Hi Derek and everyone,<br>
I would like to share with everyone a usefull document to read to
review some rea-access commands. In the reaper folder there is a
file called ReaAccessHistoryEnglish.txt in which you can find the
shift+esc command with a description: here's how it's written<br>
- Stop multiselection and unselect all - Shift+Escape;<br>
Hope that helps<br>
Best regards,<br>

<div>I think this multiselect mode is part of the mystery.</div>
<div>I don't have time a t the moment to poke further, and I
don't use reaper enough to get to be expert.</div>
<div>But, the behavior is quite different when multiselect
mode is on. What's bugging me at the moment is that I
don't know how to turn it off, once it is on.</div>
<div> So, I can't quite characterize the exact behavior
between the two modes.</div>
<div>Shift+space seems to put you in that mode. It doesn't
select the current track.</div>
<div>But, it puts you in a mode where you can select
non-contiguous tracks. Arrowing to a track when multiselect
mode is on doesn't select that track. You have to press
shift+space to select it. And, as you arrow up and down,
you should hear the word, selected, when you find a track
that is selected. Press shift+space to togggle the
selection.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>However, when mutiselect mode is not on, I think you can
do the shift+downArrow thing to select more contiguous
tracks. But, if you up and down arrow in that normal mode,
you will discard all track selection except the currently
focused track. Up and down arrowing in multiselect mode
does not unselect anything by itself.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I dont' know what touched means, except that I've been
occasionally told that I'm touched. I didn't know what that
meant either.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>So guys, how do you turn multi-select mode off?</div>

<div dir="ltr">Hi.<br>
Has anyone else experienced inconsistent and unpredictable
behaviour in Reaper? I can't get anything done re copy
paste, or learn from my mistakes because it doesn't behave
the same way twice in a row. Normally this basic editing
function takes 5 minutes to learn in other audio editing
progs, yet I haven't been able to get past it in days
using reaper. Sometimes it will select items using control
right arrow, or control shift right arrow for multiple
selection, and sometimes it wont, and I have no idea
what's changed. Whether or not the track itself is
selected doesn't make a difference. I'll be selecting
items to copy and paste with no problems, then without
warning it'll stop selecting them and make it impossible
to copy anything. While training mode is on, pressing
shift down arrow says something like next track while
keeping previous tracks selected, but it doesn't work, if
I start at track 1 and press shift down arrow, all I get
is a no entry thunk, and so I have to down arrow and then
shift space everything.<br>
Sometimes after pressing shift space it says something
like multi selection mode on, and sometimes it doesn't,
and I have no idea what that means, or what I did
differently. Even if I could get it to behave consistently
for copy paste, I imagine it would be infuriating to have
to select one item at a time, one track at a time for 10
tracks or more with punch in overdubs etc. Sounds like a
nightmare scenario to me. If it were just guitar, it
wouldn't be such a big deal because I could pretty much
play in one take with just a few punched overdubs maybe,
but keyboard stuff, I have to cheat by quantizing, copying
an pasting.<br>
Hell knows what reaper's like for more complex functions.
Doubt I'll ever get to find out. And this is what I'm
curious about, is it just me that finds reaper
counterintuitive and super frustrating? Aside from just
hitting record and doing everything in a single take,
I can't see how this program could be efficient enough to
make recording a smooth experience.<br>
Apologies for the whinge, and I really do appreciate the
help I've been given. I don't regret giving cockos 38 quid
of my hard earned, but I think it's back to Sonar for me.<br>
