I'm new to DAW's in general, but before discovering Reaper, I was using cubase le 4. If I wanted to double a guitar track, I would just copy the track, and then adjust the delay on that track however many ms I wanted. Is there a way to do something similar in reaper? I got around it by creating a send to a new track, and adding a delay effect to the second track. It works. Just wondered if there was another way. And Reaper is a fantastic program!! Thanks Saddle
If the track is solid all the way through zoom into the beginning and highlight it and left click and drag it how much you want.If you have,"Snap" on it will go to the next defined line. I have my,"Snap" toggle shortcut on Left shift+S.You can do this/customize actions in Actions/Show action list and type snap and then define what keys you want for keyboard actions if you are not happy with the default keyboard short cuts. If the track is in bits then highlight the 1st part and hold down the Ctrl key and then highlight all the other bits and then do as the 1st part above. You can also make,"Bits" into a group.Once all high lighted press the G key.To un-group right click on a bit and use the Group option to change it's behaviour. HTH :)
..or just use the "JS: time adjustment" plugin on your "doubled" guitar. (btw, ever tried recoding the guitar 2x (L-R), instead of doing this copy and delay to get "stereo" sound?)
Thanks, I was making it way too hard. On my old four track system I always laid down two tracks and just tried to play as close as I could. I really like that effect. This is the quick and dirty way.
Indubitably... Couldn't agree more... Always did, always will. But, this multi-tracking with DAW's is FUN! The things you can do. I kinda miss my patch bay, but Reaper is changing that.
