Question: congrats on 18 years of reaper (+ thanks). reaper still seems ahead of the pack, performance-wise - i'm curious if there are any architectural decisions you made back then that have held up over that time. (my guess would be anticipative rendering which still seems unique)

    Using doubles for everything except time was great. For time, less great... Pretty much everything has evolved though, probably very little has remained. The biggest win I think is trying to keep the build process fast and easy.

Question: Hey Justin, have you ever heard of Chris from Airwindows? He releases new plugins basically every sunday and they are very interesting, maybe you could get something nice from his Galactic reverb, tapeDelay2, Clearcoat, and so on. They're all free(patreon supported) and so on, he also uses and encorages people to use Reaper. So yeah, hes an interesting mind for sure, you caould probably like some of his gadgets. e.g. youtube.com/watch?v=n6LIx52Wf_4

    Yeah, cool, though I rarely have time to bother with plug-ins, prefer to play with instruments... That reverb in the opening part of that video sounds a lot like Rrreeeaaa stretching things a ton heh

Question: hey jf- have read somewhere that reaper developing is just a 2 man team.. iis whitetie not part of that team? (kenny g,scribe~?) or...

    Depends on how you define it, he does work on the theme and programming things related to that but doesn't work on the reaper executable etc. I look at us as being a 6 person team.

Question: why is it still experimental native dark mode(reaper) on mac os?

Reply on November 14 2023, 6:35pm:
    Yeah I guess it could be allowed... macOS does all sorts of weird different things in dark mode, but should be fine.

Question: In an interview from 2010, you mentioned the importance of being able to separate signal from noise when choosing tasks to work on. Given that you probably have limitless ideas for improving your software (not to mention community submissions), do you have a way of determining what to focus on and in what order (if any)?

Question: Respected Justin, I've heard that ReaMote is no longer supported by V7 due to certain issues. I'd like to explain our situation. While we didn't use the CPU stress reduction feature much for previous stereo creations, it's become crucial for our immersive sound production. The increase in CPU pressure, particularly for 7.1.4 beds and more objects, has surpassed 20 times. Without ReaMote, we'd genuinely struggle. Are there any plans for alternative features? Your assistance is crucial for our music creation

    I assume that posting anonymous anywhere is not, in fact, anonymous. Having said that, I don't feel much pressure to behave a certain way, other than the normal filter of polite behavior.

Question: I'll start by apologizing, but I think only you can give me a straight answer. I make high-resolution recordings at rates up to 352.8kHz. In Reaper, under project settings, there is a dialog box that comes disabled, making Reaper assume the rate of my interface. I did the test, set my interface to 352.8kHz and Reaper took over the sample rate with no apparent problems. So, I'd like to know if everything is OK, if it's OK to use Reaper at these rates or if the limit is really 192kHz. to be continued...

    If the hardware supports these sample rates then you should be good! Why you need that many samples is another question entirely...
