[Rwp] Using envelope points with ReaAccess

[david hindmarch]

perfect sense, I will   implement ReaEar, and see if I can achieve what I 
want.
Thanks for getting back to me.

Hi,

I'm teaching someone who is particularly keen to use ReaEar but find the
keymap difficult, understandably. However, there are two great things
about ReaEar, which I do really like. What I want to do ideally is to
see if I can create a keymap including macros that will enable Osara and
ReaEar to function concurrently so I can have the best of both and offer
it to others who are interested. This should be theoretically possible
since one can enable and disable ReaEar.

What I like about ReaEar is the way it handles metering, since it
enables you to monitor a track and the master simultaneously and also to
press j and k to get a very rough picture of the wave forms rms. I find
this particularly useful when determining how to set a noise gate etc.

Also, ReaEar incorporates customisable multi-press functionality, which,
given that we're running out of keys, is brilliant. I have configured
some keys with up to six presses, meaning that we can use the keyboard
to do so much more. For example, I have it set so that one press of f
works in the familiar way but a double press brings up the input effects
chain dialogue etc.

Hope this makes sense,

Justin
