HeDa Scripts for REAPER

REAPER is a great DAW with an extensive capability to be customized and extended with scripts. In this page I want to share some of the scripts I create. I hope you like them. You can support me with a paypal donation Thank you.

To start, you have to install HeDaScripts Manager and then use it inside REAPER to automatically install the rest of the scripts:

Hello friends

I didn't manage to finish Track Inspector in march. I might be more busy in April, but I hope to finish the script during next month.
Thank you everybody for the support, feedback, ideas and your nice e-mails and donations. You really all are contributing to make this app better. :-)

Here is an update with the following changes:

Cheers!

+ Sends presets buttons (Left-click to create send from preset,
    CTRL+click to save current track as preset,
    Right-click to go to preset track,
    ALT+click to remove preset)
+ Select multiple sends/receives to adjust gain (CTRL click to select multiple)
+ ALT+click on sends/receives to remove them
+ Double click on sends/receives to reset to +0.0 db
+ colored sends option
+ colored fx groups option
+ show/hide buttons for wet knobs, and fx groups.
# fix: refresh FX groups when deleting FX
# fix: last touched track when adding fx

I also forgot to mention here that there is a small update but very important, for Loudness Graph that allows to use it at the same time with Track Inspector

HeDa_Loudness Graph v2.0rc3 (2016-03-29)
# + - buttons to change meter width adds/removes one entire meter.
# fix: allow other dpMeter instances. Also to use Track Inspector at the same time.
# fix: could not select last mater if master track was not analyzed
# some small fixes

HeDa_Track Inspector v1.0pre4

update, new features and fixes:

Track FX Groups is a number group that you can assign to each FX. Clicking in the number groups below the FX list floats all FX from the group, SHIFT-click toggles bypass to all FX in the group. If ALL button is activated. it will work on all tracks, not just the selected track.

Automatic assignment of groups using the FX name can be enabled or disabled. To specify the names, you must edit the global options file for now because the UI for that is not done. It is included with some example groups. You can add as many groups as needed.

v1.0pre4 (2016-03-21)
+ Track FX groups (toggle bypass group, toggle float group)
+ Auto FX group assignment based in FX name options
+ Hide effects or instruments prefixes option.
+ Track Automation panel (preliminar design)
# wet/dry knob opacity when wet=0
# fix: delete selected track crash
# fix: delete FX with ALT+click crash
# fix: do not create duplicated aux tracks
# fix: faders can be used to write automation too. (thanks @mpl)
# fix: autocreate aux tracks again if not found when opening new/old projects.

HeDa_Loudness Graph 2.0rc2

Update

You should remove all previous files and extract the new files in the zip. Because some files have changed the name. It is ready to be released to the REAPER community soon. As always, tell me if you have any problems with it so I can help you.

>>> If your accumulative donations here are more than $10.00 check if your name appears in the ABOUT window correctly or if you want it to be changed or removed.

If you don't say anything I assume it is ok and I'll be releasing the app in a few days if no major bug appears due to the latest modifications.

Thank you all for your support and I hope to hear from you and I would love to see screen-shots of your projects working with the Loudness Graph

HeDa_Loudness Graph v2.0rc1

This release includes a number of new features described in the changelog in pre6. Documentation needs to be updated with the new features but you can experiment with it and discover them easily. Now to release the final version, I'll wait a bit to see if new small bugs appear and update the documentation and maybe a video tutorial if I have time. Thank you for your support in patreon and the donations in paypal ! I'm glad you support this work.

When updating from previous version you need to overwrite all files, including the global options.lua file because it has new options inside needed. If you have customized them, you can create a copy of your options first and compare them with the new options file.
