Updating

As these tools improve, there will be updates to plugins and scripts. While you can update by downloading everything again, you can also just update the plugins and scripts.

For any big update, downloading the entire pack is suggested. You update the same way you installed the REAPER charting files for the first time.

Folders being dragged into shortcuts to other folders.

Updating only plugins and scripts

Section titled “Updating only plugins and scripts”

If you don’t want your template, your keybinds, or your menus, this option’s for you! This will only update plugins and scripts.
The process is just like the initial download except the .zip file has a slightly different name.

Changelog

Section titled “Changelog”

2026-08-28T09:50:05+00:00 1787910605 Although it’s still in beta, added in the latest Chartchotic to hopefully entice some people to take the REAPER pill!

Template

Section titled “Template”
  • Bypassed the MGA JS Limiter on the Song track because it could cause issues with single track customs
  • Adjust the Master limiter threshold to -0.1 to hopefully just make it trigger less
  • Added missing shortcuts from RBN2, like U for Unions, ALT+C to copy down one octave (diff), and others
  • Added CTRL+SHIFT+A for Space Notes Equally thanks to Addy
  • Fixed drum note names. It was using some unholy combo of RBN1 and RBN2
  • Added direct access to the plugins in the menu under Extensions
  • Modified the MIDI Editor menu bar. Some things should be more convenient now

Plugins

Section titled “Plugins”
  • Chartchotic Beta is now replacing Chartchotic
  • Added Dark Mode for Windows
  • Added legacy CAT. You can now pick between HOPCAT or the Python3 port of CAT!
  • Changed FCP Venue Preview structure to match the latest version

Other things were updated to their latest versions.

2026-04-19T08:30:09+00:00 1776587409 This is yet another huge update. Finally, Linux users have an option to set up charting!

Template

Section titled “Template”
  • Replaced RBN Preview with ChartChotic
  • Set the limiters’ threshold to -1 dB to avoid compressing things too much
  • Added ProKeysPreview to the Pro Keys track
  • Add practice drum samples for EVENTS track
  • Added “Split notes to grid” shortcuts thanks to Rulas

Plugins

Section titled “Plugins”
  • Added ChartChotic by noahbaxter
  • Add FCP Venue Preview by smcconne
  • Add ProKeysPreview by Deevun155

Many things were updated to their latest versions.

2026-03-01T12:41:36+00:00 1772368691 This is the first significant update to the template. The goal is to create more options to download. The full download and a download that strictly will update scripts and plugins without touching the template files. There will be a Linux version of these two in the future.

Template

Section titled “Template”
  • Removed random [play] event from Keys track. (Caught by Linos)
  • Enabled grid. (Caught by Linos)
  • Muted “pilot” notes. These notes are made so that the “Unused note rows” option focuses on Expert only when beginning a chart. They kept causing MAGMA errors when forgetting to remove them.
  • Expanded every track to measure 163, similar to RBN2 Template.
  • Assigned ALT+SHIFT+S to “Split Notes on Grid”. (Suggested by AddyMills).
  • Made sure that ReaSynth instances were the ones from the RBN2 Template.
  • Removed RBN1 note labels from VENUE. (Caught by Linos)
  • Muted and locked the Venuegen tracks.
  • Hid EVENTS, VENUE, CAMERA, LIGHTING, and BEAT from Mixer. They will only show up in the regular Track panel.
  • Expert EADGBe have had “EXPERT” prefix removed so that “Show velocity numbers on notes” is more readable.
  • Add hidden 22 fret guitar tracks that are muted and locked. This is for sickos that need this. It is recommended to unhide and unlock them via the “Track Manager” then overwrite the template if you use this regularly.
  • Tried to redo per-track zoom that so that they’re at a good starting point by default.
  • Replaced W1 Limiter on stem tracks with ReaXcomp and MGA JS Limiter (taken from RBN Mix Template). (In part due to opinions by vreyisgrey and Linos)
  • Replaced W1 Limiter on the master with Master Limiter.
  • Relabled effects on the master.
  • Bypassed the -6 dB plugin on the master.
  • Removed ReaGate from the DRYVOX tracks. This was copied from the C3 template and I don’t think it was doing anything as it was set to -inf.
  • Maximized every track then vertically zoomed out by default.
  • DRYVOX track ReaTune instances have the plugin UI enabled when the plugin is brought back online (with CTRL+SHIFT+CLICK).

Plugins

Section titled “Plugins”
  • Added Chart Preview by noahbaxter.
  • Updated Loflyinjett’s RB-Pro-Keys-Visualizer to 2.6 and renamed it to LoflyinJetts_Pro_Keys_Visualizer.lua so that future updates don’t break the keybind.
  • Updated EncoreVocalPreview to 8abc91.
  • Updated SpanishLA to Feb 11 version.
  • Updated Pt-Brasil language pack to 759.
  • RBN Preview’s theme was changed to one sent to me by Rulas25. It was made by Drihscol.
