Hey all. As the subject line indicates, I have finally installed Reaper,
5.01, just downloaded today, 64-bit on 64-bit Windows 10. OSARA 64-bit,
SWS extension 2.8.0.0. I've imported the latest keymap from the OSARA
website. Running NVDA 2015.3. So here we go with the dumb questions.
Do menus work in Reaper? Because hitting alt doesn't seem to bring
anything up for me, I have to go into screen review and route with
nvda-num-slash and then click with num-slash to get into the menus. For
a while the actions list was being weird and not appearing, I had to
restart Reaper a couple of times to import the keymap, but now f4 brings
it up, so that's fixed at least.
I'm pretty sure the new keymap is working correctly because I hit ctrl-t
and it inserted a new track and put up an edit field for me to type in
the name, and the track had that name, or at least, it read that name
and some values when I hit up and down arrow. Obviously I haven't messed
with it much, that's all I've done, though it did seem to save my
settings from installing it under 8.1 since it referenced my pro sound
card in the newly inserted track. I hope to begin working my way through
the manual this week, that's the recommended course of action to get
started right? I take it nobody's done any podcasts on OSARA? I know
somebody here did some on reaccess and I have those, e.g. on recording
midi, so I'll try checking those out as well, I assume the general ideas
will be helpful.
