![]() Cluster them together to create however large a system you need. This is where Apple is going with the Mac Mini. Obviously you need a newer machine with thunderbolt to do this. You patch additional computers together via thunderbolt. Re: boosting computing power with 2nd computer: I handle this by having a backup computer on hand (my MBP can run a full show if I'm careful). If you really want a redundant system, you may want to duplicate the interface as well and then split your input signals to both. None of which require a redundant computer.įWIW, I'd expect an interface to fail before a Mac computer. I'm assuming you are aware of the options to use multiple monitors, run remote desktop, etc. Going for redundancy in case of a computer crash? So, your goal is to have two systems both share the same audio interface? If someone knows a solution, feel free to share it blocked^^īut I will work on this idea when have the time again. I couldn't find a solution by now an I don't think I will have time for this over the next 10 weeks. How can I connect both Reapers, so I can use one of them to remote control the other? There are two computers, both running Reaper. Let my try and formulate it in another way: Obviously too late to try and write something in an understandable way. As I said in the original post, it was late^^ I guess the whole blab about the set up of the two computers was more confusing than helping, I'm sorry about that. So I can't just place the mixer window of Reaper, running in 'A', on the screen of 'B'. It also shares the clipboard and gives you drag' n drop file sharing.īut theres no actual merging of the two computers, they are still very separated. What teleport (or Synergy, too) does, is just handing the mouse and keyboard over to the other computer, when you reach the edge of the screen of computer A to computer B. The frequent window switching is sometimes kind of annoying. So i could spread the whole process over multiple Displays (3+).īesides the feeling to work on a spaceship, I can have one screen for tracks, one for the mixer and one for plugins. What I wanted to achieve, was the ability to use one Reaper instance on Computer A to control another Reaper instance on Computer B. Stardock Multiplicy is another derivate of the same family, but as you said, it's paid whereas synergy is free. This part of the deal already works flawless. I know about Synergy and I use a similar tool (called teleport) to control both Macs with the same mouse and keyboard. ![]() It is late and I hope I didn't arrange the information in some kind of confusing wayĪaah, I'm afraid that I think there is some misunderstanding hat hand. Otherwise any information about this, any thoughts that could help me would be highly appreciated. So, is there anyone who thought of the same thing and maybe got it to work? I couldn't find something similar for the desktop system. There's an iPad App "AC-7", which is a software Controlsurface, using the Mackie protocol, that works fine with the features I listed above. I wouldn't even need the whole functionality, just levels, faders, pan, solo and mute would be enough. Otherwise "ScreenRecycler" would have been my answer, but it lags too hard. VNC is no option, since I have no wired connection. There's just the matter of mapping i guess. I also tried to open the same project in the second "Mixer" Reaper, so the channels would be the same but had no idea how to actually connect them.Īs I wrote, nothing but the Mainfader was controllable - so I know it has to work. I also thought about rewire, but if I'm not mistaken I would have to connect each channel separately. I could control the Master fader, setting up each Reaper instance as Controlsurface via MIDI Network.īut that's it, nothing else showed any reaction and no level information was displayed either. This way I have one giant Workstation with up to 4 screens, behaving as one computer. Why not hook up two Displays to one Computer?Īctually there are 3 Screens in use, two smaller ones on the Hackintosh and a big one on the MacBook, which runs in clamshell mode (closed, running as "nettop") and both computers share one set of Keyboard/Mouse. Goal: Have the Mixer displayed on one Screen (Computer 1) and the Trackview on another Screen (Computer 2) and send (and receive) Mixer Signals form the "Mixer Reaper" to the "Track Reaper". I have two Macs (maybe this is important information for configuration) running 10.6.8 and 10.6.6 (Hackintosh, can't upgrade to 10.6.8 right now). I want to control Reaper via another Reaper instance via LAN. I've been using reaper for a while now and now I have a quite fancy idea.
