Stripped upstream git history; starting point for replacing the native SWELL/Win32 mapping UI with something more suited to bulk editing. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

WARNING: Playtime captures audio or MIDI input more or less directly from the hardware.
|
|
That also means that the track's _input_ FX chain will not have any effect on the recording!
|
|
You can work around this limitation by using *Loopback* channels instead of input FX.
|
|
|
|
TIP: Selecting *Loopback* channels as audio input doesn't automatically enable them!
|
|
Make sure that the REAPER setting *Virtual loopback audio hardware channels* in menu:Options[Preferences/Settings... > Audio] is high enough!
|
|
|
|
NOTE: This directly sets the input of the corresponding REAPER track.
|
|
Although technically not necessary for recording because Playtime doesn't use REAPER's track recording facility, it is important for input monitoring.

.Playtime input monitoring explained
|
|
====
|
|
Playtime input monitoring options are slightly different from REAPER's input monitoring options.
|
|
Each input monitoring option mode translates to a certain combination of REAPER track properties:
