I love Reaper! Have been using it for the last 3 years for Everything Audio, including Podcasting projects. Excellent DAW. Glad you are endorsing it Marcel!
Thank you for watching Earl! I also love using it for my VR files. So much easier to edit and render out the files.
You are a genuine life saver. I had recorded two commercials on one go (the beltpack had to be gaffed to the back of the host so for sake of ease we just left it recording) and near the end she took off her jacket and the zoom pack fell on the ground. I was terrified I was about to have schedule a reshoot.
Hi Terry, Wow I'm so glad to hear that and I know the feeling very well. I imagine your joy putting the file into Reaper and watching the wav file appear again. :)
0:12 that was a really good reaction 😂
Hahahaha! Oh yes that's when the f1 dropped :)
You sure are a lifesaver! My recorder fell into the ocean for a split second (silly me) and no files would load after i'd been recording all day. I was able to recover the files using Reaper. Thanks again! 🙌
Oh this happened to the best of us! So glad we could help you with recovering the files.
You've just saved me alot time. Be blessed brother.
Glad it helped :) Yeah these things really suck when they happen.
@@FreeToUseSounds I Know. I was about to spend 2 hours recording some voice overs.
@@kazesimplice2410 Glad you didn't had to go trough that.
thanks man, you saved my last night's recoding.. I'd tried Audition, Logic Pro X, Tracks Live, I was already thinking how I was going to explain the client who had already paid and had a lof of expectations. Thanks for putting this video out.
So glad to hear that!! Much appreciated for sharing!!!
@@FreeToUseSounds 😀
THANK YOU !!!!!!!!!!
Thanks bro you just save my life and my audio with your recommendation of Reaper awesome software even with free trial they did not kneecap the software so am buying it.thanks
Thats so awesome to hear! The moment when you see it works must have been so heart lifting :)
for me it says could not import...
I have amr files which have some mb in that file but can't able to play the audio.. can you help me?
Oh wow, Reaper saving the day. AGAIN ! Eheh amazing DAW, my main DAW since august and it changed my life lol
I hope for the best :)
Cool, hopefully I need that one day. Reaper, I'm just learning learning. I have some gear to record. I also have Audition, but do you think Reaper would be better to learn first?
Hi Kevin, Reaper is more advanced but it's incredible powerful. You can find many tutorials about reaper on UA-cam but also about Audition. Check them out and download Reaper. That way you can find out what fits your needs the best.
honestly, reaper should be much more well known!
by the way, how do you like your new audio technica m40x compared to your mdr-7506?
Hi Kagi! I have the 30 series and I like them more to be honest. Especially the cable is so much better. I never liked the curly cable of the Sony headphones. From the sound quality its hard to say now because I can't directly compare them.
you are great luv u man ♥♥
Thank you!
you're a genious
Reaper to the rescue! People always forget they're attached to a lav microphone lol sometimes people even leave with them still on and go home lol
Oh yes, the craziest things can happen :)
Reaper rules!!!!!
It does! :)
not working for me at all
is not working for me. Help!
So sorry to hear that. What happened and did it happen on a zoom recorder?
@@FreeToUseSounds thaks for answer! Sadly i miss the deadline for that project... but i´m still confuse about it.
I did use a zoom H6 recorder for that, but when i try with build-it mic on my mac it didn´t worck either.
The situation was as follows:
I made the recording of an exhibition/conferece in a DAW called TwistedWave, I didn't use reaper because Teistedwave was less heavy...
when i was recording I could see the waveform and i could monitor the audio. But two days later when I wanted to listen to the recordings the sound was not there. However, the files were heavy and the files when I put them into: Reaper, VCL, Quicktime...even Imusic, had the length they originally were, the corresponding weight but no sound, no waveform.
do you have any idea of what happen?
I did everything....I consulted several internet forums, I even sent the recordings to some class mates and professors and they could not solve it.
if you believe you can solve the problem ...or know something ...I would like to know :)
that problem is still in my head.
I appreciate that you have answered me, I see your videos and I like them a lot..
(hope to buy one of those LOM mics, they are really exclusive and expensive, im in love with one of them lol )
Greetings from Bogotá, Colombia.
bro i can breath nowwwww
I'm having no luck with this program
Ah shoot. What happened to your file?
@@FreeToUseSounds it's not giving me the whole audio only getting 5 seconds of a song
@@alistairrodgerfairbrother2479 Hmm, yeah sorry about that.
@@FreeToUseSounds any idea of what I could do?
@@alistairrodgerfairbrother2479 I dont think so because I dont know what happened. How did you record the file?
