MIDI control and automation example
To demonstrate native plug-in automation in a host, the following example will automate a parameter of a
ReValver
™
stompbox module in Reaper. Since many dierent hosts will have a dierent method of achieving
plug-in automation, please refer to your DAWs manual for more information on its use of automation.
It is important to note that there are a xed number of automatable parameters in ReValver that are exposed
to the host, regardless of whether the current preset has modules that make use of the parameters. For
example, a stomp box ‘gain’ parameter is visible in the host even though there is no such module in your
preset. Also, each automatable parameter can be mapped to a maximum of one (1) knob, and this is the rst
applicable knob found in the preset. This means that if you have two similar stompboxes, only the rst will
become automated. Furthermore, if automation is enabled and you move the knob of the SECOND of such a
pair of modules, the FIRST module will recieve the automation. Don’t worry, your computer does not have a
“ghost in the shell.”
To begin, we have added ReValver to a guitar track in Reaper and added a “Wow-Wah!” module to our ReValver
patch. The sweep of the “Wow-Wah!” is the parameter that we will automate in this exercise.
On your guitar track in Reaper, click on the “env” button. This will bring up a window showing all of the
available parameters that can be automated on this track.
