Ha, thanks ;) Then I should have announced it here also. I just announced it in the REAPER forum. Well ... next time. |

We really need to spread the word and promote your Liberapay profile as well. I was wondering why you're not on Patreon or similar until I saw the link in above message. You should put a link / banner for it on your helgoboss.org home page - I'm sure Reaper Users downloading Helgobox or one of the other tools would be happy to throw a few quid your way. |

Your project created some pretty astounding possibilities for my playing and performance, I'm so grateful for your work. I switched over completely from Ableton this year after over 10 years. The features you've provided are truly singular and I hope in time more and more people will recognize this. I'm going to work on that and spread the word. |

BTW, I just did a preview video about the non-REAPER app that I was talking about. Could be interesting for REAPER users as well, especially musicians: |

This looks awesome, going to keep an eye out for the release and suggest my students try this too! |

For the app itself it's mainly Dart/Flutter, but performance-critical parts, audio analysis, p2p networking and syncing are mostly written in Rust. The server (necessary for collaboration) is written exclusively in Rust. |

Thanks so much for all your work Benjamin, Realearn and Playtime are amazing projects and I so much appreciate having tools like this be open-source. I've been using Realearn for years and have recently finally wrapped my head around the auto-load function. IMO it's the best and most flexible system for controlling plugins that is available for any DAW. (and I've tried pretty much everything) I think a lot more people would use it if they just knew how it worked and how powerful it was. I've noticed a few things I don't understand that may be bugs or just my ignorance in the process of mapping ny first couple dozen plugins, and I'd like to make sure I have a good handle on best practices for organization before passing on any (mis)information to anyone, so I'll be posting some bug reports/questions here in the coming weeks. |

You've got my support. I consider ReaLearn and Playtime 2 as much a part of REAPER as REAPER itself. I have been spreading the word and continue to do so. The majority of my peers are Live users. I've made two converts so far. |

Dear Playtime & ReaLearn users,
I just wanted to let you know that I'm currently in the stage of improving my financial buffer to be able to fund the next development cycle of Helgobox. In other words, these days I mainly work on other things that are more profitable than REAPER plugins (freelancing & another non-REAPER related product). Or very recently, I presented Helgobox at the Superbooth event in Berlin (very short video here ;).
Many of you purchased Playtime 2 and I'm really grateful for that, but it's not yet enough to keep working full time on it ... especially not after having paused freelancing for one year already in order to work exclusively on Playtime. So yeah, this will take a while! Until autumn 2025, I probably won't be able to work on larger new features. Until then I will focus mainly on fixing bugs and making smaller improvements from time to time.
Thanks for your understanding and patience! 🙏
If you want to know more about how I work and which challenges come with that, my Liberapay profile explains it quite well.
If you want to support development somehow, I think the best way (in addition to donations) is to spread the word 📢. Making more people aware of Playtime leads to more people supporting it financially, which in turn leads to more time that I can spend improving it :)
Cheers and thanks
Benjamin aka helgoboss
