, sleep or coffee?
Asked by IXix (109.152.64.x) on February 1 2016, 8:56pm
Reply on February 2 2016, 3:58pm:
All of the above, but if I had to give one up I would definitely not choose sleep.

Reply on February 2 2016, 4:00pm:
Hmm hard to say, I'm sure there are plenty out there (Ardour, for example), but there's probably so much code in there it would be overwhelming. Before I started REAPER I made a single-track effect processor called Jesusonic (or JSFX), then I made NINJAM which has much in common with a DAW (just a dynamic and synthesized arrange view, essentially), e.g. multi-track mixing. NINJAM is open source, you could look at it, might be helpful.

Have you ever checked skia graphics engine? What do you think about it, compared to let's say cairo or minimalistic lice? Thanks.

I haven't. At this point obviously we use LICE everywhere so we can't really change that... :)

Question:
I like that the new MIDI link feature enables us to control FX parameters using the track MIDI path (vs. global MIDI control path). However, now I miss relative/toggle modes, MIDI learn and auto-complete. I'm considering to write a plugin for that. But before I do that: Is it planned? Or an option to use track MIDI path for traditional MIDI/OSC learn?

Reply on January 31 2016, 1:56am:
I don't think most of those options make sense from a track-MIDI perspective, to be honest.
