Seems to work fine but for one minor wrinkle (bearing in mind im' no Reaper expert), if I have the audio setup so i can record into Reaper through the interface I can't hear anything when i play my midi controller, but I can hear the parts already written. If i change back to the driver i was using before installing the interface I can't then record using it. I'm sure there's a simple solution Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigRedX Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 Regarding plug-ins (VSTs). There's a great temptation when you first start to grab every free plug-in going and build up a sizeable collection. However AFAICS every DAW and many audio interfaces come with a good set of bundled plug-ins which should cover most of your needs. So start by getting to grips with those first, and only look for more once you've exhausted all their possibilities and you've discovered that you really need something that they can't provide.

It was, but the problem seems to have sorted itself out now, which is good, thanks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
