Ive decided that this weekend im gonna finally figure out everything about this recording software Reaper.... I know how to record me playing guitar in it thanks to deeproots tutorial, but i want to know how to mix, add effects, basically everything the program will do...

Any help would be appreciated...
Ill use this thread as my question board

First question would be can i record something that is being played through my computer speakers?
Like if i was watching youtube and wanted to record some audio clip from there, can that be done on reaper and if so how would i do it?

Save the file to your desktop (or wherever), then simply drag it into reaper and it should automatically make a new track for you. Then you can make a new track for your guitar playing and you're all set!


So you have to save it to your computer before adding it to reaper?

With audacity i can record whats being played out of my computer speakers without having to save it, is that possible with reaper?

I just started doing that. Install addictive drums and select VST options in reaper.
After that all you need is to open the FX browser, go to VSTi and drag and drop addictive drums into a track. Then you can configure the drums in addictive drums and use then in your reaper recording.
