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:

HeDa_Loudness Graph v2.0pre5

Here is pre5 with some changes in the keyboard combinations to select tracks. CTRL click on a meter was to solo that track. Now it is to select multiple tracks. Same as in REAPER. SHIFT tracks also selects from first to second selected tracks.

So, now the mouse wheel on meters can affect all selected tracks then. Same to the IL adjust middle mouse button on meter. It can adjust IL of all selected tracks at once.  IL needs to be calculated for a while before you can  middle click and change it with precision.  The existing analyzed part of the graph will shift approximately too to reflect these changes via mouse wheel or middle button.

Also, the new right click menu in the track's icon provides "add or remove children tracks" of the selected track.

v2.0pre5 (2016-02-17)

+ Preserves the order of tracks when added. (global option)
+ Selected tracks background highlight
# CTRL click on meter selects/deselects track(s) and can select multiple tracks now)
+ CTRL drag to select/deselect multiple tracks in one click
+ SHIFT click on meter to select contiguous tracks from first selected to second selected
# MMB and MW on meter now can modify fader of all selected tracks relatively, not only one under mouse.
+ MW on meter: shifts ML/SL/IL graph(s) too by an "approximate value"
+ MMB on meter: shifts ML/SL/IL graph(s) too by an "approximate value"
# ALT click now to toggle solo track (it was CTRL click previously)
+ ALT drag to toggle solo multiple tracks in one click
# ALT click in Show/Hide graph buttons to solo in graph
+ IL numbers in meters are now track's reset buttons too
+ Right click menu on meter icon
+ Add/Remove children tracks of a folder track
# fix: crash sometimes removing tracks

HeDa Loudness Graph v2.0pre1

It has been intense, but the new version of Loudness Graph is here and it is better than ever :-) There are some parts of the code that have been completely rewritten, and new features that make it v2.0, also to avoid confusion with v1.x because the new file format for the data files is not compatible with the v1.x format.

The most important part is the new automatic bus creation. No more post fader worries. Just select the track and add it or remove it.

Read also the new documentation page for more information about what's new: http://reaper.hector-corcin.com/documentation-heda-loudness-graph2

HeDa Freezer

HeDa_Freezer is a little script to automatically freeze all tracks in the project. All MIDI tracks for now. Maybe later I add the option to freeze audio tracks, and both. For now, basically, it searches for items in a track and if there is a MIDI item, it will freeze it.

There is a special case, when you want to freeze a track that has the VSTi and receives MIDI from children tracks. In this case is the empty track with the VSTi, the one needing freeze. It doesn't automatically detect them yet, but you can put an * at the end of the track name to force to freeze that track.

I like at some stage of the project to freeze all MIDI tracks and I was losing time searching for non frozen MIDI tracks. Yes this is useful only if you have many many tracks. It will also freeze each track one by one, which may help in some cases where freezing many tracks at the same time caused a crash.

As always, any suggestions to improve this script welcome.
