Question: How many LOC is reaper?
Asked by jsfxll (82.49.232.x) on February 6 2017, 9:48pm
Reply on February 6 2017, 11:09pm:
    REAPER.exe is about 400k lines, not including WDL or third party libraries. And then there are tons of plug-ins (both REAPER-native plug-ins and VST-like plug-ins), and JSFX, and such.

Question: Have you ever had sciatica or other lower back pain? Any tips?

    Thankfully no, I've had pain at times but nothing chronic. A good chiropractor can do amazing things, I think, but what defines "good" is hard to say... :/

    Errr I would lean towards the word ginger, as it is a food and a type of person.

Question: ''v2.25 -JSFX: update many stock plug-ins to define their I/O''. Just wondering, as I use many JSFX from the Stash that dont have this update. Just a bit confused, whether it affects these older FX's performance. Thanks.

    Ah, it's fine, just if you have a plug-in which only accesses 2 channels on a 64 channel track, REAPER will do a bit more work than necessary, but it isn't that much work. To be clear: there is no decrease in performance in that update, just a (potential) increase in performance for plug-ins that define their pin counts.

Question: Why did Winamp have both a directsound and waveout output system even in the last year or two? That seems silly.

Reply on January 14 2017, 1:42pm:
    Why did it have both in the beginning? Some systems did better with one vs the other... Why did it have both in the end? Feature latch.

Question: Are you amazed that such things like these (link below)would be possible with JSFX or was it "expected" from you?

    That's pretty fancy, a level of flare I wouldn't expect.. I dig it! but doing that in JSFX is actually a lot easier than doing it elsewhere... e.g. my bigger graphical JSFX projects like super8 and General Dynamics, to write in C++ would be a huge pain, whereas in JSFX they are nice 1100 and 500 line (respectively) scripts... without flare. I guess super8 has a slight bit...

    Looking at the code now, heh those plug-ins are huge, 8000+ lines each... Pretty pretty though :)
