Its more a matter of which workflow you prefer. As far as mixing goes Reaper on mac or PC vs Sonar vs Pro Tools vs Logic. They are all just as capable of churning out great mixes. Its comes down to the user and how familiar they are with its workflow, settings and the native and third party plug ins they choose to use. whether you are a blind mixer or not. Anything with vocals on <a href="http://www.soundcloud.com/experiment667/" class="">www.soundcloud.com/experiment667/</a> with vocals was either done in Pro Tools or Reaper on the Mac, and my guess is no one will be able to tell which was done in which program.<div class=""><br class=""><div><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On Apr 5, 2015, at 8:45 PM, Christopher-Mark Gilland via RWP <<a href="mailto:rwp@bluegrasspals.com" class="">rwp@bluegrasspals.com</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div class="">I've changed the subject to better reflect things, which quite honestly, I'm feeling a little stupid for not doing earlier.<br class=""><br class="">Patrick, I'm interested in hearing something either on the Windows side, or the mac side that was done 100% in Reaper all the way from the first note, all the way to the final mixed mastered and ready to go rendered project. People have sent me stuff that was instrumental, but I'm also curious with good mixsing skills what Reaper could do with a lead vocal track. Do you, or anyone else have anything you could share with me which has vocals as well as music, so I can hear the true power of Reaper in such a setting?<br class=""><br class="">Chris.<br class=""><br class="">---<br class="">Check out my web site at:<br class=""><a href="http://www.clgproductions.net" class="">http://www.clgproductions.net</a><br class="">----- Original Message ----- From: "Patrick Perdue via RWP" <rwp@bluegrasspals.com><br class="">To: "Reapers Without Peepers" <rwp@bluegrasspals.com><br class="">Sent: Sunday, April 05, 2015 8:29 PM<br class="">Subject: Re: [Rwp] My!

Yes neither of those plug ins give you full access in the same way you can make it the last touched track or navigate it with VO on the mac. I don’t know if this has since been solved but it was tricky at one point to get to the master I/O button on windows to say change your outputs from 1/2 to say 17/18 if you were using something like the A&H Zed R16 or the PreSonus Studio Live mixers.<br class=""><br class=""><blockquote type="cite" class="">On Apr 5, 2015, at 7:09 PM, James Teh via RWP <rwp@bluegrasspals.com> wrote:<br class=""><br class="">On 6/04/2015 9:03 AM, theoreomonster--- via RWP wrote:<br class=""><blockquote type="cite" class="">One thing to note here.

You can't focus the master track (i.e. make it the last touched track), but you can certainly access parameters on it.
