Hi just started usinf Reaper and using it to create a 2 minute peice of music for this film..

I go the video on a channel so I can write this music to the scene.

How do I mute the original audio in the mov file?

If I press mute it mutes the visuals and the audio..

Cheers,
Dis.
 
Such a tard.. i just turned down the volume and it worked. But there should be a way to just mute the audio and not the picture no?
 
I haven't tried any video editing with Reaper yet, but I'm interested. Keep us posted so I know if I should upgrade from Windows Movie Maker. :D
 
Sorry for the slight hijack (and from a mod, no less) But to steve, yes upgrade from Windows MM. Sony Vegas is cheap!! and it can do so much. The user interface feels like a pro level editor, but it is still simple enough to allow you to quickly put together a video. And it comes with a lot of audio functions and you can use all your VST plugs.

Okay sorry, back to our regularly scheduled thread....

Thats cool I eventually need a good video editor so thanks for the heads up!

So far Reaper handles video much better than Cubase but it does not have little preview windows on the Event, it just looks like audio.
 
Corel's Video Studio is pretty good and not to expensive.
Video Editing Software

I think I would use the video feature in Reaper to layout the sound track and then import that audio into Video Studio for the final video production.

We need to distinguish between two main types of video making (though the boundary is often blurry). The first is when you assemble bits of video to match an existing soundtrack (e.g. a song), in which case Movie Maker or Vegas (which I use) is the way to go. On the other hand, if you are composing music to fit an existing video, then Reaper is the way to go.
