[RWP] Some basic reaper questions.

[Scott Chesworth]

Hi David, good to see you here.

To answer your questions:
1 As yet, there is no support for meters in ReaAccess. It's one of the
dealbreakers that means I'm not yet using Reaper to track real
instrumentation and is a gap that needs to be filled. If the screen
reader you're using has some sort of virtual mouse, the meters did get
exposed the last time I checked so explore around the track name and
you should find them. Not a perminant solution.
2 When using VST plugins, try clicking the button labeled "UI" in the
fx window. This switches to a standard plugins interface, and some
VST's expose parameters here.
3 It should indeed be possible to tweak plugins via a midi controller.
What model are you running? Try adding it in Preferences -> Control
Surfaces -> Find.

All a bit vague I know, you've hopped on the wagon of a project that
is still very much in the early stages.
