Question: A couple questions in one. You used to advertise Windows XP compatibility (according to archive.org, that seemed to have changed in December). Do you test new builds of REAPER against older OS's like XP and macOS 10.5? How are you incorporating new OS features into REAPER whilst still maintaining compatibility with older OS's? Asked by dronenb (129.222.0.x) on August 20 2022, 3:28am Reply on August 20 2022, 3:12pm: We still do list WinXP as a compatible OS. Whenever we use a newer API we load it dynamically and make sure that older systems still function (though obviously not supporting the new feature). So for example, if you run on WinXP you can't use the newer WMF media encoding/decoding support, but REAPER still runs. Comment...

Question: This is probably basic, but how does a plugin communicate with a DAW? If a plugin sets a certain variable or calls a function, how does the DAW even know what's being reffered to? Does each variable and function get assigned a unique identifier that doesn't change? Asked by Erin (75.15.159.x) on August 13 2022, 7:48pm Reply on August 14 2022, 12:11am: It depends on the API, but in general it's sort of "DAW requests plug-in process some audio, plugin procesess it. DAW requests parameter set to XYZ. etc" Comment... Question: What are some of the challanges concerning routing audio from one software to another in real time?

Question: Can you explain your workflow of creating branches for specific features and then making custom builds that include some of those features. I don't really understand how you merge all stuff and keep everything sane. Do you have some automation system for this? How does the naming of branches / builds work? Thanks Asked by nikolalkc (88.172.223.x) on August 6 2022, 11:32pm Reply on August 7 2022, 3:16am: We use pre_ for branches that go in prereleases. Then we keep a branch called dev-pub which when we want to do +dev builds include all of the pre_ branches. When we want to do a build, we put a special commit on the end (WANT_BUILD version_number), and push that to a branch named want_build, which has machines watching it and ready to build on demand. Once a pre_ branch is ready-ish to go to release, we merge it to our main branch. Sometiems two pre_ branches end up intertwined, we'll merge them, or keep one dependent on the other, in order to avoid continual conflicts. 3 Comments...
