Reaper is the only DAW I've ever used. Was pretty challenging to learn but got REALLY deep in the customization, particularly with shortcuts and workflow efficiency. I carved out my own workflow based on how I work/how Reaper works.
Now moving to Bitwig, I'm trying to stop myself from just remapping all of the shortcuts to how I had them in Reaper... Firstly because there are many I cant (like remapping modifiers+mousewheel to grid size, or making my own cycle actions etc.), but also I want to really understand this program and its workflow, rather than just trying to force it to work the way I'm used to.
Anyone else come from Reaper?
How have you found the transition?
I'm also curious how others have streamlined their workflow, regardless of what DAW you came from...
Have read a lot of other forum posts on other peoples strategies when it comes to shortcut mapping and window/panel management, but many of them are coming from Ableton and are just remapping a lot of Ableton shortcuts, which seem a bit convoluted.
I have tendonitis (basically carpal tunnel) so keyboard shortcuts and efficiency is SUPER import, particularly so I can minimize using the mouse as much as possible, which is the biggest agitator of my symptoms.
Would love to hear your thoughts!
