During setup, listen to the song and create markers at the start of each section. Markers also make it a breeze when the artist wants to punch-in a line or two. Remember to enable pre-roll before recording in the Metronome options. This led a few power users to create a more advanced, more customizable way of creating a click track. In the newly opened folder, go to the TrackTemplates folder. Copy-paste the file you just downloaded to this folder.
Restart Reaper and you should be able to insert the click track from its template. Right-click in the Tracks area, under any of your tracks. Go to Insert track from template and choose Click Tracks from the menu. You can even change the samples used for the click sources.
Right-click them and go to Source Properties. The Primary beat sample and the Secondary beat fields are where you browse for the replacement sound sources. Tick the box next to Include track items in template so the click source items are saved as well. Now that the metronome is a track just like any other, you can process the click however you want to. Is it too pokey? Use a transient designer to soften it.
Too harsh? EQ it. While recording, you should try to make the monitor mix and headphone mixes sound like a finished record. This will make the players feel great when recording and create a great vibe for the session. As soon as you know the style and feel of the song, start getting balances and panning and think about what effects and processing will enhance the production. Err on the dry side with time-based effects as the performers may lose their center of pitch and groove if there is too much reverb or delay.
Some engineers prefer to record clean, unprocessed sounds and monitor with insert compression and EQ while some prefer to apply compression and EQ while recording. You can always add more processing later. Occasionally, I record with Input FX while tracking. While any plugin can be used as an Input FX, the processing is done by your CPU, so you might run into some latency issues. Depending on your system, you may get away with some colorful plugins, such as preamp or tape emulations.
If you are making aggressive EQ changes, you may consider simultaneously recording to a second track without input fx processing. During mixing, you may decide the unprocessed recording to be the better fit for the song. Not only does this allow for later reamping, but this will also help you tremendously when editing.
Overdriven guitar waveforms look like bricks, which makes finding the start of hits difficult to see in the waveform.
Alright, lets post fx presets, templates, track templates and RFX chains in here. Lets try to keep it to one post per person, and just update your post as you comes up with more goodies. Templates: Track Templates: Gated Reverb - This is routed so that the input audio feeds both the reverb and the detector input of the noisegate, while the noisegate mutes the reverb's output.
OK, here are some presets for ReEQ. RPL Right click, save link as and save the file to your hard disk. Please remember though that presets are starting points, not final destinations. Be prepared to tweak! There are. Find More Posts by sinkmusic. What it is is this Track for revalver VSTfx: should load up.
Use just amps and effects on this one.. Record your guitar track to the track with your amp setup on it, this is fed to the three cab tracks. When you record arm the cab tracks, it will automatically be set to record output, so you can record the outputs of the three cabs, move them to different tracks, and record more riffs.
Think of this as an amplifier head, hooked up to a cab, with three microphones. Attached Files RevalverDist3cab. Views and postings are my own. Hi I am digging the Reaper preset management system!
Is there any ReaFir presets? Thank you! One neat thing is that you can gatehr multiple banks into one huge lirbrary. I will update this post if I improve the curve, for now it works pretty good. Also if you are doing the same thing, you'll need to get an imprint of the noise floor, and clean the recording before processing the de-emphasis.
FXP Bytes, views. Last edited by hamish; at PM. I put this together this morning. What I have done is take the main Frequency attributes of common instruments and set the bands up for you. I left all other settings flat so when You insert a preset on a track it should not change the sound until you decide if a band should go up or down.
If there was a range in frequency I put the ReaEQ band in the middle of that range. Of course you can add as many bands as you need. But I only setup the ones citied in the article as main attribute points.

RTrackTemplate and introducing Reason Rack 2. LoopBe1, freeware. Tested and Created on Reaper 3. Coming from Reason, the previous version had separate tracks for midi and audio.
This version however, is in style with Reaper philosophy: Audio and Midi on the same track! How to set it up? Project settings First of all, you need to change the project settings, to enable feedback. This might sound tricky, but since you probably use Reason as well, you're used to the potential of having nasty feedback loops in your setups.
Without this setting the template will not work! Although that is known as feedback, it's the good kind we want in this case. Click this link to the track template Reason-v0. RTrackTemplate to download the archive with the template. Extract the template Reason-v0. Then we want a Reason rack that plays nicely with this setup, download here: Reaper Rack. Besides that, it playes nicely with the track template! Save the rack somewhere handy.
How to play Reason from Reaper? Open Reaper and create a new project if that's not the default action. Right click the TCP and chose the track template: You should see that a couple of tracks are inserted and that Reason is started. If Reason does not start, close Reaper, make sure that Reason. Next is to load the Rack into Reason: If you have a midi keyboard installed or using the Virtual Midi keyboard in Reaper , pressing a key should result in a weird sound being heard, as I included a sample synth in combinator 1.
After inserting : After selecting the first instrument track Now it's time to play with your new setup! Display shows "Playing" and the play button is green, but the cursor does not move at all. Maybe it's something damn simple stupid, but currently I cannot see the problem.
Win8 64bit Reason 7. If you will be mixing in Reaper, bypass the Reason mixer, routing instruments directly to the 'hardware interface' in Reason. Also, setup some stereo pairs in Reaper to accept outputs from Reason's devices, and in Reason's preferences, save a 'default song' template with your most used devices ready to go.
Shoot me and yourself for using software that requires a dongle and doesn't work with vst plugins. When is the next Komplete sale? This thread reminded me that I need to drop Reason from my setup.
I use them all the time rewired as do many others here and have no problems. The templates in the links i provided and the link for the video in another post above show you the basics and have the tracks already set up. I just tried them - they work fine.
Open the Reaper template first - Reason rewired should open with it. Then go into Reason and open the Reason template that was also downloaded from the Reaper stash and close the first Reason project that opened. Uncheck your midi input in Reason prefs. Make sure to choose your Midi input on the midi tracks in Reaper. The corresponding audio track should play the audio out of that instrument from Reason. Make sure you look at the Rewire panel on the Rewire track in Reaper and briefly study it all the tabs.
You have to make changes there if you change instruments, etc. Think of it as the Rewire "brain" in Reaper. You'll then have an idea of what's going on and you should be able to set up the extra tracks or change any tracks as needed. All of your midi will be recorded in Reaper for all Reason instruments. All editing will be done in Reaper. Midi can be recorded as audio on the corresponding audio tracks as needed Record Output.
Reaper is the master, Reason is the slave. It takes some hard work on your part to get things set up right, but once saved as templates in both programs, you're good to go from then on out. Last edited by Billy M; at AM.

Make sure you only have the Reason template included open and not another Reason project open at the same time. The audio from each instrument should be playing from the corresponding audio track below the instrument's midi track and the master track in Reaper.
Flip the rack in Reason and make sure the instruments are cabled to the hardware interface directly - no SSL mixer used. For the rest, make sure the Track Channel matches the Rewire Output.
I'm sure they work well. I'm a real newb at Reaper, I've never done any routing within it, even without ReWire, so I need to study that some before I can make sense of the descriptions of Reaper routing required for this.
If I don't see where I need to move the mouse and which buttons I need to press on the keyboard, I don't understand the higher-level terminology used to describe this process.
Once I get there, I'll work with the ReWire templates more. And I never installed the dongle, I just authenticate over the internet each time I start Reason.
