Getting Started With Reaper Audio Setup


Hello Noobster, welcome to the second tutorial on audio editing basics with Reaper, on the last tutorial we have learn how to install Reaper, the software that I recommend you to use for all your audio editing and recording.

The first thing to do next is to perform a sound check to make sure everything is working properly. To do so we will just put an audio file in repair and hit play, you will also learn how to import a device in Reaper, there are many different ways to insert device into the program today I will show you just two of them.

The most basic is drag and drop, just grab any audio file in your desktop and drag it into the Reaper environment. As you see Reaper automatically create a new track, I will explain later. You can use also your mouse wheel to zoom in and out to see in more detail. The second method to import audio let's first delete this, now the second method to import audio files is to go to the menu bar, insert > media file and now use your Windows or Mac and navigator to find the folder where your audio tracks are in this case my desktop and click Open, now hit the play button and listen.

If you can listen to your audio file that means everything is working ok and you can go to the next tutorial. If you do not hear your audio file there is a little problem somewhere and you will need to figure it out. I have been teaching audio production for many years now so I can help you with the most usual causes for this. 

Please check all of them in order as simple I’m done I’ve seen to you. Are your headphone speakers connected? Is your computer volume control down? close Reaper and play your song with any other software does it sound? Close chrome, firefox or any other software already open and load your Reaper again, go to the upper right corner, click the audio information to enter device settings and change your audio device or input nd output selection until you can listen to your audio file.  if you still have problem put your case on comment section, we will discuss audio setup again later. later because it is an important aspect understand before recording, now I hope you like this tutorial. Next we will learn to navigate the Reaper user interface.
