"REAPER Power" published on 21 July

I'm pleased to announce that after some nine months in preparation, "REAPER Power" will be available from July 21st :) - see this link: I've enjoyed getting it together - the task has been good but exhausting! I do hope that it will be of benefit to the REAPER community. REAPER Power is designed to help almost anyone who uses REAPER. It aims to take you beyond the User Guide (which focuses mostly on how to do things) and places more of an emphasis on the when and the why. It's also designed to help you understand how REAPER's various components, tools, bits and pieces work together. The 450 page book is comprehensive (including the new features of REAPER 3) and includes a CD with more than 100 project files which demonstrate the various features of REAPER in action. It also contains sample custom actions, FX chains, track templates, and much more. This PDF gives you an overview of the book's contents and how it has been organized. It's not the best place to start if you are a complete novice to digital recording or completely new to REAPER because it does assume a degree of familiarity with at least the most basic of tasks and concepts. If you've taken your first steps in REAPER and feel reasonably confident handling most of the basic tasks (like creating a project file, inserting a couple of tracks and recording an instrument or two) but find that from time to time you're asking questions like "Am I doing this right?", "What should I be doing next?" or "What am I missing?" then this could be the book for you. If you're an experienced user of another product (perhaps Cubase, Sonar or Pro Tools) and are making the jump to REAPER then this book should help to fast-track you into REAPER's design philosophy and ways of working, which often are very different from what you're used to. If you already know just about everything you need to know about working with REAPER then obviously you'd be wasting your money. You can't learn any more than there is to know. ;) Finally, the list of people who deserve thanks for their help with this is a long one, but I'd like to make a special mention of Moodswinger, SWS, Tedwood and Xenakios.

congrats man. should be a great resource, and i hope you make enough cash from it to buy some fancy new kit to play with :)

wow!!!!! 

Amazing!!!!... Thank you so much for doing this Nicholas, it will definitely shine a light on so many of us trying to find our way in to Reaper. You just made my day... Pre-ordering now... :-)

Congratulations Nicholas. I'm sure it was a Herculan task, but it must be awesome to see it up on Amazon and ready to go. Rock on!

nicholas, Thanks for the wonderful effort this represents. Can you say a few words about how this resource relates to REAMIX? Is there overlap, do they dovetail, improved format, etc.?

Awesome. Just wondering, how does the focus in this compare to ReaMix. It seems to be along the same lines but I'm sure there are some goodies in there that will be well worth it.

Right on nicholas!! I'm sure this will be another great addition to my arsenal of audio engineering. Looking forward to it...

Hmmm... where did I hide that debit card? Congrats Geoffery! I'm looking forward to delivery! D

This has been a long time coming for you, congrats Nicholas. I'm happy for you bro. Cheers, MoodSwinger
