Preferences Plugins Reamote
From CockosWiki
ReaMote is REAPER's network FX functionality. You can add/remove your slave ReaMote machines through this dialog.
| ReaMote configuration | |
|---|---|
| Enable ReaMote processing | Check this if you want to enable remote FX processing through your ReaMote slaves on your local network. |
| ReaMote slaves | This is the list of your configured ReaMote machines. You can right-click on any list item to connect/disconnect/remove any slave. |
| Auto-search | This button will search for running ReaMote slaves on your local network and add them automatically to the ReaMote slaves list.
Note that this might have issues with certain network hub/switches. In that case, you'll have to add your slaves manually using the Add button. |
| Plugin list | Displays a list of the FX plugins installed and available on the selected ReaMote slave. |
| Add | Add a ReaMote slave to the ReaMote slave list. |
| Edit | Edit the current selected item. |
| Remove | Delete the current selected ReaMote slave(s). |
| Sample format | You can choose between 32 bits and 64 bits for the sample precision sent between the REAPER host and the ReaMote slaves.
64 bits is recommended for optimum quality but if you're having network bandwidth issues, you can use 32 bits to chop the needed bandwidth amount by half. |
| Network max. latency (playback) | This slider defines the maximum latency allowed for requesting packets back from a ReaMote slave during playback. If the REAPER host doesn't receive a processing packet after the defined period, it'll play silence. This setting is ignored during renders. |
| Render send-ahead | Defines the amount of data sent to the ReaMote slaves at once.
Warning: A value too high can consume a lot of your network bandwidth and a value too low can slow down renders. |
Once you have Enable ReaMote processing activated in the Preferences, you'll get a listbox in your FX Chain dialogs where you can select the Reamote slave you want to use:
The performance meter window also displays the CPU usage on your defined ReaMote slaves:
