YES! @Reaper give this guy a job in your marketing division or make a position simply entitled "Ideas Guy" a.s.a.p. Missing out on the little things like that is like missing out on a chance to make a good thing great. It's the tiniest of differences that can separate another 'great' product from an Unforgettable one and I guarantee everyone who reads this will forever think of them as Reapositories! Lol
i used to watch your channel years ago when i was more involved in writing and producing music. i fell off of it for a couple years but seeing as i'm stuck indoors with nothing to do i'm glad you're still around and giving solid advice!
Out of all the professionals on RUclips your intro music has the sweetest sound to it. So many have an almost television commercial sound. Props! Your big attitude actually matches your big skills bro. Love you man.
This is TREMENDOUS! And sooo easy! Thank you again, Glenn - I just used the JS Filther on "Saike Psuedo Atan with Moog" on the strings and it MADE THE TRACK!
Compression was something that took me about a year and a half of going what is THIS for?! It doesnt do shit. And then one day I worked it out and it was like hooolllyyyyyy shit its the betterizer! Everything is better! That said, this was desk hardware compression back in the 90s, so that did restrain my urge to go bezerk, because on tape, you cant cant just copy paste. Man the internet woulda been good back then,. Intead I had to have VERY JUDGEMENTAL audio dudes rolling their eyes at me to learn lol
@@shayneoneill1506 my first experience with a compressor was a boss bass limiter enhancer. Couldn't figure out what I was doing with it until I started slapping the strings with it lol. That 1175 compressor on the js list is my favorite.
Wow, that pack looks like something I could totally get lost in for a few days/weeks. I agree with Jacob that the lack of decent GUI's can be a bit staid looking, but hell I'm not going to complain if the outcome is good.
Some of the JS stuff is pretty great but it's easy to get lost in how many plugins are available. Also the lack of decent GUI on them makes them not enjoyable to use. That said, some of the tools and scripts are ridiculously powerful and it's awesome that people spend so much time to create these things to just give them away for free.
The only thing that matters is the sound you get. I love mixing with airwindows plugins, and I don't give a flying fuck they don't have their own GUIs. As long as I get the sound I am after, I'm satisfied.
Tools are supposed to do the thing you want them to do, not look pretty :) If one seeks inspiration from visual look of their tools, they're not so much in control of their craft just yet... so keep practicing!
Mtaalas valid point, but making music and recording is my hobby, not my profession, so I want to enjoy my time. It is far more enjoyable for me to use a thoughtfully laid out GUI than the sliders of the JS plugins. It's cool that Glenn uses them for their simple utility, but I already have enough tools from professionally developed plugins to get the job done. Where Reaper becomes amazing to me are some of the custom actions I can develop and also the processing scripts and theming that allow me to really enjoy working on music.
@@jacobsmith1877 then stick to your garageband and never touch any pro software again. What you complain about is utter bullshit. It's like calling cycling your hobby, but complaining that you need to use your legs to ride a bicycle.
awesome, didn't know that you could import more things into reapack, i thought it did everything automatically anyway, thanks for the inspiration! reaper ROCKS!

You should try the Snapshot extension. It’s fucking INCREDIBLE when you’re mixing multiple projects and want to instantaneously transfer a complete mix (including effects) to another project file.
It's not JavaScript but JesuSonic. Really. So how d'ya like that, eh? ;) I made a bunch of those JS effects, have a look-see if you feel like it. Also starting with ReaScript stuff, my first one was a plugin that turns a track of text items into (RUclips compatible) synchronised SRT subtitle file content. Effects: github.com/chkhld/jsfx Scripts: github.com/chkhld/reascript None of it is in ReaPack though, you'll need to manually install them. Maybe one day when I'm bored enough... *sigh*
I'd love a plugin that could show a guitar tab/score from something like Guitar Pro along with its midi track to assist with recording. But all I found so far was something trying to mimic guitar hero's look, which is not good for sight reading.
@@alexeypolevoybass Yeah, and what else helps is being able to read music so you don't have to memorize everything, particularly when you're dealing with songs that have lots of details and very little repetition.
A quick note on free plugins/emulations. I'm not knocking freebies. They do work. But most freebies are made using the original schematic, which means the are mathematically correct. But real world analog gear operates with a margin of error. Resisters, etc (especially vintage tech) actually have varying tolerances. IE a 2k resister might actually be above or below the actual 2k, and in a successive chain all these parts can have massive effects on tone. The paid plugins are expensive because the techs at the company actually went to the studio and measured the exact tolerances of the particular units they are based on (often part by part) so the end result is most accurate to the real analog product. What does this mean. If you watch glens video "This EQ trick Rules on Metal Guitar" He compares the puigtech compressor to an emulated free version, and while he liked the free version, he wasn't able to dial in the desired tone as easily. The reason for this, is analog gear, again, has different tolerances and the variations in the actual parts and colours the tones in the end result. The free version was just an emulation made using the exact mathematical signal chain. So the free plugin is technically the most correct version based on the schematic, but as analog gear is imperfect the colouration of the tone actually had a more pleasing effect than the technically correct version. It "warmed" the tone. In short what you're paying for with the paid plugins is an emulation of the actual analog gear used on all the great albums. What you get with free plugins is pretty much a fancy GUI. They still work. But you aren't getting what made the original device legendary, which was it's imperfections. So what I'm really saying is if you are going to use freebies, you're almost better off using the plugins that come with your DAW, unless you like the "feel" of dialing in the tone on an analog box which the GUI will give you. But if you're after the SOUND of the analog boxes that they are based on, you are better off paying the cost.
Yeah but you say the techs went and measured the analog gear? So say the gear they measured the transistor is 2.4 K (above) but the compressor on the album you like, that transistor was really 1.8 K. Now like you said, multiply that variance throughout an entire signal chain and it will start to make going and measuring actual gear a bit silly. The great albums sound great because the engineer used his ears until it sounded good. Not because magic analog deviations made it good. Same can be done with free plugins I assume that emulate the exact schematic.
You all probably dont give a shit but does anyone know a method to get back into an instagram account..? I was stupid lost the login password. I love any assistance you can give me
Ageing metalhead here. Came out of playing live when Tascam Portastudio's were still a thing and I'm now getting back into playing again. Gone down the Amplitube route and am trying to get my head around this Reaper thing. It's so exciting to have this sort of tech at the hands of the average musician now... whether we're any good at using it remains to be seen but it's going to be fun going down the road having a bash at it. Thanks for your content, I'm getting a lot from it and really appreciate you sharing your knowledge.
The free ReaPlugs VSTi bundle now also comes with ReaJS, for using JSfx in other DAWs. It hasn't prompted me to try another DAW, but it's nice to know. 'Can't speak to ReaPack, but if Reaper can install them, ReaJS ought' render them accessible elsewhere...
Hey Glenn... I am also from Ontario, not far from you. Thanks for all of your opinions and passing on what youve learned in music production. I just got an audio interface and want to start building a home studio and try making some music. I don't have much gear at all, but looking forward to it! Thanks again for everything brother.
Hey Glenn , what cab irs are less frequently used in metal , as I want to sculpt my own tone , and not use v30s only ( nothing wrong with v30s, but I think they are overused at this point ) . Thanks Glenn , love the show
I love how reaper is so cheap and yet has more functionality than pro tools, like if I want to use MPE and MPE plugins with reaper its no problem but with protools its impossible.
The actual song you were demoing with was really interesting! (Honestly, the "metal" component was the least interesting part) I'd love to know about the artist/song and where it is available.
AYE GLEN! not audio related but.... I just started Keto and was curious what your 3 favorite keto dishes were? much love from the bay area GRACIAS WAY!
Hmm. JS ??? Sounds familiar. I could be wrong... but are this free vST 1.0 plug-ins that where around back among the very first free packs around ?? Seems to recall memories of something I used to use in FL back when it might still even might have been Fruity...
Glenn!!!! I'm mixing a band that recorded in the studio and everything was live. All amps in separate rooms and everyone in with the drums. There are clean and distorted parts and I don't know which direction to go. Should I us animation to control the fx and volume, or should I split the section and give the clean a separate track than the distorted? I can't run the same mix bus on both clean and distorted parts? I'm saving new file and going to experiment but what would you do in this situation? If I can ever learn to make a decent mix I'll see you over on distrokid.
Any updates on this? I think this should’ve already been a default feature. There should be a Reaper approved plug-in download interface when you simply click on that little FX symbol and we should be able to browse through them. I don’t think this is too much to ask today.
Glenn, this is just fabulous. Love your work and as always a pleasure seeing your artistry here. The song is incredible, can you please share some information on where we can find it? Thank you
@@SpectreSoundStudios You'll need to load the ReaJS plugin (part of ReaPlugs) in any Windows VST2 host software, then load any text file that contains JSFX plugin code. All JSFX plugins are essentially text files with the plaintext code inside them. The ReaPack system is just a convenient way to install JSFX by ticking checkboxes in Reaper, rather than copying a bunch of weird code into a text file outside of Reaper and saving it to the right location. But that's how you would get non-ReaPack JSFX plugins onto your machine, copy their code from GitHub or wherever you found it into a text file, put it somewhere on your hard drive, then open the ReaJS plugin, click the "Load" button and browse to one of those text files with JSFX code in them. Alternatively, you could also use the "Edit" button on the ReaJS plugin and just copy & paste the JSFX code directly from its source into the plugin.
I guess the latest version of Reaper got rid of "Extensions" in the toolbar. I can't find the other things to properly install these. Do you have a workaround? Thanks!
Seems these Saike one's are not in here any more, or am i missing something? The JS repository is already there with the reaper DLL, and i just installed all, cause im lazy and like to explore anyway. But none of these seem to be there anymore.
Glenn,I was looking for sounds,especially since unlike most DAW's it didn't come with a library. I have Ableton live lite installed as well,came with the interface ,is it likely to create conflicts ,having two DAW's?
I bought Amplitube 4 for a couple of amps. Mesa Deal, I wanted Cannibal Corpse sound, Mark III and Mark IV for Metallica stuff and ENGL for Gary Holt sound. I was stuck with the Mesa Deal, I couldn’t even get roughly what I expected. Mark IV is ok, I somehow managed. ENGL honestly thrilled me even though I least expected it from him. It’s amazing how much difference there is in guitar boxes and speakers. It takes a lot of time to try all possible variants and I, unfortunately, don't have that much time ...
I tried the amplitude Mesa stuff and some of the orange. It’s gotten better than a couple years ago when I first tried their stuff but I’d recommend going stl tones or ml sound instead
Any suggestion for amp sim plug in? I just want to start mixing for my own satisfaction. Just want to try to connect my guitar straight to audio interface and play with “reamp” kind of work
Nalex is terrific for a free plugin, but for paid plugins my favorite is the Neural Dsp stuff. I also have Bias FX 2 but I find that the Fortin NTS and Cali Suite are much easier to work with out of the box and are priced at around 120 bucks. There is no harm trying out the Nalex stuff though, it's free.
Glenn...I can't thank you and Adam enough about hyping up Reaper to the point where I actually decided to give it a shot and buy it. I was using Studio One Pro (which I paid like $400 for) for a ep project and my cpu would crap out only in that particular DAW. So then I got the Cakewalk by Bandlab DAW which is free. Worked great...until the automation part was failing. Had to ditch that. I had $60 left in my paypal account. So I said fuck it. Let's try Reaper. And I love it! May not be the coolest looking graphic wise but it's just as good as any other DAW out there and the automation doesn't have a "FUCK YOUR MIX" function like Cakewalk did. 🤗
Hey Glen, so like 6 months ago I applied for uni and chose engineering but I didn’t know what the fuck I even wanted to do, I got accepted and recently I decided that audio engineering is the way to go for me; however, the university doesn’t have a designated program for sound eng. my question is, does software or electrical engineering have any carry over to audio engineering? Luv u glen:)

Woe! Nice! Thanks a million!
Glenn,I was looking for sounds,especially since unlike most DAW's it didn't come with a library. I have Ableton live lite installed as well,came with the interface ,is it likely to create conflicts ,having two DAW's?
Beautiful! Thank you!
Been using cool edit pro 15 years, will use it for the next 51 years.
No plug ins, whatever they are.
Even fruity loops seems better than reaper
Awesome. More great free things for Reaper.
thnx, nothing better than free. I have lost so much money on software over the past years. Time to et a little work done for free.
Is that song out Yet? It was epic
Best thumbnail
Why does it say it has malware ?
This kicks ASS!
Thank you so much for this dude!
Hey Glenn, have you ever tried the Soldano or Mesa amps sims in amplitube 4?
I bought Amplitube 4 for a couple of amps. Mesa Deal, I wanted Cannibal Corpse sound, Mark III and Mark IV for Metallica stuff and ENGL for Gary Holt sound. I was stuck with the Mesa Deal, I couldn’t even get roughly what I expected. Mark IV is ok, I somehow managed. ENGL honestly thrilled me even though I least expected it from him. It’s amazing how much difference there is in guitar boxes and speakers. It takes a lot of time to try all possible variants and I, unfortunately, don't have that much time ...
I tried the amplitude Mesa stuff and some of the orange. It’s gotten better than a couple years ago when I first tried their stuff but I’d recommend going stl tones or ml sound instead
Any suggestion for amp sim plug in? I just want to start mixing for my own satisfaction. Just want to try to connect my guitar straight to audio interface and play with “reamp” kind of work
Try the Nalex stuff dude , it’s free and it’s killer .
Nalex is terrific for a free plugin, but for paid plugins my favorite is the Neural Dsp stuff. I also have Bias FX 2 but I find that the Fortin NTS and Cali Suite are much easier to work with out of the box and are priced at around 120 bucks. There is no harm trying out the Nalex stuff though, it's free.
The Ignite Emissary and NaDir IR loader are really great.
Th u and their rig libraries ,bias sux in my opinion
Glenn...I can't thank you and Adam enough about hyping up Reaper to the point where I actually decided to give it a shot and buy it. I was using Studio One Pro (which I paid like $400 for) for a ep project and my cpu would crap out only in that particular DAW. So then I got the Cakewalk by Bandlab DAW which is free. Worked great...until the automation part was failing. Had to ditch that. I had $60 left in my paypal account. So I said fuck it. Let's try Reaper. And I love it! May not be the coolest looking graphic wise but it's just as good as any other DAW out there and the automation doesn't have a "FUCK YOUR MIX" function like Cakewalk did. 🤗
Thank you so much for the tip!
Hey Glen, so like 6 months ago I applied for uni and chose engineering but I didn’t know what the fuck I even wanted to do, I got accepted and recently I decided that audio engineering is the way to go for me; however, the university doesn’t have a designated program for sound eng. my question is, does software or electrical engineering have any carry over to audio engineering? Luv u glen:)
You're awesome, thanks!
