[Rwp] Accessible way to manipulate envelopes with Osara and Reaper 5

[Justin]

Hi,

If you want an abrupt change between two envelope points, you just need 
to set the shape of the first point to square. This means that the fade 
will happen pretty much instantly, but just slowly enough to avoid a pop 
so you shouldn't need the additional points,

If you use touch and not latch i don't believe the automation will snap 
back and there is a write automation to the end of project action in any 
case,

Justin
