To call up this window simply double click on the item. Nondestructive clip manipulation is now at your fingertips. Again, these tools are within the Media Item Properties window. Playback rate is just that, faster or slower. This will change the playback rate without changing the pitch. If this unchecked the pitch will raise or lower according to playback speed. Pitch will adjust the pitch of the media while not adjusting the playback rate. Again, both of these commands are non-destructive and can be performed in real-time.
It is listed in the fx listing and not only adjusts semitones and cents but also formants. This can be applied as a clip effect or on a track.
This is also located in the Media Item Properties display. Simply select a piece of media, pull up Media Item Properties and reverse. Clips based effects in Reaper are effects that can be added to a clip of media in real time, no rendering. Effects can be layered and manipulated while Reaper is in playback.

They both also have a user-friendly interface that has gone through several updates over the years, becoming better and easier to use on each occasion.
Reaper is the newer of the two DAWs, having been initially released in — although that may seem like a long time, it has been regularly updated with the latest patch released in November It has a massive following and has proven to be hugely popular since its initial release. The software itself was written and developed by Justin Frankel, a software engineer who worked for a long time at Winamp, a pioneering 90s MP3 program.
After learning to play and record music in his spare time, he decided to design and develop what became Reaper. Its popularity increased quickly after release thanks to its ability to implement a generic track type that allowed musicians to route signals into other channels. It was also super quick to set up and install, with users able to load the software from a USB stick.
Since its release, Reaper has moved from a free service to a paid one. There is still a day free trial for users to get to grips with the specific features and work out if it is the ideal DAW for them. This inexpensive price tag and great customizable options in the software itself are the two main points that make Reaper so attractive to new and experienced producers worldwide.
In addition, the interface is open at both ends, so it can be customized to suit your style, along with the individual elements and modules. Being able to fine-tune a DAW to cater to your specific needs is a real benefit, as long as you know what those needs are. As an open-end software, you can simply download new layouts from the internet to suit your tastes. On top of changing the layout, you can also create things like custom toolbars, menus, mouse actions, and macros.
If you wanted to, you could download Reaper and customize it to function pretty similarly to how Pro Tools does and still have access to the open-source updates and niche VST plugins. For this reason, it can maintain a much higher track count than many of the other major DAWs.
Again, this is a great advantage, particularly for anyone on a budget. That efficiency is carried through to the plugins and VSTs as well. Even with all of its options and customizable features, Reaper can be tricky to navigate. Because the aim is to cater to everyone, the interface can seem overcrowded with options that may be irrelevant to you.
The included plugins are not known for looking the best, either. I didn't remove anything. The fact is at the size of the meters for Pro Tools, which I'm attempting to emulate even down to pixel spacing, the number isn't visible. To adjust it yourself, you need to change the meter size to be wider. As for the Track Number, I haven't tried to change it recently, but when I first started on the Theme, the Track Number color wasn't independent and it made other elements the wrong color altogether, so I had to live with it being black.
At first, I had the number inside a much lighter circle, but the circle tended to distort when adjusting the track height, which annoyed me more than a black Track Number. As for the color faders, that was a mod someone else did of my mod. Ha ha ha!!! ReaperThemeZip, but if I understand your comment correctly, that's the one you're already using.
First let me be clear this is an amazing theme and thanks for sharing. I am using the Anyway here we go:. If you don't want to bring back that funcionality, could you let me know what I need to change in the config file so I can bring that myself to this theme and a few more fave of mine?
The Shoe Lace theme is still awesome and it has what I am talking about. Last but not least, how can I make the number track color white it's black right now and you can barely read it among all the blue stripe, which don't get me wrong, is awesome, you got the PT looks so sweet. I have issue with element spacing in the transport. Thanks ddavis, I'm glad you like it. Sorry it took awhile to respond.
I don't get a notification or anything when someone comments, so I just see them when I think to check occasionally. As I said in the synopsis, I'm not all that skilled with Theming either, but it is fun when I have the time. Tried flipping the image files for the "selected" and "unselected" item in the folder for this theme, but that didn't seem to work.
Any word on how to get this fixed? This theme is amazing, but that part of it is pretty confusing for a reformed Pro Tools user to see what's really selected. It took me a little bit to realize that there wasn't some errant signal coming in and that it was just the background of the meter at higher signal levels. And the question: I accidentally screwed something up when trying to change the top color of the VU meter, so now my tracks no longer resize to a nice height when I insert a new track they now insert really small.
And that's it! Note that in some cases you may have to install other components such as customised fonts etc, however its usually straightforward if you make sure to follow the developer's instructions. If you wish to revert back to the default theme, then just select Default. Reaper themes are stored within your application data directory:. To uninstall a Reaper theme simply navigate to the application data directory and delete the corresponding ReaperThemeZip file.
There are so many great Reaper themes to choose from that it can quickly become overwhelming. I've spent some time researching and trying out the most popular themes and narrowed down the list to what I think are the 5 best themes available. So here we go then The Imperial Theme by White Tie changes the appearance of Reaper to look like a cool retro analogue console. It's primarily designed for a high-resolution dual monitor setup, allowing you for example to split the mixer away from the main arrangement view to view on separate displays.
You can still use it with a single monitor; however, you'll have to toggle between screens which can become a bit tiresome. The theme contains various alternate layouts which enable you to display everything you need for a specific workflow stage.
This is a great design decision, allowing you to fully focus in on the task in-hand. Although the analogue styled interface may not be for everyone, I really liked it. It should be noted however that White Tie recommend a specific set of Reaper user preferences that must be selected outside of the theme for everything to look its best.
See their website for more details. In summary, the Imperial Theme is probably not your best option for a single display, however, if you do have the screen real estate then this theme is unsurpassed. As the name suggests, the Smooth 6 theme by bOse is simply gorgeous to look at.
Minimalist in design, it looks both sleek and modern.
