README

TwelveTake REAPER MCP

A TwelveTake Studios project.

Setup guide, examples and FAQ -> twelvetake.com/tools/reaper-mcp

Listed in the MCP Registry as mcp-name: com.twelvetake/reaper-mcp.

TwelveTake REAPER MCP is a Model Context Protocol server that enables AI assistants to control REAPER for mixing, mastering, MIDI composition and music production.

Version: 1.11.0

Why This Server

Workflow tools

In addition to direct control of REAPER, the server includes workflow tools that complete multi-step production tasks in a single call:

Tool	What it does for you
`setup_sidechain_compression()`	Creates send, routes to channels 3-4, configures ReaComp's detector input — complete sidechain setup in one call
`add_mastering_chain()`	Adds ReaEQ → ReaComp → ReaEQ → ReaLimit to master track with proper signal flow
`add_parallel_compression()`	Creates a bus track, sets up the send, adds compressor — NY-style compression ready to blend
`create_bus()`	Creates a submix track and routes your specified tracks to it
`get_project_summary()`	Returns track count, all track names/volumes/pans/FX, markers, regions, tempo, time signature — everything your AI needs in one call

Zero Configuration

File-based communication works immediately — no network setup, no ports to configure
Stock REAPER only: the bridge is a plain Lua script and the analyzer is a JSFX plugin, so you don't install anything else in REAPER
Copy the script, run it, connect your AI assistant

188 Tools Covering Real Production Needs

Full FX control — add/remove plugins, get/set any parameter by index, manage presets, bypass
FX parameter automation — automate any plugin knob (flanger depth, filter cutoff, etc.)
Complete routing — sends, receives, sidechain routing to specific channel pairs
Automation — create envelopes, add/edit points, set automation modes
MIDI — create items, add notes individually or in batches, edit velocities
MIDI editing — transpose, quantize with swing, humanize, snap to a scale, stretch, legato, strum, velocity ramps — each targetable by pitch range, beat window, or channel
Audio items — import, split, duplicate, fade, position, mute
Markers & regions: create, rename, delete and jump to them
Session organizing: move tracks and folders, hide tracks from the arrange view or mixer, set track heights, rename takes and set the project playback rate
Measurement: loudness, loudness range, true peak, the octave-band spectrum and stereo correlation for the master, a track or an item. It passes the EBU's synthetic compliance signals for loudness, true peak and loudness range.
Undoable edits: every change the AI makes is one named step in REAPER's undo history ("MCP: delete track"), so Ctrl+Z in REAPER reverses one tool call at a time

Requirements

REAPER (any recent version; full live suite green through REAPER 7.79)
Python 3.10+ (for the MCP server)
An MCP-compatible AI assistant

Installation

1. Install the Bridge Script in REAPER

The bridge is a Lua script that runs inside REAPER. The MCP server works on your project through it. Install it one of three ways.

Option A: one command, then run it once in REAPER

uvx twelvetake-reaper-mcp --install-bridge

That copies reaper_mcp_bridge.lua into REAPER's Scripts folder for your platform, and the TwelveTake MCP Analyzer, a JSFX plugin that the measurement tools use,
