Hi,
I know it's a strange question but I also think it's logical, how much will these courses cost, if there's going to be a lot to cover in them?

Hopefully you have figured out how to disable midi aftertouch for recording. I can't seem to find that feature ANYWHERE.  In sonar, it was a simple check box.  Goes a long way...  IT's annoying, cause I can't use my E-drums to trigger AD2  with Aftertouch on.  Doesn't work properly.

Just a question here. I am learning some of reaper, I have been taught by people like Simon J and Ghorth on some concepts, though am glad to have a unified course for it. But reaper is a digital audio workstation, and it can be used to make more than just music, right? It can do things like audio projects, skits etc that don't conform to bpm surely, it has the features for it. Then, how would I go about getting navigation and such to be in time base? I'm using osara, hopefully you're using osara and not rea access, but if I wanna do an audio project, even if I set all the project bases osara still navigates in musical time. And also is there any way to modify the seeking behavior to not do that stupid tape stop thing when scrubbing? I've been told it's doable but can't figure out how to do it.

At X0, yes, Reaper can be used for that sort of work, and yes, I use (and am writing the tutorials based on) Osara. Unfortunately, I don't know of a way to completely change to real time controls, but what you can do is open the view menu with alt +v, find the "time unit for ruler" setting and select one of the real time options, and based on Reaper's default BPM for new projects of 120, your measure navigation buttons will now move you back and forth in two second intervals. It won't read out the time correctly when you do this, but if you move left or right with the arrows you will hear it read out in minutes/seconds.

If you don't have it already, I highly recommend getting the SWS extension for Reaper, which adds a ton more shortcuts and actions, including a pair called "move cursor left/right by configured seconds." The configured seconds value can be entered by finding the "Command Parameters ..." menu under the extensions menu on the menu bar and entering the amount by which you would like to skip forward or back in the "seconds (edit cursor)" box. Note that you need the SWS extension for this, and this pair of commands doesn't have a shortcut assigned to it by default, so if it's something you'd need regularly you might want to assign a shortcut to it.

As for scrubbing, it can be turned off by opening preferences (control + p) and finding "Playback" under "Audio", tabbing to "When moving edit cursor via action or control surface:", and changing it from "scrub" to "do not scrub." Hope this helps!

At G-Rad, sweet, glad you got things working!

nice resource, hopefully it will go on the www.reaperaccessibility.com wiki soon if you don't mind.

I'm looking forward to your posts and will check your website as often as I can for new content! Cause We (Me and my brother white) are beginning music production using reaper. It's obvious from the topics I've created 'bout this

I do like that the guide is in the wiki, that's cool, one thing though, there are a bunch of unicode failed things in thre, I don't even know, like we're turns into we!#re or some weirdness

Hi.
Wow, thanks for the awesomeness.
Have you considered to work together with the people who already have some tutorials and sites for accessible Reaper content, so it's all at one place, instead of on multiple websites?

you are right. that is weird because pinging the domain still returns an IP and that just apparently happened yesterday. I will update with details when I have them.

I think the Wiki already does a fantastic job of this considering how difficult it would be to coordinate putting it all together. I also tried to do this on a smaller scale under the further reading and resources section of the course archives page on my blog, pointing to as many resources as I could find that could get someone going on their own. A lot of what I learned regarding Reaper was doing a lot of digging through podcasts and mailing lists to find what I could apply to do my assignments for my recording classes in college, and my goal with this is to compile as much of that into a start to finish guide for someone new to recording, something I haven't seen anywhere specifically written with accessibility in mind that wasn't behind a paywall.

Happy to say the next set of chapters is coming along fine, and will be up soon!
