What is automation in Reaper?

Automation allows you to program and control any aspect of a DAW or its plugins on the timeline. It is a versatile tool that makes it easy to create dynamic effects without constant manual intervention. In Reaper, track envelopes are essential to perform these automations. But how do we access them and what creative uses can we make of them?

Where are envelopes found in Reaper?

In Reaper, envelopes can be opened from the 'Trim' menu. When clicked, we select 'Track Envelopes Automation' and activate the display and editing of desired parameters. To begin with, we activate the volume, making it visible and editable. With this, we directly influence the behavior of the sound in the timeline.

Open the Trim menu in Reaper.2. Select 'Track Envelopes Automation'.3. Activate visibility and volume editing.

How are envelope points created and manipulated?

Envelope points are generated by Shift-clicking on the timeline. They can be moved up or down to increase or decrease the volume or any other automated parameter. In addition, by holding down the Alt key, you can modify the curvature of the envelope segment, allowing for smoother or more abrupt transitions.

Create points with Shift + click.2. Move points to adjust volume.3. Adjust curvatures with Alt + click.

What other parameters can be automated in Reaper?

Not only volume can be automated. In fact, with a simple shortcut like the V key and accessing 'Trim' again, we can automate any parameter of a plugin. For example, with the ReaEQ equalizer, it is possible to manipulate the frequency of a specific band, which allows us to shape the sound in novel ways, such as imitating the sound of a wind or a storm.

Use V key to toggle visibility.2. Select plugin parameter.3. Automate with manual strokes or dots.

How to render a file in Reaper?

To finalize a project, it is crucial to render the file correctly. Here you select the audio source, the limits and the destination directory. The sample rate, preferably 48 kHz, and the file format, usually WAV for maximum quality and OGG as a high-value compressed option. In addition, it is possible to render in both formats simultaneously, thus optimizing our results.

What are the important settings when rendering?

  1. Sample Rate: Defines the quality of the audio; 48 kHz is normally used.

  2. Output Format: For professional audio work, use WAV with a bit depth of 24.

  3. Tail space: Delete for more freedom during post-production.

  4. Time selection: Make sure it matches the desired length of the final file.

  5. Post-render check: Always listen to your rendered files to avoid errors.

1.Set sample rate and format.2. Select tail and time selection properly.3. Review rendered files to correct errors.

Reaper offers incredible opportunities for creation and refinement in sound design. With practice, automating and rendering become intuitive tools that will accompany you throughout your projects. Continue exploring these features and become a sound expert!

Mi aporte

Tambien para realizar el render, en ovaciones es mejor crear un canal en el DAW el cual reciba las señales y grabar este canal. Para tener más control de todo lo que está pasando. Un saludo

Se puede tomar pantallasos en Windows 10 manteniendo pulsando: sift, la tecla windows, y pulsando la tecla S . y luego haces como un recorte a lo que le quieres tomar un pantallaso. (todo en ese orden)

Que buena clase

Cuando estaba automatizando con los envelopes en vez de sonido de viento, sentia que era más sonido del oceano! Aqui esta mi tarea, sonidito de viento. Nunca volveré a ver el noise sound de la misma manera. ![]()![]()![]()![](https://static.platzi.com/media/user_upload/image-0ddaa867-773d-4a52-a9eb-cf669fed99ab.jpg)
