Well, now that I think about it, isn't there a free app for Android or iPad? I ain't in to all this techno mumbo jimbob. I just upgraded to a non wired mouse. ?

All you had to say is that you Were Not Buying!  ?

Did you try using a controller instead like the Presonus Faderport? 

?

I do that.

Well, I saw pictures where Repear had got loaded pretty nice skins ;)

Reaper_Notes_3-0613-m6evkmO4Rs6rQr6kgRXCuR6VVVjcacBl.jpg

That is one nice skin. I'm gonna have to find that one. But of course Paulo will hate it because the transport is at the bottom. ? Some skins have it at the bottom, some the middle and some the top.

 

@InstrEd There are hundreds of free and some paid for (usually just a few bucks) skins for Reaper.
