Tommy-boy.
with greatest respect i do a ton of audio editing
in rpr every day mate.
i'm doing a v difficult song now with lots of fancy editing.
has everything i need for editing.
i do it all the time mate.
tell me a feature youve found for audio editing it doesnt do ??
cos youve lost me on this point.
there are lots of triks also.
mebe you didnt discover some of em ??

re external hardware integration. i dont do it....
but a recent release allows this . correct me if i'm wrong someone.
heres a thread today about external hardware integration.
Best way to strap hardware across master bus? - Cockos Confederated Forums

with respect i think rpr's midi is more than basic.
(i use another package for wild sophisticated midi work/score/notation editing...
cost is 50 buks.).

re control room. thats a nice feature. but the fact extra
mixes are being created within the pc as well as the main stereo mix for playback prolly means added
computer processing overhead i suspect.
add in the fact the user is prolly playing back lots of traks n fx...
..well u get the picture. need a powerfull pc i suspect.
i dont do it...but...i suspect with a multi out sound device
and useing rpr's routing in conjunction with external monitor mixer being
fed from the sound device would realise the same result.
someone correct me if i'm wrong.


d. gauss.
i agree. about the gui. works for me.
i suspect i work same as you.
like a big ole multitrack tape machine.
the v2 gui looks dam dam nice to me.
n loads of wonderfull themes users have done.
look v pretty to me.
ive done boatloads of codeing in my life,
and would suggest while over the top graphics/gui's seem nice on the surface.
there is a potential downside ive found depending how coded.
viz....over the top sometimes = more n more computer resources used.

in business apps i was always suspicious of over the top graphics/gui's , cos i often found it was marketing related. and sometimes the app didnt ...underneath the glitz... address user needs properly.
but in rpr's case its very deep imho.
