This repository contains a collection of Lua scripts for REAPER, a digital audio workstation (DAW). These scripts provide various functionalities to enhance your workflow in REAPER.

Requirements

Some scripts may require the SWS extension or ReaPack. Please ensure you have these installed for full functionality.
