On their website,
http://vmeter.net/pages/Instructions-Download , they state Cockos Reaper is ENTIRELY supported.....
It looks like if you are just working with software instruments, it's a pretty easy integration whereas with say our Virus or most hardware synths, would need the suggested Kenton Midi Bridge to interface with actual synth then of course since audio output will reflect how you have set it up on their set-up utility, would then be recording whatever you do with the VMeter.
Conversely, since Reaper is entirely supported and Reaper allows audio and midi to be all in same track with both fully editable, this controller should be able to used while recording any hardware synth in Reaper...theoretically.
I am not understanding the need to download something called "Max" and will freely admit still learning and will be forever, but always kind of thought that was just an Ableton Live thing....eduMaCate me...anyone?!!
Very Cool! (BTW, have new 9'x13'x1"thick RED wool area rug down in newly configured work area. Spent yesterday doing a lot and today resting sore back/body, now finally wiring everything up so studio finally finished by mid-next week...health crap can often get in way)
On Topic: I will be picking your brains on some things with Novation Remote SL61MKii Controller, since I think at least Tweakhead has a version of it too, on things maybe not clear or not easily found on Novation Forum firstly. I know there's some support for Reaper and not using vsti's, hardware synths rather, and like Tweakhead, I find this touchpad unfortunately dreadfully unresponsive for my taste and wonder if this VMeter could be configured to work in its stead somehow? Even if it meant not using AutoMap as not really sure I like it for my needs and of course my hardware synths have tons of knobs so will not be assigning those to the Remote, just using it as a pretty good feeling midi controller.
