Only root can move files in there. In Linux you need to acquire root privileges to do operation is system folders. Root is the only real Admin. To acquire root privileges for your regular user you need sudo. Did you try this command? sudo mv reaper.desktop /usr/share/applications/reaper.desktop Thi...

Thanks. I tried as per your description and when I tried to move the .desktop file to the applications folder I was told I can't do that. Even though I'm the admin.

How can I make it open by double click? Can't I put reaper among the other applications? And start it as any other app? We can do all of this, but first update us with what Ubuntu flavor and version you are running, so that we can give the most efficient solution. No link to update firefox from the...

Check this . Thanks, that's great! I just tried to save this article. So I wanted to install the printfriendly addon on firefox. On the addon center I was informed my firefox is out of date. I opened firefox menu / about firefox. No link to update firefox from there. So I visited firefox.com and do...

And here whatever I choose under "audio", in the I/O 2i2 is not listed. I don't even see Jack listed anywhere in reaper. I did a small video illustrating how I do it with my Scarlett 2i4, you can find it here . Set up JACK to use your Scarlett and start it. Launch reaper, go to the option...

Ok, so I started reaper. Selected ALSA, then Scarlett. Tried recording and nothing is being recorded. It stands still. Nothing moves. Also, I tried to select the port I'm using. Mono / and then here it's line in 1 and line in 2. But instead, nothing is listed. I got some rough edges to when trying ...

I went to the folder where reaper is and right clicked on an empty space, open in terminal: xy@xy-pc:~/Downloads/reaper_linux_x86_64/REAPER$ ls -la total 9764 drwxrwxr-x 6 xy xy 4096 aug 9 22:15 . drwxrwxr-x 3 xy xy 4096 aug 9 22:15 .. drwxrwxr-x 2 xy xy 4096 aug 9 22:15 Docs drwxrwxr-x 9 xy xy 409...

Hello, Gulliver! This command makes reaper5 an executable: sudo chmod +x /home/you/.550RC6/REAPER/reaper5 Adjust it for your actual reaper location. Double-click reaper5, and in the popup, choose 'run reaper in terminal', which will start without further action. This is handy, so If something freez...

Ok, so the file is extracted, but when I double click on the reaper5 file again the "no application found for reaper5" thing comes up. I have the ubuntu installer installed, and I have already installed numerous programs with it. Is this not an ubuntu executable file? There are many ways ...

I downloaded it but don't know how to install it. The documentation that Jack Winter pointed to you says it all. We are happy to help, but we don't want all the fun :D Try to make use of the resources we link as most as you can: this will make you independent soon. The file you download is a compre...

Ok thanks. I downloaded it but don't know how to install it. I clicked on it twice as I do with other ubuntu installers and it does nothing. It says "no applications found for... reaper"

Have a look at this wiki I've been working on: https://wiki.cockos.com/wiki/index.php/REAPER_for_Linux At its easiest you hopefully only have to download, unpack it and then run the reaper5 executable. If you want to use the ALSA backend with realtime threads or the JACK backend, you'll have to giv...

IMO reaper for linux (with linvst) is better than reaper in wine.

If you can help me install it, I'm up for it

FYI there is a native version of Reaper coming up. It works really great already and you can forget about all the wine hassle.
