Question: I really like talking style of Kenny G. How to talk like him? From where he learnt talking like that? He got a really unique style of talking. Asked by Shhh! It's secret! 🤫 (122.177.167.x) on April 27 2023, 3:56pm Reply on April 27 2023, 10:38pm: We'd have to ask him (hopefully he joins in the comments). Comment... Question: Hey Justin, hope you're well. Do you think a lot of advice is conjured in retrospect and in fact, had they followed their advice things may not have work out? I'm not one to outright follow advice, rather pick bits and pieces that might be useful; the more I hear contradicting advice from people who are at similar positions the more I think it's all a load of bs; no one knows for certain which factors contributed to success. Asked by Jack (193.32.126.x) on April 27 2023, 3:09pm Reply on April 27 2023, 10:38pm: Sure, proving causality is extremely difficult! So the best we can do is to relate our experiences. Comment... Question: hey jf- have you sussed the method of stem etraction? could cockos improve that idea⁈⁈ (it is brilliant in current state!..very practical & useable fwiw) cheerz! Asked by 2023 (86.149.177.x) on April 27 2023, 12:41pm Reply on April 27 2023, 10:37pm: It's cool and all but not really our area of expertise. Comment... Question: hey justin. gimme a tip about professional life. thx! Asked by nikolai fedorov (51.158.238.x) on April 27 2023, 9:01am Reply on April 27 2023, 10:37pm: Hah, well, even if you are emotionally invested in it, always stay professional. Not that I've succeeded at that. Comment... Question: hey justin! could you provide a hint on how the reaper video processor APIs are supposed to be used? what does getInputInfo do? do we call renderInputVideoFrame every frame? thanks! Asked by francesco (79.30.42.x) on April 26 2023, 8:42pm Reply on April 27 2023, 10:36pm: It's documented in video_processor.h: When your process_frame() is called, you can (but don't have to) call getNumInputs() to see how many inputs are upstream of you, getInputInfo() to query the track/item of a given input, and renderInputVideoFrame() to render a given input's frame. Note that by "input" I mean "video media file" or "video processor". Comment... Question: Why there's a need for three variants of swell_resgen? Are the latest additions (.pl) backwards compatible with existing .php generation for Linux host? Nice to see the embrace of Perl, I always value Perl for the benefit of not requiring extra installation in comparison to PHP. Asked by Gio (94.65.152.x) on April 26 2023, 1:26pm Reply on April 26 2023, 7:18pm: the perl version should produce the same results and will eventually be the only one :) 3 Comments... Question: hey jf- are you aware of the exact youtube timestrretch algorithm?.... was listening to this track > (youtu.be/p2XxyBViBog @ custom 1.05 speed...sounded well dodgy..almost like a tape warble.. any clues? Asked by 2023 (91.110.225.x) on April 22 2023, 5:36pm Reply on April 23 2023, 3:02am: No idea sorry! I would tend to think it would be something that SoX or some other free tool implements... 3 Comments... Question: As a guitar player how do you like tukans guitar amp simulation in jsfx youtube.com/watch?v=BU9jqjr6xVc ? Asked by nixon (109.250.161.x) on April 22 2023, 12:17pm Reply on April 23 2023, 3:01am: Haven't tried it, love big noisy amps though so playing through the computer is less satisfying. Will try maybe once my wrist is ready Comment... Question: What do you do for sun protection? I hate wearing sunscreen, but I also want to start getting outside more. Have you heard of astaxanthin? They say it does a good job protecting your skin internally. Asked by Erin (174.65.179.x) on April 21 2023, 4:49pm Reply on April 23 2023, 3:01am: I don't like sunscreen much but end up having to use it too. Hats, of course, but the biggest factor is tracking the UV index and timing around that. IMO as long as you don't get burned you're ok, relatively (though not cosmetically perhaps), so working up to it helps. Haven't heard of astaxanthin. Comment... Question: Hello, can you make it so ReaPlay is still heard when changing tabs in reaper ? I like to listen to it in one project tab when setting up routing and stuff in another. Thanks ! Asked by Pleas (89.187.171.x) on April 20 2023, 10:25pm Reply on April 23 2023, 2:59am: Stick it on the monitoring FX? 1 Comment...

Asked by Will (23.125.224.x) on April 20 2023, 7:45pm Reply on April 23 2023, 2:59am: Choice of partner, not having kids, having stunning good looks. 1 Comment... Question: Any plan/desire to run the original marathon before the feet wear down? Asked by Gio (94.65.152.x) on April 20 2023, 10:49am Reply on April 20 2023, 3:51pm: No plan, read about that route in a book once, sounded cool but not sure if I'll get there. Running on roads is getting less and less appealing ;) 1 Comment... Question: Which shoes you use ? The same for running/casual walking? Asked by Shue (186.210.93.x) on April 20 2023, 3:46am Reply on April 20 2023, 3:50pm: Depends on the context, but for running I go between some Hoka One One Torrent 2s and some (no longer made, boo) New Balance Minimus MT10, and Xero Mesa Trail. I'll wear the Torrents around for walking, though if it's colder out or rainy and I'm walking then I'll wear some Keen Siskiyou (which are relatively waterproof). Also various sandals and/or birkenstocks in the summer. Comment... Question: hey jf #multi question..heh...erm..what type of home you live in or at??? big,small? how do you furnish? simple,plain? colours? who cooks,cleans? open spaced , closed? rounded, cubed? ..rented? lease? paid4? ..cheap? expensive? +would you swap with the neigbours?? =) Asked by 2023 (91.110.225.x) on April 19 2023, 12:58pm Reply on April 19 2023, 3:00pm: An apartment, pretty good sized! Furnishings I mostly leave up to Allison. She does most of the cooking and I do most of the dishes, aside from when my wrist is broken which has shifted the balance a bit for a while. At the moment we don't have many doors (it's a big open space), though that will be changing soon. 1 Comment... Question: what made you go outside more, exercise more, compared to your 20's? (got this info from an earlier question, not paparazzis) Asked by Saul Goodman (189.112.72.x) on April 19 2023, 5:16am Reply on April 19 2023, 2:58pm: Being in NYC and embracing not having a car was a good start, and starting bicycling helped! I had I injured myself a few times as a teenager in such a way that I thought I couldn't do things like run, took some encouragement from a mentor to get myslef running, and once I started running and everything more-or-less worked, it went from there. Comment... Question: Where's the place to ask the REAPER devs (and actually get an answer) what their thoughts are about REAPER getting a MIDI clip launcher for live performance ike Bitwig or Ableton have because that's the only thing REAPER lacks in kind of live performance and composition, so it would be a very important feature and not something to be thrown under the rock and roll bus? Asked by shorty (84.178.43.x) on April 17 2023, 9:22am Reply on April 17 2023, 3:33pm (edited at April 17 2023, 3:34pm): Not here but check out playtime2. As far as asking things like that -- you can ask on the forum, but a lack of an answer there is usually an answer in itself. Comment... Question: hey jf- am feeling a temporary solution to balance of finacial resources-- cap individual/ private earnings @ no greater than 10mill... coporations / businesses capped @100 mill... all currency overflows go back into national community funds (shared equally) what you think about this proposal? feasible? WHO needs more? Asked by 2023 (2.26.163.x) on April 14 2023, 8:04pm Reply on April 14 2023, 8:49pm: I think that progressive taxes more effective and reasonable than hard caps, a hard cap creates strange incentive structures whereas a 90% maximum tax rate at least still can motivate. And it would be imperative to close tons of loopholes. And you need to have the ability for companies to manage money for big investments. But I agree in principle! The implementation is not easy. 1 Comment... Question: Favorite breakfast ? Asked by heya (186.210.28.x) on April 14 2023, 7:09am Reply on April 14 2023, 4:11pm: Yogurt and granola I have the most, but I do like french toast a lot. Comment... Question: How are we supposed to believe pictures and stories (especially regarding news articles) in times of Midjourney 5 and GPT 4? Asked by Albi (77.8.81.x) on April 14 2023, 6:39am Reply on April 14 2023, 4:11pm: All about trusting the source, I guess? Comment... Question: Could you give a pointer what to look for in order to fetch from reaper-screensets.ini IDs of FX windows currently stored in a screenset and visible? Is this data accessible without too much decoding? Asked by Buy One (95.135.211.x) on April 12 2023, 8:12pm Reply on April 14 2023, 4:16pm: poslistX_id is fx#{guid-string} etc. postlistX_data has a hex-encoded string best read with GetPrivateProfileStruct() (the lat byte is a checksum). First 4 bytes is a LE integer flags, 1 set means "visible", 2 set means docked. Second byte is docker ID if nonzero. Next 16 bytes are LE integers of window coordinates (left/top/right/bottom). 1 Comment... [newer questions] [unreplied] | [replied] | [recent comments] | [all] [older questions]
