SWS Snapshots: Save/recall mix states with one click! (Rapid-Fire REAPER Tutorials Ep86)
IMPORTANT NOTICE: SWS Snapshot DOES save automation!!! I'm sorry for my mistake. This wasn't in the manual, and I thought I tested that it doesn't work, but now I re-tested and it does work!
Hey folks! In this episode we will dive into SWS Snapshots, which in my opinion is THE staple feature of the SWS package, an extension already so packed with incredible features I can't imagine living without!
