Does anyone know of a free mouth noise remover plugin that works with Reaper on Linux?

I know there's one out there with a free trial, not sure about Linux etc.

I know so little about it all, mostly interested because there's a brilliant meditation teacher that smacks his lips and I have misophonia.

The other day at work we had a show in who brought along their own very capable sound technician. As I was getting him all set up to run their show in our venue, I showed him how to do some esoteric routing in our #digico console that solved a problem for him.

A little later, I noticed he was running #ReaperDAW for recording the show. He started about tediously adding a track, then clicking through a series of menus to assign the routing, rinse & repeat 40some times.

I said "oh, you're a Reaper fella too, eh?"

"Yeah, it's great and all... but I don't suppose you have any tricks to make this go faster?"

Boy did I.

I showed him how to add all his tracks at once.
How to arm them all at once.
How to use the Routing Matrix to VERY quickly assign channel routing.
How to quickly name all the tracks.

At the end of 2 minutes, he had his reaper file ready to rock and told me "they should double your salary".

While he's not wrong, it got me thinking about other industry pros who protect all their knowledge like gold charms hanging from their belt. I've encountered them, too.

I DID NOT spend decades suffering, bleeding, failing, learning, succeeding, writing my own rules, etc just to have ALL THAT CRAZY COOL SHIT die with me.

Information is for *everyone* and I personally will trip over myself with excitement for any opportunity to pass it along.

Trying to wrap my head around #pipewire audio in linux!

I'm hoping to successfully replicate some stuff I'm able to do on my windows install, namely controlling 2 different outputs from my audio interface with MIDI faders I have on my desk.

There's plenty of thorough documentation about all of pipewire stuff, but it's hard to parse for a newcomer to the linux ecosystem. I'm determined to make it work though! I already got a nice Reaper setup on Linux with working VSTs and better themeing even than on windows (yay proper dark mode)
I'll update this thread with my findings!

Time for a re - #introduction !

Hey I'm Thomas, a french sound designer and musician for video games (and other forms of linear and interactive media)! I like learning new technical stuff, and have been into scripting for Reaper to make life of sound engineers easier.
I've been a pianist for most of my life, mostly practicing jazz and classical.
I love cooking for people, don't enjoy doing the dishes, I'll do the chores as long as I got a podcast in my ears!
You'll find me posting and boosting about architecture, scuba diving, (french) politics, tabletop role playing game design, accessibility, privacy and audio in general.

I avoid boosting pictures without Alt text, despise so-called artificial intelligence and other capitalistic grifts, and wished more people would wear masks.

I mostly boost stuff in English, sometimes in French.

Still happy to be on the fediverse since 2017

Took a day off after a lot of #stress and played around with #reaperdaw.

I've been trying to get a decent multi intrumentalist setup going at home. Different headphone mixes, PA routing (to an unused amp for now), preconfigured #midi #drums with mixers etc.

My band has zero interest in playing at my house but when the day comes they change the mind, maybe I'll be ready!

The thing that got me excited today was track templates in #reaper.
