In this video I walk you through the process of adding a VST plugin to Reaper so you can get lots of great effects in your track. Here is a nice resource fo. Want to use some of the comprehensive FX plug-ins that REAPER provides, but stuck in another host? Haven't made the switch yet? Fear not - you can download ReaPlugs, a package of FX that includes many of the plug-ins that come with REAPER, for free!

| Plugins | |
|---|---|
| Automatically resize VST/DX config windows | By default, REAPER will automatically resize the window containing FX plug-ins to match the size of the size of the largest plug-in displayed. Select the down check box if you want the window to automatically resize down when switching to a plug-in with a smaller GUI. |
| Set foreground to floating windows when selected | By default, REAPER will bring the GUI of a floated FX to the foreground when it is selected in the FX chain. Clear this check box to prevent this behavior. |
| Auto-float newly created FX windows | Select this check box to automatically float newly created FX plug-ins. |
| Auto-dock new FX chain windows | Select this check box to automatically dock new FX chain windows in the docker. |
| Auto-open FX add dialog when opening empty track FX chain | This option, enabled by default, automatically opens the Add FX window when you open the FX chain of a Track that has no FX assigned. Clear this check box to prevent this behavior. |
| Only allow one FX chain window open at a time | Selecting this check box will force REAPER to close open FX chain windows before opening another one. This is useful when you want to view the FX chains of several Tracks in a row. Instead of ending up with many FX chain windows open, you will only see the last selected FX chain. |
| Reduce denormalization from plugins (recommended) | This adds a small (VERY small) DC offset to signals in order to avoid [denormals]. It uses a little more CPU to do this, which is the main disadvantage. The signals it adds are so small you shouldn't be concerned about the quality implications. |
| Rewire mixer support (act as ReWire mixer (show ReWire devices in plugin browser) | Entry Here |
| Auto-open panels when opening ReWire devices | This will display the ReWire device immediately in full instead of having to manually initialize it. |
| Run fx on stop when ReWire devices are active | This will allow the ReWire devices to continue running in the background. Note: It will continue to use the same CPU as it did when it was active and playing! |
| Check for ReWire mixer/device on startup (and automatically enter client mode if present) | If you have a ReWire mixer open when you start REAPER, it will automatically put REAPER into client mode, and you will be able to control it from the master ReWire device. |
| ReWire client low CPU mode (introduces one frame of latency when in client mode) | Conserves CPU at the price of one frame of latency. |

Important: Impact Reaper integration is compatible with Reaper 4.59 or later. We recommend that you upgrade to the latest version if you have not already done so. These instructions assume you have a compatible Reaper program installed running on either Windows (Vista or higher) or Mac OS X 10.7 or higher.
Reaper Daw Vst
Make sure Reaper is already installed on your computer. Intel iris plus graphics 640 skyrim. If not, please install Reaper first and open it at least once, before running the installer for Nektar DAW integration software.
- Download the ‘Impact_Reaper_Integration' file from your Account page after registering your product.
- Run the ‘Impact_Reaper_Support' installer and follow the onscreen instructions.
- Plug in your Impact controller and make sure it's switched on (if you didn't do so already).
- Launch Reaper and open the ‘Options' menu
- Select ‘Preferences'.
- In the ‘Preferences' window, select ‘Control/OSC/Web'.
- Click ‘Add'.
- In the pop-up window, select your Impact model in the ‘Control surface mode' list. As long as your Impact is connected and switched on, Reaper should automatically detect the correct ports. (See Image 1 for OS X setup and Image 5 for Windows).
- Click ‘OK'.
- In the ‘Preferences' window, select ‘MIDI Devices' from the Audio category.
- Enable ‘Impact LX**' (Windows) or ‘Impact LX** MIDI1' (OS X) for your Impact. The mode should be ‘Enable+Control'. The other 2 Impact ports should remain disabled. (See Image 2 for OS X setup and Image 6 for Windows).
- Click ‘Apply'.
- Click ‘OK'.
That's it, setup is now complete and you can move on to the fun part, learning how it all works!

Patch Changes
If you find that the [< Patch] and [Patch >] buttons don't work when controlling a third-party plug-in, it's likely because the plug-in uses it's own patch browser. The Patch buttons on the Impact series control the patch navigation functions of the DAW, so you may need to save the plug-ins presets in your DAWs patch format, before you can use the Patch buttons on the Impact controller for patch navigation. You can find more information about saving patches in your DAW, in the documentation for that program.
If you have a portable installation of Reaper, you will need to manually install the control surface files. The files you need can be found on the My Account tab on our website.
Download the file named ‘Reaper_Portable_Installation_Impact'.
Unzip the file and copy/paste the .dll files to the ‘Plugins' folder within Reaper's install path (usually C:Program FilesREAPER (x64)).
If you're experiencing problems please contact one of our support engineers.
