me brain is so fride
... but I posted REAPER 0.50, which has some pretty awesome auxiliary send
functionality, as well as hardware output support, that I dig. and there's
still so much to do! sigh. the todo list grows faster than I can keep up.
It will be interesting to see Acid 6.0. Before I started writing REAPER I
wished Acid did multitrack recording well. But now it's too late, I'm committed
to this. It's been 9 weeks. I'm so tired. But happy.
I ordered a real Mackie Control Universal, so I can support it. REAPER works
great on my BFC2k in MCU mode, but apparently a real MCU doesn't like it. lame.
Everybody who has been sending in suggestions has been so helpful. It's really
a lot like the old Winamp days, except people are REALLY passionate about what
they want, which is even better. I just have to sort through it and find the
best ways of pleasing myself (that sounds naughty) and others equally.
At any rate, REAPER v1.0 seems so far away now, but the prospect of making
literally HUNDREDS of dollars, ~$20 at a time, seems so exciting. That's a lot of burritos. Why did I say I'd go to 1.0 before going shareware?
