Question: hey jf- time,or beats with reaper? + why? thanx! Asked by 2023 (86.154.42.x) on October 8 2023, 4:06pm Reply on October 9 2023, 1:19pm: Depends on what you're doing! If you're composing and sequencing drums etc, or playing to a click, then def beats. If you're recording live and editing without thought of tempo, it doesn't matter (you can ignore). If you record live, then want to build a tempo map for your live recording, then you'd want to put either the project in time or those tracks, then build the tempo map (so they are unaffected by it), etc. Comment...
