Reaper Solo Bus

In this video I’ll show you how to setup a proper solo bus for live mixing in Reaper.  The default operation of the solo bus is to solo-in-place which defeats the main LR output and replaces it with the solo’d channel.  This is not the desired operation for live mixing!  We want to route the solo’d channel to a different output.  In this video I’ll show you how to do that.
