nvk_AUTODOPPLER 2
Generate doppler automation for items in Reaper
Doppler passes are slow to draw by hand, and slower when you need a batch of variations. The script finds the peak of each item on a track and writes the doppler automation around it. Then you adjust it with sliders, randomize it, and render.

Try the main controls
Attack, Release, Offset, and Amount work like the sliders in the script. Press play to hear a pass that follows the curve. Below it, the same settings are applied to every item on a track.
The sound is synthesized in your browser to show the shape of the curve. Use headphones to hear the pan. In Reaper, the script writes this automation to the plug-in you pick.
How it works
-
Select a track
Select the track with your items. If it's a folder, the script includes the child tracks. Make a time selection to work on part of the track.
-
Run nvk_AUTODOPPLER
It finds each item's RMS peak, or uses its snap offset, and writes automation for every item at once. The automation updates as you move the sliders.
-
Render
Render the time selection, or the whole track. With Split takes on, each item gets its own take.
Features
Peak detection
Uses each item's RMS peak, or its snap offset if you've set one. Offset moves the peak earlier or later.
Envelope and playrate sliders
Attack, Release, Offset, and Hold shape the envelope. Amount and Multiplier set the playrate swing. Changes apply to every item on the track or folder.
Randomize
Press R to randomize all sliders. Each slider has its own randomization amount, and per-item randomizing gives every item in a batch different settings.
Quick Render
Renders the selected items with your last settings, without opening the window. With one item selected, the peak goes where you place the edit cursor.
Custom mode
nvk_AUTODOPPLER - Custom writes the same automation to any FX parameter you touch, such as a filter cutoff or a reverb mix.
Saved with the project
Settings are stored on the track, the project, and each item, so reopening the script picks up where you left off.
Supported plug-ins
Choose the plug-in from a menu in the script. The sliders change to match it.

Included
nvk_DOPPLER
A doppler effect that works by modulating Reaper's playrate, so the pitch can swing much further than a conventional plug-in allows, with no latency or buffer. It has volume, pan, and air controls, plus dry mix, tremolo, compression, and a limiter.
