Question: Do you prefer fitness bands or smart watches? Do you have any? Asked by Abhi (117.207.138.x) on October 25 2018, 3:30pm Reply on October 25 2018, 10:25pm: I have a 3rd gen Apple watch with LTE, which I only use for running (sending/receiving texts while running is nice, and not having to bring a phone is also nice). I also use it for swimming, it's very cool how it can detect laps and the type of swimming stroke used. It's terrible for non-activity use, IMO, and it has to live on the charger (it seems like off the charger, not on a wrist, in airplane mode, the battery should last days and days, but it goes down so quick. It's literally doing nothing except keep time, it should be able to go into some deep sleep IMO...). 1 Comment... Question: Don't you think the bold Ask Justin Frankel text at the top should lead to the front page when you click it? Or do you think I'm wrong here :) Asked by MS from Sweden (77.218.246.x) on October 22 2018, 9:08pm Reply on October 22 2018, 10:35pm: One could do that, and drop the [back to index] link, I guess... Comment... Question: Is there somewhere info about structure of .RfxChain files? e.g. what else parameters are except REQUIRED_CHANNELS, COMMENT in other place,etc. I would like to simplify function for reading fxchain, i tried to be careful not to break trackchunk, so my func is very big and slow. It's not feature request!!! Just would like to read some info on subject, if it's available somewhere.thanks. Asked by Poooooony (94.230.197.x) on October 22 2018, 3:37pm Reply on October 22 2018, 4:57pm: Please post this on the forum or email (or both of you prefer), thanks! 2 Comments... Question: How many instruments do you play? Asked by MS from Sweden (77.218.246.x) on October 21 2018, 9:43pm Reply on October 22 2018, 12:53am: To varying degrees of competence: drums, guitar, bass, ukele (5 chords or so?), clarinet, flute, a bit of sax (mostly like clarinet anyway), piano poorly... maybe that’s it? Comment... Question: Justin, thank you so much for your creative input to everything you do I wish you great day and hope that you will manage your workload properly... we don't need any burnouts ;) p.s loved your Robot Rumpus Remix....sorry no question just sending some love and appreciation =) Asked by Georgy (172.250.71.x) on October 20 2018, 7:08pm Reply on October 20 2018, 7:34pm (edited at October 21 2018, 4:13am): Aww thanks! Comment... Question: Thanks. Would you like to see "Likes" feature on askjf.com? I was raised to say "thank you" but that ain't a question ;D Asked by John (78.1.165.x) on October 20 2018, 2:14pm Reply on October 20 2018, 7:34pm: Hmm, no, but I think comments would be useful, maybe I'll do that (and if you want to like you can comment "I like this!"). 8 Comments... Question: Python isn't going away? I know we have Lua and EEL but old py is still useful. Asked by John (78.1.165.x) on October 20 2018, 11:19am Reply on October 20 2018, 12:39pm: It's not but it also isn't as well-integrated as the others, nor will it ever be. Comment... Question: Hi Mr. Frankel. Will we see VST Instruments in Reaper? Asked by Farzin (217.248.187.x) on October 20 2018, 8:40am Reply on October 20 2018, 12:40pm: There are a few, maybe there will be some improvements there but not a lot. Comment... Question: Trippy to see a new release of WinAMP making hackernews! news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18258968 Asked by Will (23.125.224.x) on October 20 2018, 1:09am Reply on October 20 2018, 12:40pm: I do like nostalgia, but meh. Comment... Question: Hi Justin! Would you please consider adding a Chinese Forum to "REAPER Non-English Speaking User Forums"? Lots of my friends are using RP, and I think they would be very cheerful to see it! ; ) Asked by Moy Walker (103.65.40.x) on October 19 2018, 4:50am Reply on October 19 2018, 11:48pm: It's tricky because when adding a foreign language forum, you usually want to have a few trusted forum users who speak the language and who are willing to function as moderators. Without that it's risky... :/ Comment... Question: A bit quiet in here the last days, no? Asked by wasereb4 (94.134.90.x) on October 18 2018, 2:55am Reply on October 18 2018, 3:36pm: Not unusually so, I'd think. Comment... Question: What do you think about the return of Winamp? Asked by Sam Black (192.56.11.x) on October 15 2018, 9:50pm Reply on October 15 2018, 10:28pm: I've long since stopped caring about what happens to it ;) I've spent more than twice as long working on REAPER than I did on Winamp. And I use REAPER every day. 1 Comment... Question: Have you consider AppImage for Linux builds? Asked by Gio (79.131.92.x) on October 14 2018, 1:45pm Reply on October 14 2018, 11:38pm: I haven't looked at that yet... Comment... Question: Your favorite candy bar, cereal, and icecream? Asked by Martin (87.220.81.x) on October 13 2018, 3:49pm Reply on October 14 2018, 11:38pm: Hmm snickers is pretty good, not sure I have a favorite. Cereal, I've been in to muesli lately. Ice cream: soft serve. Comment... Question: I was curious to know if exists somewhere the source code for the wasabi framework. At the time of winamp3 i was so glad it was tentatively cross-platform Asked by Leonardo (93.34.1.x) on October 11 2018, 8:11am Reply on October 11 2018, 11:58am: It seems sourceforge has it in executable form... Comment... Question: Will REAPER installer's size ever cross 50 MB? Or even, 20-30 MB in future? Are there legacy codes in REAPER? Asked by Abhi (117.197.6.x) on October 10 2018, 9:49am Reply on October 10 2018, 1:59pm: Maybe? Not sure what you mean about legacy codes, but there's definitely a lot of stuff that we'd like to remove but are stuck with, hah. "feature latch". Comment... Question: Are you familiar with Halt And Catch Fire? If so, thoughts? Asked by Lokasenna (198.48.166.x) on October 9 2018, 4:27pm Reply on October 9 2018, 8:45pm: I've tried to watch it a couple of times and failed 1 Comment... Question: If you do that, please have a look at the latest mod of baby sequencer here then: stash.reaper.fm/v/20869/seq%20mega...I've created a full-blown sequencer configuration for REAPER and this mod is quite useful in real-life scenarios. Hard to explain, you have to play with it all in real projects to get the sense what and how. For example, I currently have special macros for my project only that will record disable for recording into sequencer etc...lots of things to consider, but oh the fun... Asked by John (78.1.184.x) on October 7 2018, 3:47pm Reply on October 9 2018, 8:47pm: noted Comment... Question: Is there something in REAPER you regret having implemented the way you did because later on you wanted to change it but it's difficult/impossible for not breaking things etc.? Asked by wasereb4 (94.134.90.x) on October 4 2018, 3:19am Reply on October 4 2018, 1:00pm: Tons of things, sure.
