NOTION Music Forum

To the folks at Notion, thank you for addressing rewire with Notion 4! I have successfully linked Notion to Reaper via rewire with Reaper as host (I've also been able to use Notion as host).

For the folks on the forum, I recommend ASIO4ALL if you have an older soundcard/interface. I wasn't able to properly set the buffer size on my Presonus FP10 for the first few days using Notion 4, but I installed ASIO4ALL, tweaked a few parameters, and Notion 4 now works beautifully.

Are you also talking about Notion as slave with Reaper and Notion controlling the tempo

I am using Reaper as host with tempo control and Notion as slave. I'll try controlling the tempo from Notion later, but my workflow doesn't really require it.

I've attached my Notion 4 rewire track preset for Reaper. Try arming the track to record (with the option of monitoring only) if you get little hiccups or glitches.

Thank you, I will try it right away. What I would need is Reaper to follow Notion tempo settings but still have Reaper as host.

The rewire function seems to work as it should, I'm happy for that However I am unable to make reaper be controlled with Notions tempo, I am using Notion as slave and Reaper as host with the "allow slave to set tempo" checked.....to bad

Ulrik You will need to reverse the host slave relationship if you want Notion to control the tempo etc.

Reaper has an option to make the slave control the tempo, and I need to have Reaper as host because I want to record audio at the same time in to reaper, and that doesn't seem to be possible if it's in slave mode.

Hey, guys, are you using notion4 64 bits and reaper? Or the 32-bit version?

Are you using Mac or Windows?

I am using Windows. Haven't tried reaper yet, but I didn't manage to get Ableton Live 8 working along properly with Notion4.


Thank you for sharing your experience!

I am using Notion 4 and Reaper, both 64 bit, running on osx 10.8.2

I know Reaper shows a "allow slave to set tempo" option, but I've never been able to make this work (even with Reaper as host and as slave). As tomr put it, you will need to use Notion as host to control the tempo from Notion.

This is something the folks over at Reaper will need to deal with.
