Yet again....the Oracle delivers. Every video = useful new knowledge. Cheers Kenny...awesome!!

Great video. Learned a few new things! A note on latency. If you use any sort if plugin that has a "Lookahead" function or similar -- usually compressors, limiters and gates have this -- this will also add latency to your performance regardless of your buffer size. So make sure to turn these OFF if you're doing monitoring through Reaper. FabFilter Pro-Q for instance also has a Zero Latency setting (which is used by default). Always test your plugins for built-in latency -- most of them have ways to mitigate at the cost of a bitnof functionality.

Good point.

I thought I knew pretty much everything about latency, but as usual there are new things to learn. Always a pleasant surprise. Thanks.

Thanks , the performance meter for fine tuning is really nice and I just discovered how to get lower latency . Rock on Kenny !

Great Video Professor Kenny!! Please make a video about de Advance Disk I/O Button 🙏🙏 The Low Latency Mode action in reaper also works great for recordings with plugins that add latency to our recordings.

this video came right in time cuz i was having trouble with the latency lmao thank you!!!

That was cool ! I just switched to a new PC and I can leave it at 64 and it's the most amazing feeling ever

you're just awesome!🙏🙏 great videos as usual and this one is short and clear. thanks

Really useful Kenny. Excellent video. Thank you

I think this is the video I have been waiting for. Thank you.

Needed this lesson for sure! ~ Thank you :)

That was LONG overdue...Thank you!

i usually run at 64 while recording drums (and everything else). Sometimes if I get up tp 50 tracks I have to bump up to 128. But it's rare.

Love this video ... Make more videos about settings options.

super tutorial, as always ...thanks a ton Kenny Sir

It's true i like Reaper because of your videos✌

Thank you, Kenny! You are awesome! 😃

awesomeness delivered with coolness - thx man :)

Great video as usual! 👍 I think what I like the most from your videos is that you use real music in your demos. There are so many plugin and DAW demos on KZread that uses crappy synth driven sample tracks that drives my nuts. 🙃

Excellent!

Thank you,. Thank you. Thank you. Apparently, I accidentally hit my Focusrite Scarlet's 2i2 direct monitor button and the random clicks and pops have been driving me nuts for the past three days.

Thank you Kenny !😊

Wow, thanks for this! I didn't know the option of the buffer for high speed discs. I tried and it's amazing 😍

Nice! Thanks for the heads up.

Thanks Kenny !

Nice stuff Kenny, but I think you should have discussed the connection Types on the interface USB, Fire wire and Thunderbolt. Also the over head on the CPU with the protocols used. Also why the higher the sample rate the lower the latency.

Such a useful video!!

Thank you so much

Wen using more than one interface, I've gotten noise on a playback track. Doesn't happen all the time but when it does, it's permanent and usually have to reset everything and start over with the recording. I'm using an SSL 2 and Zoom R8 as AIs, along with an ASIO4ALL driver and defaulting to a 512 buffer. Problem is always with a channel on the R8. I finally had to discontinue using the R8 but would still like to increase my channels back to 4 if possible.

Great video Kenny. I've had an odd problem with latency since upgrading from Windows 10 to 11. I wonder whether the collective wisdom of the Reaper Mania world can help? I use a Behringer UMC404. I have had zero problems with it in 6 years of use. I usually run it with a buffer setting of 64. This gives me an output latency of 3.5ms. The problem is when I first switch the PC on. The latency increases to 17.5ms. If I then simply select another buffer value, then immediately return it back to 64, where it started, the latency then drops back down to 3.5ms. It's not a major issue but annoying when I forget to check it. I've checked that I am using all the latest drivers. Any help very much appreciated. Thanks 😊

Hey thanks, Mr Gioia 😎 I was on Facebook asking about this not to long ago. Does the number of tracks & plugins being processed have an effect on the performance at lower buffer sizes also> If so, seems like exporting your tracks to one stereo file so that you can sing or add other instruments in a separate project might be ideal?

Hi Kenny! I'm here desperate to ask you for help with the Reaper settings regarding my midi controller. I have a Novation Launchkey 37 that I'm mapping so that each key corresponds to a specific action. In particular I'm having problems with the two movement arrows on the controller that I would like to map to go from one region to another in the Reaper session (the action is "go to start of next/previous region"): unfortunately the "soft" keys the controller gets "double" input when I press and when I release, causing me to skip 2 regions at once and it drives me crazy. Have you ever had this problem, and if so, how can I fix it? Thanks :)

Thanks Kenny. Very interesting. A question why would you prefer adjusting the latency in Reaper to having the interface do all the work?

@REAPERMania

Жыл бұрын

You mean adjust it in REAPER instead of adjusting in your interfaces's software? Mostly convenience. If you're changing it a bunch, you can stay in REAPER.

Is there a way to manually assign more RAM for use in Reaper. I have a reasonably powerful computer and I want to make sure reaper is making the most of it. Or does it normally just take as much juice as your system has to spare?

Hi Kenny. Can you record at one buffer size for low latency then change to a different buffer for mixing, say to run more plugins?

There is distortion between 5:00 and 5:30, in this video.. both your audio and the repear project. It's sort of wobbly, underwater sounding, on certain words (complex syllable changes). What is this? And how to remove it? I hear it in my recordings on certain words like 'developed'. Thanks!

I swear to god I have my Interface's driver (M-Audio M-Track 2x2m) set to 16 samples. NO PLUGINS TURNED ON, only in the session but disabled. I STILL get Latency enough to throw someone off when they are Singing/Rapping. WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO IN ORDER TO GET LOWEST DELAY POSSIBLE? My system is definitely strong enough to Run these, because it's a laptop with really good parts (Asus Tuf Gaming A15 {Ryzen 9,16gbs ram, etc.} ).

Cool video! If I may ask how do you record reaper on Mac? Greetings from Finland!
