[Rwp] OSARA key map

Tue Feb 24 11:07:06 EST 2015

It's standing wave studios I think.

It's a command line console thing,
where you can type commands to nudge volume, and pan and lot of other 
stuff, for faster work flow.

yes, we sonar users are spoiled brats.
Even with Jsonar, everything just works and is nicely already done,
reaper is like a motorcycle
dirt bike while sonar is like a silver eagle trailer bus with all the 
wet bar, and fridge, and snack bar built in, with reaper, you get a 
hammer and screw drivers, and a pile of wood, and it's up to you to 
build your own 'grin'.

But, there are things to love about reaper.
Go get gn luca's key map,
it's pretty good start to a good basic documented set of tools,
to get some work done,
now I'm off to see if the old numeric key pad grow items and all that 
stuff I loved about reaccess is still there, or if we have to create it 
again.

I don't think reaper is gonna replace sonar any time soon, but I would 
like to become comfortable enough with it to do a real project or two, 
now it's just more or less a slicer dicer,
sonar's pitch time stretching is much better but a pain in the butt to 
implement, and reaper's method of doing this kind of thing is just so easy.
The sticky parts for me are midi editing and automation,
I have to come to terms with that somehow.
Well, here's going forward.

Lets see what happens this month.
