I haven't been to enough places and it's hard to have a favorite since variety is what makes them interesting I guess? if I had to pick somewhere to be around now, I might choose the coast of Cornwall... Comment...

Question: In last week’s interview, you mentioned the buffering preferences in passing – how the default is somewhat outdated (to paraphrase). Could you share a screenshot of your buffering preferences?
Asked by J.R. Taylor (70.112.146.x) on March 5 2022, 4:41am
Reply on March 5 2022, 2:07pm:

I use the defaults. I was theorizing more than anything, that if you have a fast SSD, you could go to preferences/buffering, and change the media buffer size from the default of 1200ms to 500ms, and probably be fine. But there's no real need to. Comment...

Question: Reaper and data science, feels like the field is getting everywhere, what do you think of people using the scriptable powers of Reaper for organizing training data (audio ofc), previewing simulation results (vectors to envelope automation and stuff like that), etc.? Any wild ideas for data collection of Reaper projects? Have a nice day!

Question: What will happen to Reaper when you die? Will you sell it to another company or will it just stop being updated?

Question: I'm still facing issues with PDC on online render of ReaInsert. The playback is ok, I measure latency mostly manually, sometimes with Ping. Render short fragments os always ok. Online render of long fragments suddenly can slide several ms right. Then I render again short fragment and align. Mac OS here, Clarett 4pre - any ideas how to solve that?
