Overview
What Live Keys for REAPER does
To see REAPER's state on a Stream Deck, add Live Keys for REAPER and drag its keys onto your Stream Deck: play and record keys light up with the time, track keys show mute, solo, record arm and FX with the track name, color and meter, and the metronome, snap and ripple keys show if they are on.
The keys find REAPER's web remote and connect by themselves, so a glance at your Stream Deck tells you what is armed, muted or soloed, also when you change it in REAPER.
