This guide shows practical examples of what you can accomplish with Reagent. Use these as starting points and adapt them to your needs.
Project Organization
Renaming Tracks by Content
Rename tracks based on their items:
Rename each track to match the filename of its first item, without the extension
Color-Coding
Organize visually:
Color all tracks with "impact" in the name red
Color items by their parent track's color
Working with Items
Batch Renaming
Rename multiple items at once:
Rename selected items to "SFX_Impact_001", "SFX_Impact_002", etc.
Rename items based on their track name, increment suffix.
Fades
Add or modify fades:
Add 10ms fade-ins and fade-outs to all items
Remove all fades from items on the SFX tracks
Audio Processing
Silence Removal
Clean up recordings:
Remove silence from these items.
Only remove silence from items longer than 10s
Remove silence from all item in the time selection and only keep the first take.
Peak Detection
Work with transients:
Split each of these items 5ms before the transient
Align all selected item peaks
Sound Classification
Identify and categorize sounds:
Rename selected items based on their ucs category.
Add ucs metadata to each of these audio files.
Creating Variations
Basic Variations
Create alternative versions of sounds:
Create 3 variations of the selected sound
Make 5 variations of the selected item with heavy randomization
Controlled Variations
Specify what should vary:
Create 4 variations of the selected item, only varying the pitch
Make variations with subtle timing differences but no pitch change
Dialogue & Vocal Processing
Reagent has dedicated tools for dialogue volume leveling and automatic dialogue editing. See the full documentation on the Dialogue Processing page.
Library Organization
UCS Categorization
Apply Universal Category System standards:
What UCS category would this car engine sound fit?
Rename the selected items using UCS naming conventions based on their content
What metadata is in this file?
Add UCS metadata to the selected items.
Batch Export
Export organized files:
Export selected items using last settings
Strip silence, rename based on ucs and export each selected item to desktop
Session Management
Project Overview
Get information about your session:
Create a csv file based on the tracks and media items
How many tracks and items are in this project?
List all markers and regions
Finding Items
Locate specific content:
Which track has the most items?
Remove all items with "explosion" in the name
Select all tracks that has EQ plugin with high pass on it
Complex Workflows
Sound Design Pipeline
Chain multiple operations:
For each selected sound effect:
1. Detect the main transient
2. Align the item so the transient is at the cursor position
3. Add a 5ms fade-in
Batch Processing
Process many items efficiently:
For all items on the "Raw Recordings" track:
1. Trim silence from start and end
2. Normalize to -3dB
3. Move to the "Processed" track
4. Color them green
Tips
Ask for Confirmation on Destructive Operations
For irreversible changes:
Show me which items would be affected if I deleted all items shorter than 100ms, but don't delete them yet
