It blows my mind how talented the people are who contribute to Reaper ReaPack and the programmers who write these scripts/actions. What an amazing group of musicians & computer experts who I admire. Great script and can't wait to try it out. Thanks for this tutorial.
Hey hope all is well with you.. your videos have been helping me navigate reaper. I hope you are well man cause I would really like to see new videos from you.
Absolutely amazing. I've dabbled with Reaper for a few years but never really committed to it. However, since I'm now trying to move away from Windows, I've decided to fully embrace Reaper - and it's so amazing that there are all these scripts for free. But they're not just free - THEY ARE SUPERB! Props to everyone.
Great video! Was going to make one on it last year but had some issues that have since been resolved. Love the new setup, that backdrop is looking sweet with the lighting and instruments!
This is so cool. It'd be cool to also be able to assign a send/return, so that you could enable something like a reverb send, where the tracks that are further back get more of the send, and the tracks that are closer get less - I have no idea if that would work though. Amazing script, great work MPL.
Outstanding! Great script and perfect walkthrough. I gots’ta spend more time in the ReaPack stuff. There are so many delights there…hmmm, maybe a quick 5-10 interesting/useful ReaPack scripts video every week or two? If you’re looking for content ideas, that would be a cool one!
Fabulous, must try this one. As a bedroom producer having to try and learn everything I know without any support, one thing I've never really managed to sort is mono compatibility issues if I make good use of the stereo field in a mix. I say to myself that people who don't listen to my mixes on a stereo system will just have to put up with what they get, but when I lose something like a solo piece or significant instrument break on a mono speaker it is very disappointing. Do you have any advice on how I can sort this problem within a Reaper only panning layout (so without use of Panknob, widening or m/s tools etc). Always enjoy your videos - keep 'em coming 🙂
I believe there's a button on the master track for mono. I have it bound to a hotkey so I can quickly toggle it while mixing. You should be able to hear if you have phasing issues because things will have strange volume (too loud, too quiet, etc) when in mono. Toggle the mix between stereo and mono while mixing for a bit on each and you'll discover the rough edges on your track.
@@justingodesky5912 Thanks for that. Dont think Ive ever tried that one but I have things like YouLean and Metric AB on my monitoring effects set up so can use those as mono testers. The problem though is not so much the testing as getting panned tracks to get heard on a mono listening device. Id have hoped they'd be picked up and just played in mono but its as though half the volume is being lost as it the stereo track isnt summing to mono. With no mentor to ask Im left wondering if I'm doing something wrong. Should i be recording to stereo tracks instead of mono, for example? All advice welcome!
Hey Mike! One day I'll do a video on this, but in the mean time, check out this video by Dan Worrall: ruclips.net/video/spaqBr-cCFw/видео.html There's also a part 2, and honestly I had the idea to make a video on this topic until I saw Dan's video. I think he explains it better and in a more entertaining way using better music, to the point where I have scrapped that project. If I do tackle this in the future, it would be to add something to this video, but yeah make sure to check this video out and it may take a few watches to digest, but it's very good, and for me personally, I learned a lot but also, some of the stuff that I kinda knew but didn't know why, it also explained :)
I really liked the iZotope version but it never really made it to my template just cuz of all the extra steps involved. This just integrates so well :)
Looks class. It would also be pretty cool if you could change perspective to introduce depth, so that volume was linked to how much farther back you placed an item in the space. Just wondering if you saw Bryan Chi's bitwig style effects arranger/modulator scripts in the reaper forum. Haven't tried it myself, but looks amazing. Also the UI creator tool,
@@michaelpilyavskiy yes, exactly.. 3D. To be honest, it was an off the cuff remark, not sure how feasible it would be to implement and whether there would be any appreciative gain over the current layout. I just thought that it might be cool to have something that could better represent the 'soundstage' so to speak 😉
Hey David! Thanks for the recommendation for Bryan Chi! Checked it out! Bryan says it's in ReaTeam scripts, but I don't seem to see them :( Once I figure this out I'll make a vid :)
@@IDDQDSound Not a problem! Thanks for taking the time to check it out and reply. I had a bit of a break from Reaper as I was making music with people who used Ableton exculsively, and since starting to get back into it I have just been bowled over by the whole scripts side of things. The abililty people now have to customise the program's functionality and build effects etc. is truly mind boggling. Thanks for bringing these things to our attention. Keep up the good work 🤘
I think inverting the Y axis would make a ton of sense as making the source quieter puts it farther in the mix, that's just a nitpick, it looks amazing!
implemented in 2.05, but I think you mean mostly do a 3d instead 2d, because Y is a 2d projection now. The question is still open - if x is a pan, volume is a Y, what is a Z? Also should Y also be mapped to a shelf EQ?
@@michaelpilyavskiyamazing! I think that is the best representation you could get without introducing another dimension and while keeping it simple. It would be really great if you could map any plugin parameter (similar to the way Reaper plugin host allows you to) to the x/y movement alongside the pan and volume, but that would probaby be a bit tricky to implement (parallel VST pipeline?). 3D would be a whole another beast, but I think that it would be slower to work with. for me the magic with this is how FAST you can set the rough position of an element in a mix!, take the "rough" with a grain of salt :)
Excellent video and excellent capability. Request a feature if able: I would like to set a transition time between saved sets. Excellent capability for show control.
Thank you for this video. I learn a lot from your videos as a self-taught producer of my own music. This script seems very helpful visually. One scary thing about this script for me is no undo... Unless I'm missing something, changes that I made using this script are... untraceable. No undo history, no options in the script window to back out from any of the changes I made.
Hi! So a couple of things to try: When you are using this window, your "focus" changes to this window, so other hotkeys may not be available. So click in the arrange view and then hit Cmd+Z and that should take you back a step. Another thing to try is snapshots, You can save a snapshot of everything before you start working here, and then revert back if you need to. Explanation of Snapshots here if you need it: ruclips.net/video/atWmyZxob30/видео.html
Wow, this is amazing! I just tried automating the pan / volume via write mode (might be nice for a video workflow). Didn't work for me atm, did you try this or have you found a way to make this work? Otherwise I'd post in the forum, I think it would be a nice feature :)
@@IDDQDSound I'm a sound editor that switched over from Audition and between you and Kenny Gioia I was up and running in a few weeks. I really enjoy your videos!
Very nice! Marquee select is not working for me on Mac. However I can Command+click to select multiple tracks. So it's no biggie. (I have synchronised ReaPack and restarted Reaper.)
@@IDDQDSound Yes, it's 2.04. I am finding the behaviour of left drag to be erratic. Sometimes it selects no boxes at all. On another attempt it may select a box or boxes not within the marquee. Despite many attempts I haven't yet successfully selected the set of boxes I wanted via left drag.
@@michaelpilyavskiy Thanks, Michael...I can Command+click and select multiple tracks...so it's never going to bother me. Everything else seems to work perfectly.
3D is awful, because it so hard to build write editing behavious. Building sends that way would make interface very dirty, I`ll take a look what can do. I imagine maybe tiny dots at the right side of rectangle where its blitting alpha is a level of send (if they exist).
Hello. . Hope all has been well with you. Just a question. Do you have a video that would help me in Recording audio with me at the same time in Reaper. I currently have Kurzweil PC3X and I want to record a piano setting but also midi at the same time. Thanks.
Thanks for this video and what a great tool ... The only thing or maybe I was missing something is how to undo the panning and volume changes done by this script. Do you maybe have a hint for me? And thanks again 👌
Oh, just found out that the "background" version is giving undo points (but quite a lot :) and then it's also mirrored to the "normal" Version. But only when the movements are done in the "background" version. When both are open the movements of the normal version aren't reflected to the background version, only when selecting another track and then back to the one that was changed before.
@@bernhardk7929 but why not just use one of them instead of both? The number of undo points depends on how often you let go of the mouse. Each click and drag is one action. Just like if you move a pan knob, release it, and move it again, it's 2 actions. If you release the left mouse button, and then move it again, a new undo point is created from there.
Hi guys, please I need some help here... After trying this MPL extension I can't solo a track and stop hearing other track... ...a bit weird, I know, but this is happening here. Don't ask me why. Please, could someone here give me a hand...?
Is there a way to make the visual mixer show the whole track name? Mine is just showing the first word. Ex: guitar L and guitar R are both just labeled guitar.
interesting script, i was looking for a way to make and store alternative mixes of a song, but apart from re saving the song file, or duplicating the song some bars after the end thus creating two songs in one file, and mixing the second differently, so if i undersatnd correctly this script can save a static mix, levels pans, do you think this would be ideal for making an alternative mix?
Is there a way to change volume without changing anything for pan? So like then I'll be able to use it for a lot of levelling stuff without worrying about the width
Do you know how to make the solo button behave as "Solo in place"? when solo is press through the visual mixer it solo as "Solo ignoring routing"..... Thanks
Hmmm not sure! I saw you asked about it on mpl's post too. I'm (as you may have noticed) away for a few weeks but lemme know if u found a fix or else I'll try my best!
Does it start from where your mix is currently at? Or do you have to drag and drop everything into the window? When things get muted or drop in and out of the mix, is that reflected in the window?
Hi! this is the first repository that I import at all, and this message shows up : Couldn't resolve host name (6): Could not resolve host: < PLEASE HELP!!!!!!
... am a convinced fan of Michael too, but this script does'nt work under windows 7. - Don't know why. - His script always tells me to load version 3.55 or newer, still after it is done. Any good advices? - 😥
Install "Various functions" package, it is a framework for lot of my scripts. Unfortunately ReaPack doesn`t support yet high level dependencies, so I have to ask for separate install of this package on almost any script initialization.
Please advise me. To access this script and others, I just download/update reascript? I am not sure how to activate them in reaper. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.
Go to extensions>reapack>browse packages, search for visual mixer and right click to install/update. Hit apply and close the window. If you're fresh installing scripts, some need a reaper restart to show up. Do that just to be sure and then search the action list.
@IDDQD This is not going well. I already have Reapack installed and (from you great videos I think) I may have some MPL stuff already installed. I pasted the MPL Repository link and hit Go but got warned that MPL was already liked to a different URL and did I want to over-write that. I clicked Yes but all I can see in the Actions list is mpl_Visual_Mixer.lua. When I run it I'm told its not on my F: drive (which is where I run Reaper from) even though when I inspect the F: drive it is there and it seems to be in the right folder. The action mpl_VisualMixer (Background) isn't showing in my Actions list, unlike that shown in your video. Being honest, I think an idiots guide is needed for us non-geek musician producers as I find the whole installation of Reapack stuff pretty baffling (though I have managed to get the job done on previous occasions!). Thanks in hope.
my repository along X-Raym is bundled into Reapack installation. For installing new script you don`t need to install it again. Instead: go to action list -> type "browse packages" -> find "Visual mixer" -> right click -> install new version (so you change STATE of this package from none to "Install this after next sync"). Then, run action "Syncronize packages". That will update existed script or install new ones if you marked some for install. Another option is to check "ReaPack: Manage repositories..." / Options / Install new package when sync. CAUTION - this will install ALL available stuff from installed repositories.
@@michaelpilyavskiy Thanks so much for taking time to reply with those suggestions and i'll give them a go. My trouble is im a musician trying to understand the sophisticated technology of Reaper, the outer reaches of which can be quite challenging to an ageing non-geek like me ha ha. 😬😆
Thanks mpl for the response. Mike lmk if that solved the issue. I'll make a reapack tut one day but in the meantime, check out the reaper blog for a video description.

Yeah thought of a similar thing myself. Mpl checks this video ocassionally or you can ask on the forums too :)
3D is awful, because it so hard to build write editing behavious. Building sends that way would make interface very dirty, I`ll take a look what can do. I imagine maybe tiny dots at the right side of rectangle where its blitting alpha is a level of send (if they exist).

The number of undo points depends on how often you let go of the mouse. Each click and drag is one action. Just like if you move a pan knob, release it, and move it again, it's 2 actions. If you release the left mouse button, and then move it again, a new undo point is created from there.

you don`t need to import that, it is bundled with Reapack
@@michaelpilyavskiy thank you!
... am a convinced fan of Michael too, but this script does'nt work under windows 7. - Don't know why. - His script always tells me to load version 3.55 or newer, still after it is done. Any good advices? - 😥
Install "Various functions" package, it is a framework for lot of my scripts. Unfortunately ReaPack doesn`t support yet high level dependencies, so I have to ask for separate install of this package on almost any script initialization.
@@michaelpilyavskiy Thank You very much... now it works. - 📰 Sound Taxi Project ( Musician with Label ) 👍
Thank You!!?
You're welcome???
Can the visual mixer show tracks as icons not names?
not currently I'm afraid :(
2.09 will allow to show icons + hide names
@@michaelpilyavskiy thats exciting! Great job Michael. Your scripts should be intergrated in Reaper by default.)
سلام! زنده باد!
تازه کشفت کردم!
Kheilie chakerim :)
Nice song 😁
Nice singer :)
Goodbye to you, relay.
Mpl: putting plugin makers outta business since 2013 :)
Guess it beats actually using the tracks in Reaper itself? lol
For lots of tracks yeah but I'm not constantly whipping this out
Please advise me. To access this script and others, I just download/update reascript? I am not sure how to activate them in reaper. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.
Go to extensions>reapack>browse packages, search for visual mixer and right click to install/update. Hit apply and close the window.
If you're fresh installing scripts, some need a reaper restart to show up. Do that just to be sure and then search the action list.
Definitely looks pretty cool, but it isn't free
@IDDQD This is not going well. I already have Reapack installed and (from you great videos I think) I may have some MPL stuff already installed. I pasted the MPL Repository link and hit Go but got warned that MPL was already liked to a different URL and did I want to over-write that. I clicked Yes but all I can see in the Actions list is mpl_Visual_Mixer.lua. When I run it I'm told its not on my F: drive (which is where I run Reaper from) even though when I inspect the F: drive it is there and it seems to be in the right folder. The action mpl_VisualMixer (Background) isn't showing in my Actions list, unlike that shown in your video. Being honest, I think an idiots guide is needed for us non-geek musician producers as I find the whole installation of Reapack stuff pretty baffling (though I have managed to get the job done on previous occasions!). Thanks in hope.
my repository along X-Raym is bundled into Reapack installation. For installing new script you don`t need to install it again. Instead: go to action list -> type "browse packages" -> find "Visual mixer" -> right click -> install new version (so you change STATE of this package from none to "Install this after next sync"). Then, run action "Syncronize packages". That will update existed script or install new ones if you marked some for install. Another option is to check "ReaPack: Manage repositories..." / Options / Install new package when sync. CAUTION - this will install ALL available stuff from installed repositories.
@@michaelpilyavskiy Thanks so much for taking time to reply with those suggestions and i'll give them a go. My trouble is im a musician trying to understand the sophisticated technology of Reaper, the outer reaches of which can be quite challenging to an ageing non-geek like me ha ha. 😬😆
Thanks mpl for the response. Mike lmk if that solved the issue. I'll make a reapack tut one day but in the meantime, check out the reaper blog for a video description.
i had the same problem... here is how i solved it:
reaper did not found the "various functions" script from mpl... browsed for that package > installed it ... then it worked for me!
@@finngoldmark3108 niceee! I think I ran that ages ago and didn't know it's one of the things that does :)
