What is Playtime?

Playtime is a powerful and versatile session view or clip launcher made specifically for the DAW REAPER. It is designed as a creative instrument for recording and triggering both audio and MIDI clips, making it ideal for live performances, improvisation, jamming, looping and sketching arrangements.

As part of the Helgobox plug-in, Playtime integrates seamlessly with REAPER by leveraging its unique native-speed extension API. This deep integration provides a smoother and more efficient user experience compared to using REAPER alongside other DAWs.
