The Version 4.26 update was released August 17 2012 including a long list of small changes and fixes.

Some of the changes that caught my attention were:

Batch converter: automatically create output directories
Video: Added button in render dialog to grab the current video file’s width/height/framerate
ReaEQ: actions to insert these FX will open/close the FX if it is already inserted

Little things that will speed up workflow are always appreciated.

    Quick question for you:

    Has anyone upgraded to Mountain Lion yet and does Reaper work (well) with it?

      Someone reported a warning from when launching REAPER because it didn’t come from the App Store but I haven’t heard of any incompatibilities. Mountain Lion is still really new so you might want to wait another month or two to be safe.

        Unfortunately, Apple has fucked me a bit and sent me a Macbook Pro with Mountain Lion instead of a Macbook Pro with Lion (even though I asked for Lion).

        I tried to exchange it but Apple doesn’t have anything “new” with Lion anymore and the only place I can find a “new” Lion-equipped Macbook Pro is Worst Buy and they’ll screw you worse than Apple will.

        I suppose I’ll get to be an unpaid beta tester…

        …fun.

        I’ll let you cats know if I run into anything terribly annoying.

          One more reply to this and I’ll stop bothering you guys.

          I haven’t had any problems with Reaper and Mountain Lion (that I haven’t had with Reaper and anything else…buggy plugins mostly). Similarly, I’ve been running the Focusrite Scarlett 18i6 with no problems since I got it (a few days after the last post). Focusrite’s website says “Officially supported. Please download the latest software.”

          I figured I’d give you cats an update. That’s all from me.

          Over.
