Roomservicev 1.0freeREAPER only

Good evening, Mr. Torrance. Your room, as ordered: concrete, door half open, a loudspeaker, a tricycle in motion in the corridor — and an echo, for ever and ever.

Roomservice is not your usual reverb plugin. Roomservice translates the script into sound. You direct.

A JSFX plugin for REAPER 7 only · macOS and Windows · built for audio post professionals and students of sound design, music & audio post. Hear. See. Learn. AND ACTION!

Download the plugin roomservice.jsfx

The plain file. In REAPER: Menu → Options → Show REAPER resource path in Finder/Explorer → open the folder “Effects” → create the folder dmajorsound (optional, it keeps your plugins apart) → copy roomservice.jsfx into it.

Download the installer roomservice_1.0_installer.zip

Unzip, double-click, done. Finds REAPER and puts the plugin in place for you — macOS and Windows. Both systems ask for a security approval on first launch: macOS via right-click → Open, Windows via “More info” → “Run anyway”.

The Basic view of Roomservice, shown half in the light and half in the dark theme
Basic. Four cards and the room map. Enough for a first result.
The Expert view of Roomservice, shown half in the light and half in the dark theme
Expert. The Stage View on top, one module per tab underneath.

Each screenshot is split: light theme on one side, dark on the other. The plugin follows your setting.

Roomservice runs inside REAPER only. JSFX is REAPER's own plugin format, so the file does nothing in any other DAW. You need REAPER 7.x for macOS or Windows — free to try, and Roomservice works in it right away. reaper.fm/download

Free field

Think outside the box.

It is called Roomservice, but who cares? Sound is fun outdoors too, especially when it reflects. Ground, facades, reflectors.

Secret tip: switch off the outline view. (In dark mode ✨)

At a glance

  • Asphalt · grass · snow
  • Facade · glass · rock · fence · hedge
Free field: an open area with two reflectors

Motion

The sporty part of Roomservice 🏃🏻

Where there is sound, there is motion. You decide what moves and how. Nothing fits? Draw it! Doppler effect? Yes, that works too. REAPER turns it into automation.

At a glance

  • Circle · pass-by · left–right · own path
  • Doppler off, natural or up to ×16

Easy installation through REAPER

Menu → Options → Show REAPER resource path in Finder/Explorer → open the folder “Effects” → create the folder “dmajorsound” → copy “roomservice.jsfx” into it.

You do not have to create the dmajorsound folder, but it helps you tell your plugins apart in REAPER. No subscription, no account, no dependencies. Afterwards you find it as JS: Roomservice - by dmajorsound.
