I successfully submitted the song to the sequel compilation of the last compilation I participated in (sponsored by Yudachi P), and for a while I was making a song for another compilation, but today when I tried to open the Reaper project file of the compilation song, the DAW A problem occurred where the page fell down midway through.
Is the file corrupted? Even if I open an old file that was backed up, the result is the same.
I've often had trouble overwriting and automatically generating a temp file, but this is the first time I can't open it completely.
Reaper crashes when opening particular project file
I found a post on the official forum that seems to be about the same thing.
Since DAWs often crash due to plug-ins, Reaper seems to have a function similar to a safe mode that disables all plug-ins and opens files.
File > Open project as usual...
Just check the item Open with FX offline (recovery mode).
I opened it without any problems.
I tried deleting one plugin at a time to see which plugin was causing the problem, but when I deleted UVI Workstation, it started up fine.
However, when I added the UVI plug-in again and tried saving it, it started up without any problems, so it's a mystery.
Honestly, I don't know if it's because of the plugin.
Well, it was a relief that the project file itself was not dead.
However, Reaper, in situations like this, the lack of information in Japanese becomes the enemy, so if you don't have the skills to search in English, you'll be stuck.
There are Japanese patches prepared by volunteers, but like FL Studio, I can't really recommend them to people who aren't good at English.
I was thinking about writing an article like ``Starting DTM with a budget of 10,000 yen'' by collecting excellent free plug-ins for Reaper, but honestly I felt like it was pointless.
