Full series coming over the next few weeks! Keep an eye out as they get released...
Just bought an interface and mic and was looking to get started with Reaper. You could not have come at a better time, thank you 🙏
thankyou so much for this! I'm new to Reaper and this is just what I'm looking for.
So great to see you again Adam!
Originally, I began my digital recording experience with a now geriatric program called CoolEdit Pro, which eventually became Adobe Audition 3.0.
Being as it was what could nowadays be called a "destructive DAW", and that I was basically transitioning from an all analog to magnetic tape/adat format?
Adobe Audition 3.0 initially was a great stepping stone that familiarly "felt" like the prior environment I was accustomed to, and during that time I was actually able to
do work on some independent label multinational releases, however...
Once I became interested in full support for VST plugins such as EZDrummer or virtual synths? It became clear that I was going to have to move on to a
more competent modern DAW.
On my older 3rd gen Intel i7 Win10 PC I began tinkering with StudioOne4 Artist, but ultimately Reaper became the obvious choice.
Yet regardless I found that my prior workflow confidence and overall speed in Audition took quite a frustratingly dramatic hit in the process.
Recently I just switched over from that aging 3rd gen Intel PC to a modestly competent 4th gen (i7-4770) Intel iMac (OS Catalina).
While obviously not the latest and greatest technology? It does what I need with no frills.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Anyway (I'll try and wrap this up lol),
not long after I rebuilt/upgraded this iMac? I thought that I'd give the whole Presonus StudioOne Sphere subscription thing a go.
After a few months however? It's just not for me. Not right now anyways, so...?
Here I am now once again returning to Reaper, and quite eager to finally learn how to wrangle in it's customization, and once and for all fully harness it's vast potential.
I'm genuinely hopeful that this new series of your's can potentially help me suss it all out, and get back into that creative workflow once again.
Good Luck, and
Thank You Adam.
Hope you & your's are safe and well.
Cheers!
✌🤟🖖
Thank you man.. how could I reach you as I have couple problems about distored guitar mixing (VST Guitar)?
I’ve been using reaper for two years. I first downloaded it when I saw your second iteration of this series. I’m extremely excited for this updated series.
Fantastic news, new version of your lectures. I'll start again from the bottom.
So much respect for your work.
Haircut and beard trim are a good look - thanks for vid!
I’m pretty proficient in Reaper but I’m excited about this series! Always more to learn.
Reaper is the best daw for mixing imo just easier to use and not trying to squeeze me for every dollar
Excited to watch this series renewed! What a timing, as I've just bought my first serious interface, and I'll be recording guitars more seriously than ever. And while deciding for an interface, I had stumbled across the ProTools-Reaper dilemma (the pressure from the industry and friends around us to go towards the ProTools route). Thanks Adam. Cheers!
I went from a VS 1880 / BR1180 to m-powered PT. Then I discover Reaper and have never looked back.
Super excited for this new series!
Loved your previous Reaper 101 series, and very much looking forward to this one.
I'm soo excited brother, I won't miss even a single update on this series❤
Always amazing content!
Yessss... I've been waiting for this! 😊
Excellent - just started Reaper 2 weeks ago and your videos have been great - thanks so much !
im new to music production and i been using reaper for 4 months and my mixes are sounding great its super easy to use . the last daw i used before 10 years ago was garageband lmao
Yeah! I Saw so much videos of the old series and i will love the new ones! I´m sure! Great to see you!
Short Quote 7:00 it runs on everything AND i literally NEVER had any Problems with connections to hardware and routing
thanks so much for doing a "redux" of this series...im a fairly new reapist and very much enjoyed your previous work but am very much looking forward to working thru this series as well...thanks again be well always 😃
Glad to see an update to this.
I checked out Reaper because of your videos. Took a minute to get sorted but can’t imagine ever going back. Thanks mate!
Hey Adam, I had bookmarked the old lessons...watched your vid about making all kinds of changes, (I guess professional and personal)...but remember you saying to watch for a new in depth guide to Reaper and here I am as you promised! Cheers sir! Hope all is well. Can't wait to get started!
Looking forward to it...but also in the setup explain how people can actually use thier exisiting computer speakers as well before they can afford monitors if you can or if it is even possible. The problem with most set-up tutorilas is the author explains "their way" instead of "all the ways" to get sound up and running...and other preferenaces. I am new...so these are things I want to know. Thank you.
Looking forward to this series. Been planning on re-trying Reaper for a while. I used it for a bit a few years ago but I found it really frustrating, probably because I didn't take the time to tweak it. 👍
This is the video I was hoping existed, thanks so much for sharing your knowledge. When I can afford it I'll defiantly invest in the course, this free info is amazing in the meantime thank you.
Thank You. I need to learn more than just making a couple guitar tracks and layering them. I am the most newb but I am finally ready to do this. I want to utilize my old keyboard Casio midi connected for making backing tracks using vst pads and beating the drums out on keys. Lol.
Yhank you Adam for this series.
I picked up the Ultimate Reaper Guide two weeks ago and then my pc died on me! Lady luck my friend!! lol So waiting on a replacement pc to start the full course! I'm guessing as you mentioned here, the new updates in 7+ will be somewhat the same in URG? Always awesome! Thanks Adam!
amazing cant wait
Excited😃
Thanks man! I come from the 4 and 8 track days of the 80’s. Image my surprise when I started playing guitar again 2 yrs ago at 48! I was like Hol7 shi7! The effects and stuff , the whole “modeling” think blew me away. I sat in awe of how much money it would have cost me in just effects alone in the 80’s -90’s. Amazing stuff. I got 4 daws and I choosing Reaper they’re the less greedy of the bunch at least for now 😂
Im in!!!
I can't wait. Planning on buying my first interface soon!
I started on Reaper with my first interface and it's the best, can't recommend it enough
Thanks!
I’ll have to have another go with Reaper to see whether it can suit my workflow. For most things that I do Logic Pro is my go-to for music creation and I don’t then bother moving over to Reaper after the composing phase. Although I have a reasonable range of third party instruments so I could probably do most things there are things like Drummer and Alchemy that I am just used to as part of my process.
Yes!
Man, thanks for all
Just me being curious. Is it just my eyes going bad or does the video look quite gray. Either way. Happy to see this back.
Nice job Mr. Steel. I hope to see you at NAMM
Love the shirt, I had one just like it in the seventies ;-)
WOW. Cosmic coincidence. I just start watching your highly watching Part 1 video today. I'll watch this and other new videos instead most likely. I'm an amateur veteran of several DAWs. And still wondering if Reaper is too "techie" for me. I'll hear what you have to say.
Been using Reaper for 5 years now but always need reminding how powerful it is and what it can do. Any chance doing a PDF guide/ manual
Reaper deserve HDR vids:) all best
Because it is simple, logical and powerful under the hood! 👍
I’ve sent tons of folks your way for reaper advice 🤘🏽
Good video! I would have loved for you to show a lot of the features you're showing. Similar to Benn Jordan's video showing FL studio 21. Funny and informative, that video really convinced me that FL was something to keep an eye on (as a CUbase-user myself). I would have loved a similar thing for Reaper but I haven't seen it yet 😄
Reaper can do everything FL and Cubase can do and more, and if there are features that vanilla Reaper is missing, chances are there are 100s of community made scripts for it.
YES!!!
Please cover kontakt’s multitumbral routing and the way to do it pls!!!
As an original purchaser of the first 'Ultimate Reaper Course' do I seriously need to get the updated version? A full-price upgrade may be a bit expensive.
Hello Adam! love all your videos! I have a problem, I have some tracks that i send them to reverb tracks. i also send these tracks to a stem group so i can render the stems without the reverb. the problem is when i playback my track i get sound from both the stem and the reverb track. if i mute the reverb i cannot hear it obviously and if i mute the stem track i cannot hear the tracks that dont have reverb cuz they are sent directly to stems. what can i do?
I’m interested in editing and mastering voiceover recordings. Maybe even some mixing if I have to have music in the voiceover.
Little Trekkie insert here at 05:00: It's called LCARS. :D
Yes yes, I know LCARS well, on my home desk I have a full LCARS desk pad. Just trying to relate it to the non-trekkers out there 😅
@@adamsteelproducer Oh, that's wonderful. I would love to see that :D
PS: There's being a Star Trek fan and there's being wrong.
PPS: Lower decks, lower decks.
Adam, if the pro mix academy reaper course has already been purchased, does it get upgraded to the revised version?
It’s a separate new course, you’ll have to ask pro mix academy about that but I don’t think so. I don’t control their side of things, I just film
I hope you're still around to answer this, my guitar has some unnatural distortion plugged in raw, I just wonder if it might be dust around the pick ups. My bass did not have that. I'm using a 4Gen Solo Focusrite. Do I just need some canned air around the pick ups for this?
I like Reaper 🎉🎉🎉
Looking through the playlist of your last Reaper course, you seem to cover a lot of stuff about plugins but you dont seem to get into the mixing process. From what I see, Reaper attracts people who do live recording of instruments like Pro Tools does. So I am hoping you will do a course on how to take recorded tracks of real instruments and vocals and go through the whole mixing process, EQ, compression, mastering, etc to make a complete song.
Edit: I see you have a paid course for Reaper, I'll check that out.
This course is specifically not focused on mixing, because mixing itself is a completely separate discipline from actually using the software. The new Ultimate Reaper Guide does however include a full section where we record and mix a song and show plenty of tips and tricks that are useful when doing that exact job
@@adamsteelproducer Thanks for reply. But I am very confused how you can say that mixing is completely separate from using a DAW as from what Ive seen that is the primary use of a DAW in the few tutorials that Ive seen.
🥳🥳🥳🥳
I stopped using Reaper as i can't get factory presets to show in 90% of my vst synths & fx. I use tracktion with no preset problems
Your Sweetwater link doesnt show your recommendations
ive been using reaper for 121 days and it says 60 is max for the trial version.. i dont think it will ever expire and it just works fine
Oooh ...
Looking forward to the series.. I watched the original series, bought license, started to use, but in the end I reverted back to..... Adobe Audition 1.5. The later versions of Windows are starting to act a bit funny in compatibility mode, so will have to migrate over at some point!
Hi, I want to have try at writing incidental music fof tv programmes.... What hardware do I need?
nothing really, if you really want then just a get midi keyboard. you'd need more plugins and libraries than hardware.
From a functionality standpoint and workflow standpoint what’s the opinions about Reaper vs Studio One? I’ve been playing around with both and haven’t formed an opinion yet. Leaning toward reaper though.
@@dfasht1304 interesting, I’ll think about that!
Reaper hands down. S1 feels like a more easier and intuitive pretty UI daw but it doesn't come anywhere close to flexibility and functionality of Reaper.
@@rano12321 I’ve actually really gotten into reaper recently, and I am loving the customisability. It takes more effort to learn it, but I think in the long run it’s going to be worth it. And I’m happy with it so far.
Well if Adam Steel uses it...
I wish there was an EASIER WAY to manipulate the COLOR SCHEMES...
6.85? 7.05 is the current public version.
He meant at the time of the recording
then the video is a lot older than I thought@@b.h.f5116
Please: right click -->tools ! frustrated users of Cubase and Studio One will come to you !
Everytime I see this guy his hair is shorter than last time! I think he went from 28 to 38 in one year! 🙉
so you're still around...
Not really, these were filmed months ago and are scheduled for release
You have to expect this.... weren't you supposed to stop posting, as in your video 2 months ago, due to the Audient job? Not hating, just trying to understand because that video started with "no clickbait" but you know... I'm a bit annoyed
I stopped filming, everything that comes out in this series was filmed before my new role at Audient. This series is the last thing that will come out.
payed daw record drums...try to get reaper to have a drum vst show up is the biggest waste of time you can watch all the so called youtube experts good luck
I used Reaper for over 10 years, but I had to stop using it because
1) The piano roll is some of the worst in the industry, they are still trying to copy/clone a 1990s version of Cubase... I have advanced so far past this I can't even use Reaper anymore because Reaper's piano roll doesn't even have 2% of the functionality of the musical editor I coded. I've gone into multi-dimensional harmonic systems, and these Reaper guys are still trying to figure out how to copy a "CC event editor lane" from Cubase from 1992 and they can't see or comprehend anything beyond that. It's extremely basic, un-innovative, backwards, and sad. Switching from my own program which is like a Lamborghini, over to Reaper's editor which is like a child's Power Wheels car, I just can't do it. The people behind Reaper have no clue what is going on in music, their vision of what is possible is so small and so myopic, so limited, they are still stuck in the 1990s and they can't do anything except clone 40 year old software. -- They literally don't have any other move.
2) No modular graph like Bitwig, Max4Live, etc.
1) There are some scripts that fix that, but you're right, Reaper could improve its piano roll.
2) Since v6, there is a track wiring view, which is a bit complicated, like Reaper's routing system, but allows you to see what's connected to what, and how the signal flow is going.
Come from Cubase 12, composer with lots of orchestral stuff done in Reaper. With scripts I'm able to have the same midi edition power. Reaper is not 'plug and play" to have your dream DAW. And maybe also you have so specific needs that you have to stuck on a DAW, but honestly in 2023 reaper community is so huge that it,s difficult to not find what you want
I've reluctantly arrived at the conclusion (over several years) that I need Cubase for working with ( particularly external ) MIDI, Dorico for working with notation, and REAPER for everything else.
1. The piano roll acts a bit odd especially if you've used any other DAW but if you set it up, it's faster and has way more features than other daws like FL, Cubase etc.
2. Paranormal FX router exists.
