100 Reaper Tips and Shortcuts (for Beginners)

Great job!!!

thanks awesome !!!

Thank you so much for this video. You really master the art of explaining things clearly. You also found the relevant aspects for a person who is migrating from another daw to reaper. Thanks for making my life a bit easier. Wish you the best.

There are 100 tips for beginners? And 100000 tips for pros? To use a DAW? Guys, have you ever heard of intuitive and user friendly software? This is like a bad joke. I will erase Reaper NOW!

👍👍🏻👍🏼👍🏽👍🏾👍🏿

Great video thank you. How can I get the transport controls at the top like in ableton?

In theory, I like the "save project every __ minutes," but sometimes I'll be experimenting, and I don't want to save the changes. I know that I can just x out of the project without saving. What I did was kept the "save project" button, and put it in the upper left. Whenever I want to save my work up to that point, I just click that button. Every time I add something, I click that button. It's quick.

I love this content, though! Great stuff!!!

Super useful. Thank you! Between you, Kenny, and the Tidy dude . . . I'm getting going, and no stopping me.

Great job man!

I watch this video a few times along with reaper blog and reaper mania you guys are awesome I'm just a slow learner so I have to watch stuff a few times over to get it stuck in my head thanks again

following this step by step really messed up my reaper some of the shortcut keys screwed things up like tool bars don't work and such the snapping tool
bar went crazy trying to copy and paste and move stuff in a track is way out of whack. I thought about resetting back to factory settings but I know that can be a very bad idea. When I click on any of the tool bars nothing happens. This is nobody's fault but my own. So I am not blaming you for it. This is why I get a bit nervous on changing shortcut keys.

I don't know if this makes any sense after going through it wen by smoothly except none of my tool bars are not working. I was trying to use the snap tool. I have png. files on one track. When I was trying to snap one png the rest of the png went with it. And now when I click once nothing happened. I can't find the piano roll midi editor which I use a lot. Before I click a midi track twice the midi editor would pop up in place so i can see the music notation. Now thats gone can you help me. I'm not good with words so I hope this makes sense

I finally went through the whole video wrote everything down in a notebook there was a few of them in there that was trying to figure out oh thats how you do it. And I do watch reapermania and reaperblog a lot those 2 guys are awesome. thanks man great job

I watched it through, and used every function. I will also watch the videos you referenced. Thank you so much for making this!

Very true

What an absolute goldmine of a video.

I use Pro Tools everyday at work but nothing beats Reaper’s customization. Incredible!!! Thanks for the video.

Newbie here

Definitely studying study mode

Thanx...excellent video👍

too many ads

Excellent !!!
thank you very much !

hi ive been trying for several weeks to get this question answered by various Reaper tutors hopefully you can end my quest altho it is a bit off from the subject of this vid
i have completely lost my grid in all instances and cant seem to get it back no matter what i try to do and being relatively new to Reaper im scared to do more harm than i already have thank you very much for your attention and hopefully your assistance

how do you change the actual short cuts? not the action list

That was all really helpful. A great find, thanks for that.

This is absolute gold. Thank you very much!

That shit has to be poisoning you.

Great video

This channel rocks!

How I get it : this is the real MATRIX

Wow I am scared already so many to do and the funny thing is : without all this tips I could not even start any thing at all : Thanks

Really cool video! I've been working with Reaper for awhile, but really been digging in as of late, to really make it my own. This was really comprehensive and helpful. Thanks, Evan!! (I heard your name in your "Customize Reaper Toolbar Buttons", video).

>M<

wooowww, amazing work mate, Thanks for a great video.

Great video. Thanks.

The first tip was gold. Hated all the audio files in the root project

WHy I can not hit space bar when I am using a mouse at the same time to adjust a plugin or track volume

Top notch info man ! Thank you!

My DAW lifecycle ... Started with Cakewalk, then Garageband, then Pro Tools, then Ableton and now I'm on Reaper 6 licensed version. LOVE Reaper!
Thanks to all of you out there sharing tips, tricks and tutorials, building a community. Very much appreciated!

Thank you for this. When you talk about moving the files to the favorites, is there an equivalent action that you could perform on Windows 11? What steps should I take?

Why does opening the media properties with double click get annoying?

Thank you! Just finished my first real project in Reaper. These tips are gonna save me a lot of time.

I taught myself reaper Over 2 years I wish this video was around when I started lol. This is a great video though as someone who has learnt the hard way good work

I just starting Reaper coming from Logic Pro X this was so help God Bless Sir

Mr Pod Peak YOUR VIDEOS ARE VERY INFORMATIVE BUT I am not able to ENABLE THE MIDI INPUT or MIDI OUTPUT IN REAPER. I am using reaper & enabled the Nektar impact lx min II in my reaper. Reaper recognises the control unit. PLEASE HELP by writing a few essential lines

Thank you soooo much for this super detailed video on Reaper! Very good job!

Wow. What a huge Pack of Information. Thank you so much for your great work.
