   * Reaper is constant recording MIDI input in the background and you can set up a shortcut to paste what it has into a track, keyword is 'retroactive MIDI recording'.
   * MIDI sends: https://www.reaper.fm/videos.php#YTQVIHPKzc0 - Haven't found this useful yet, but it seems useful.

     * I have to use multiple instances of the VST to get them all to show :|
   * To merge two clips (//items//) you use Item → Glue items (or Glue items within time selection)
   * To match the tempo of a song to that of some prerecorded audio you've imported you can select the area that represents one bar/loop/whatever and go Insert→Measure from time selection (detect tempo). This will fuck up the tempo of your other audio clips (probably avoidable…), so do it first thing (or you'll have to reimport stuff).
+  * To limit soloing to only one track hold Ctrl+Alt when you click the 'S'. Like most things, you can right-click on the 'S' to see options. I hoped the ignore routing option would let me solo stuff that wasn't going to the master track, but nope!
+  * You can place //markers// with 'M'. These are given a number, and you can jump to each marker by pressing the corresponding number key.

   * [[https://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?t=262175|MIDIControl]] - Better interface for working with MIDI CC, most importantly (for me) way more values in the panel than ReaControlMIDI. Doesn't work on Linux yet.
-  * [[https://ctrlr.org/|Ctrlr]] [[aur>ctrlr]] - Let's you design your own custom panels, and people share ones they've made. Can't get it to be detected by Reaper.

   * [[https://www.midiplugins.com/Plugin/111|CC-Rider]] - Another better MIDI CC VST, Windows only I think.
   * [[https://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?t=227021|MIDI Monitor / Controller]] - Add as many MIDI CC knobs as you want. Haven't tried yet.
