Render Alert for REAPER

  • There's a new script for REAPER to play a sound when renders complete. You can choose any sound to play, and you just need to add the script to your global startup action.
    Personally I find this extremely useful as I often start watching a video or walk to the kitchen and when I come back I totally forgot about the work I was doing and potentially hours go by without realizing I had been waiting for a file to render. I might have ADHD.

    I haven't watched the video, i just came to say 2 things:
    1) Thank you for the videos.. I might have not watched this one (yet) but you've helped me countless of times
    2) Why is the reaper logo/icon flipped in the thumbnail? hahah like I was looking at it and something was off, i started questioning my sanity for a second, like "is this how it really is?? is this how it's always been?? is anything real, or have I imagined everything up to now??"

      @@TheREAPERBlog I totally get that, almost all your videos make sense in long format, but something like this could for sure have been condensed down and would get more views and keep the audiences attention. Another benefit is a lot of folks discover people's channels by watching watching shorts. Either way keep up the amazing work you're an invaluable resource to the reaper community.

    While we're talking about renders... could devs add a checkbox to prevent Reaper from deleting the render queue list once render is finished? Creating big render queues can take a while and a lot of times you need to re-export & overwrite everything.

      @@JimBaker-ks4io What ? No, it doesn't. When you zip a file, the original file remains exactly where it started, a COPY of it is placed into a compressed ("zipped") file. REAPER can still read the queued project files because they are still there in their untouched state. You have an ADDITIONAL copy of said file(s) inside the .ZIP file. REAPER doesn't even know to look for that .ZIP file (nor could it read it even if it did), so REAPER is none-the-wiser.

I think It is just reaper's functionality that the render window stays on until it is done. I wonder if there is any scripts that auto minimize render window.

      I could auto minimize it but the user might want to keep it opened. Nevertheless I found out why the issue happens and I already opened up a "bugreport" on the forum for it, since it could be fixed by the devs.

    I'm surely missing something. Not sure why this is important. I've rendered music and video but didn't need to be told when it's finished? Maybe you're talking about something that doesn't exist in my workflow. [edit: Yep, a non-issue for me]

      Render never takes me long enough to get bored of just sitting there, taking a a breather and just self reflecting.
      If it was a video I guess it would be useful, but I'd just go do something else and come check back, I have a pretty good internal clock for that kinda stuff, always get to the wash when it's just finished up lol

      @@Windiguana Apple/macOS has a pretty heavy emphasis on notifications. I’ve always liked Final Cut Pro X’s render notifications, same with Blender. Those take some time to complete, so I’m often doing other things on my computer or stepping away, and (if finished) the notification will be there when I come back. It’s also a reassuring feeling seeing the notification, but I guess I’m just very used it. Certainly not a necessity.
      I strongly disagree with The REAPER Blog’s 2016 forum post, however, and I was surprised to hear him say the lack of a sound after a completed render makes REAPER unusable and unprofessional. Strange, I can’t tell if this is very exaggerated/sarcasm. A sound notification would be a built-in feature if it was that essential. Most people probably haven’t thought about it; nowhere close to a showstopper or cheapening the DAW at ALL. I respect The REAPER Blog, but that take makes zero sense to me.
      Personally, I won’t use this script because I like quiet notifications, and the built-in functionality is fine for that.
