Maybe this will be useful to some of the Reaper users here. Reaper remote control (via web browser). You can write the UI for the remote control using html/javascript/ajax.

reaper_www v0.?

put reaper_www.dll and reaper_www_root in your REAPER/Plugins dir. Run REAPER. Then open a browser to http://localhost:8808/ (or your IP instead of localhost). Done. Only tested on Firefox and iPhone so far. If you want to edit the html/javascript/etc, see reaper_www_root/index.html and main.js. main.js has info on the API for accessing the web server. If you want to change the port, add a password, change caching on items, etc, you can add a section to your reaper.ini:

[reaper_www] userpass=login:password port=8808 cacheexpire=secondsinfuture (default 3600) wwwroot=path to wwwroot to use

Happy hacking

Thanks, that looks really useful. I have had a Tranzport wireless remote for a long time, but the radio reception on it is lousy compared to my router. I wonder how easy it would be to access the level meters on the web interface - that's the one Tranzport function I would miss, it saves me having to run up and down a flight of stairs to get my mic pre-amp gain set!

I was thinking it might be good for wireless Ipad control. 😉

A few rules keep this a friendly place. You agree to them once.

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
