[RWP] Sidechaining in Reaper 4x

Sun Oct 13 05:41:18 EDT 2013

Hi list,
shift+I gives access to the I-o for last touched track, is not useful 
for creating sends, to do that you have to use the letter I. Shift+I 
lets you set channels as in 1/2=3/4 once the send has been created from 
the I/o dialogue.
