Anyone upgraded to Reaper v5?

[TripleM]

I've been using/upgrading Reaper v4 for a while now. I think I'm up to v4.78.

I know v5 is out, and I think it even has a patch out. But I'm usually cautious on major version changes.

Has anyone installed Reaper v5.x?? Any problems?

You mean to say you have NOT seen this?;

The change to Reaper 5 is the same as any other Reaper upgrade: seamless

Thanks guys. I see no reason not to apply the upgrade.

I patched up to 5.01 a couple of weeks back and haven't noticed any differences at all. I liked the look of the new v.5 interface/theme but unfortunately the markers were less legible than the old v.4 theme, so I had to revert back. I use the markers to remind me of chord changes for overdubbing.

I did the upgrade (and finally upgraded my license; I skipped all of 4), but haven't futzed with it much yet.

I did notice that the clip indicators seem to operate really differently. I recorded an interview with my band, and it looked to be clipping all over, but the red light never went on.

Steve,
I haven't installed 5.0 yet. But, can you right click, to set the offset and threshold, like previous versions? https://homerecording.com/bbs/user-...the-reaper/reapers-meters-343621/#post3882790

A seamless update here too. I was a little dubious so updated my laptop before my main PC and all worked perfectly. So the main recording PC was updated a couple of weeks back and then patched to 5.01 when it was released and so far experienced no negative effects from the update.
