Mercado_Negro, I'm with you on this. I learn the same thing recently and I also even think that anger or billion of bumps perharps do not help, on the contrary... ... but when we read beween the lines of all those FRs/BRs, the lack of feedback seems to be a COMMON POINT and looks like - for me - the most important FR ("meta" FR to be right), isn't it ? I think there's something to improve about that (we can guess the reason why... so may be with the help of "advanced" users could help, as a 1st filter ?) 'cause cockos must not "lose sight of what's is really important"
Some of the banter above is starting to feel a little "good cop, bad cop"... GOOD COP: look, we know you did it. We have proof that you're NOT on the take. You didn't align your tracks. Give me what I requested and there will be no crossover. BAD COP: (barges in) Listen kid, I know you're the Reaper! I'm gonna loop your ass and feed it to the DAWgs. When I'm done with you, your users are gonna split your items and hardware your regions, right in your own software! GOOD COP: Don't listen to him. I know you didn't mean it -- you're just with the wrong mix. I'm just trying to keep you in a free position. Stop running mute and you won't serve unsynchronized time. And the surprise ending would be... REAPER: Yeah, I knew you guys were gonna group up on me. Well I've gotta a surprise -- you guys are gonna freeze in your tracks. I WAS on the take, and I'll give you everything you need. You just gotta wait more than a fricken minute. :D
Hello all, long time no see... Way back in 2007, I posted the infamous "can of worms" thread on this very topic (here: ). Just heard 3.0 was coming on another board, thought I'd check in after a long time away - to see if any progress had been made on that front. Sorry to see things are still pretty much the same. When I heard "Version 3 is coming!", I thought for sure takes/lanes would be getting a big facelift. For what it's worth, I'm still a big Reaper fan, at least in theory. Once takes/lanes "grows up", I may even make the switch (from Cubase/Nuendo). So, +1 (yet again!) from me. Til then... see you guys again when v4 is announced :). Aj
