[RWP] In Reaper, how do you organize your song's build?

[David P Shortland]

Hi & Greetings from The Great Southern Land.

In all my time in the music industry, most times you will have one 
instrument per track.

This emulates how it all came down from the Studios of old.

Having one instrument per track, and then using Markers for Intro, Verse, 
Chorus etc is a much better way to go.

To Insert a Marker use the Keystroke Shift plus M.
This will give you a Dialog Box, just fill in the relevant fields.

To Access the Markers at any time just use the numbers 1 thru 0 on the main 
part of your keyboard, and if your project has more than 10 Markers Left & 
Right Bracket keys also Navigate thru Markers.

Safe Prosperous & Happy New Year

Subject: [RWP] In Reaper, how do you organize your song's build?

Hello all,

I have to admit that I'm share in the organisation of my songs building
in Reaper.

Solution one: for each part of the song, create one track for the
introduction, a second one for verses, a third for chorus and other
intermediar for some improvisations between these majorr pieces.
Advantage: a clear building based on chronology.
Disadvantage: A lot and lot of track, because for each pieces, there is
multiple instruments so multiple tracks again.

Solution two:
One track for one instrument, subdivised in items.
Advantage: Not so much tracks.
Disadvantage: If a reorganisation is needed, a complexe process has
requiered, for example to insert a piece between two items.

I'm curious to have your vision about this subject.

P.S.: thank you all, really, for your big help despite my numerous
questions and my bad English.

Alexis ROBIN
