Question: Will REAPER in Windows ever get to have the bluetooth midi UWP support? It´d be great to see it being used as some of the current solutions can only see one device at atime

Question: Can we make a complicated software (like REAPER) entirely in only one programming language, let say, Python?
Asked by Abhi (106.212.144.x) on April 16 2022, 5:16pm
Reply on April 17 2022, 3:59am:
    Hmm I'm not sure, does Python support threads well? Or does it have some big global lock? Other things would be ways of supporting your hardware, updating the screen, etc. I don't know the answers to these.

Question: Hi Justin, I hope you are not tired of being asked this question but I am actually writing a paper on you (and Reaper) and was wondering if you could tell me in your own words, why did you decide to make Reaper when there were other DAWs readily available and what gaps (if any) in the DAW market does Reaper fill that other DAWs either can't or don't want to fill? Thanks for reading my qestion :)
Asked by AnonStudent (175.32.112.x) on April 10 2022, 6:31pm
Reply on April 11 2022, 5:04pm:
    The main gap would be not being a pain in the ass. An example of one the initial things that was important to me were being able to record and change things on the fly, e.g. arm/disarm tracks while recording, but really there are too many things to list.

Question: Hi Justin I'm interested in your old "jesusonic" guitar effect experiment (I think now would be a lot easier to do with the lot of mini pc board around) any possibility that you release that or the jsfx part of the source to the public? I think having jsfx effects would be great in something like jack. thanks

Reply on April 10 2022, 4:04pm:
    I don't think we'll release the source to the classic version but probably the more modern one... you could always run REAPER on any of these devices too. It's not really meaningfully more overhead

Question: Hi dear Reaper creator ! I'm a hudge Reaper fan, and I'm using it for creating music (really love your music BTW). But there are some missing things in Reaper or some minor bugs that I reported on forum (as I'm a developer myself). But anybody from Reaper team seems to look at forum. So maybe 1. do you need some help to make some sorting and fill bugs/feature requests in a bug tracker somewhere? (I would be interested, as I'm enthusiast). 2. I sent you private msg on forum; do you sometimes look? Thks a lot

    We do look at the forum and while things do sometimes get overlooked, often posts aren’t responded to because there’s not much useful to add…

Question: g'day- do you think reaper is providing encouragment to a more experimental,younger,modern approach to music,sound design (thinking EDM) or have you kinda found the user base/market (other than your goodself) that design was initially intended for? (perhaps a slighty older generation?)

    It was originally intended for me, and I'm 100% sure most people don't use it like I do, so yay I guess?

Reply on April 6 2022, 5:15pm:
    No, the closest thing I'll do is a) a 6 hour plane ride or b) going for an easy 90 minute run, after which I'm very hungry. And of course sleeping.

    My first response was to interpret "first" as in "earliest", and it was of climbing up a pear tree as a young kid.
