I didn't know this, Dan. I must have missed it the first time around. It's a fantastic plug in.

Here's a link to the Reaper forum thread for the plugin. The first post has been updated with the full version history (last update in Dec. 2021) and has links at the end for the plugin and its manual.

It may have taken till 2017 for Reaper to get a Dynamic EQ plugin but it has been around longer.

Reaper has never impressed me.

Re REAPER.

weeelll...i still use reaps version 2 cos its all i need.
i run it with rb and bb.
check out in version 2...

..reaeq
...and reafir also does eq and comp and a bunch of stuff.
draw in your own eq curves etc etc.
...js plugins are a huge collection including eq's/comps..
and the kitchen sink from such brilliant folks as stillwell.

in summary even in very early versions of reaps there was a ton of included
plugins. for any lurkers just go to reaper.fm and dload early
reaps versions...

eg...version 2...

https://www.reaper.fm/download-old.php?ver=2x

and for fun...here is where it all began.
i started on version 0.98 if i remember...

https://www.reaper.fm/download-old.php?ver=0x
check out many earlier versions.

i'd like a buck or quid or mark etc from people in the early days who said to me...
'its shareware junk' 'cant be good for 60 bucks' etc etc....lol
now loads of pro's use it all over the world..
just go to gearspace.com and start a thread..
'wish to hear from pro studios that use reaper'.
youll get a flood of replies.
just trying to be fair....i used early versions of reaps with pg's great underestimated powertracks yonks ago and did a ton of songs with
the combo as a test bed before i took the demos into a big studio
where sometimes interestingly enough i couldnt get a better 'vibe'.

i dont use the later versions of reaps cos i love version 2
and dont need a later version.
i can even drag into it from my other fav daw pg realband
rb tracks...fast and easy....blink of an eye.
frankly i use reaps less these days due to advancements in realband.
viva la reaps/rb/bb...lol.

rock on....

om

Yeah, you've made that clear over time.
There's been a simple set up for dynamic EQ almost since the word go with reaper - just had to assembled by the user from two components...part of the Reaper ethos.
Reaper is, demonstrably from my perspective, very good, very cheap and VERY developer friendly where as Mike you've not demonstrated anything except very solid curmudgeon skills - something not to be ashamed of I might add.
I suspect something that impresses you will, by virtue of such a commendation, be something I'd not care for.
ReEQ is very well done, has a strong Fabfilter vibe even though it's quite old, and the price is right too.


Cheers

WI can always rely upon you to offer your two cents even if it's usually off topic, of kilter and of no particularly use to the discussion. I still use toilet paper but you may bidet.
