Lines from the picture.
No cue list? Speech recognition (Whisper) finds the lines in the video or ISO tracks – offline, on your Mac.

macOS 13 or newer · REAPER 7 or newer · signed & notarized installer
01 / Built for the session
From picture to final take.
Everything an ADR session needs, inside REAPER: cues, beeps, overlay, takes, mix and delivery – for single voices and groups.
Any cue list.
CSV, Excel, TSV, TXT, SRT, VTT and EDL markers. Columns are detected, and lines can be translated offline on import.
Pre-roll. Beeps. Take.
Pick a cue, press START ADR. The actor hears three beeps and sees the line and countdown over the picture.
Every pass in its place.
Each take lands exactly on its cue. Circle the best, keep an alt, edit or comp. False starts are removed automatically.
Hear what you choose.
Switch between guide, REC and takes. Monitor original, dialog or M&E – or split your own M&E from the mix.
Record together.
Group recording guides overlapping dialogue for up to four speakers in one pass.
Small window, full control.
MINI shrinks BLEEEPS to a transport bar. Open the cue list underneath and jump to any line with one click.
Mix the performance.
A separate mix session with picture, M&E, music and SFX. Choose takes, place SPOT markers, export the mix.
Circle. Export. Done.
Broadcast WAV with timecode and iXML, MP3 and ZIP. Plus ADR report and cue lists for the next room.
One export window.
WAV, MP3 or both. Peak or LUFS normalize, fades, ZIP. Sorted into folders, then shown in Finder.
Wet, dry or with sends.
Dialog, full mix, M&E and stems per actor – as heard, channel only or dry. Bypass all cue FX with one click.
Many versions, one project.
Episodes, trailers and language versions – each with its own picture, timecode and cues. Show the lines in the language you need.
02 / Setup
Getting started.
The installer does the work: BLEEEPS, the REAPER extensions and – if you want – speech recognition, overlay and translation.
You need: a Mac with macOS 13 or newer (Apple Silicon recommended) · REAPER 7 or newer, started once · internet for setup and the first activation · for COMPLETE: Homebrew, an admin account and a few GB of disk space.
- Get the beta with the button below. You receive the download and your license key (valid 2 months) by e-mail.
- Quit REAPER, unzip and double-click BLEEEPS Setup.app. macOS asks once – click Open.
- Click CHECK, then CORE (record only) or COMPLETE (recommended, with speech recognition, overlay and translation – 5–20 min).
- REAPER starts by itself and opens BLEEEPS. Enter your key and click Activate. One key works on 2 Macs.
- Stuck? The manual is in the download and online.
03 / Beta
BLEEEPS 7.3 Beta for Mac.
An early version, tested in real sessions but still a beta. You get the signed installer, the manual in 7 languages, an example cue list and a beta license key for 2 computers, valid for 2 months. Please work on a copy of your project, not the original.

04 / Good to know
What this beta does not do (yet).
- Mac only. macOS 13 or newer. A Windows version comes later.
- REAPER only. BLEEEPS does not run inside Pro Tools or Nuendo – but the exported Broadcast WAVs with timecode go into any DAW.
- No AAF / OMF. Delivery is Broadcast WAV with timecode, MP3, mixes and stems.
- Speech recognition is a draft. Check texts and cue borders. Speakers in a mixed video are not told apart – you assign the lines yourself.
- Intel Macs are slow at speech recognition. Apple Silicon is strongly recommended.
- Without COMPLETE there is no speech recognition, no overlay and no automatic frame-rate detection.
- Translation is offline machine translation – a starting point, not a final script.
- SRT, VTT and EDL have no role column. After import the role is the actor name. Excel, CSV and TSV keep the role.
- A cut EDL is not a cue list. Only EDLs with markers can be imported.
- Group recording: the overlay shows up to 4 speakers at the same time.
- Takes follow a moved cue only while a BLEEEPS window is open. Keep MINI open while you edit.
- Mix session: no line overlay on the mix video yet, and changes in the mix never go back to the ADR session.
- Conform to a new cut is experimental and switched off by default. Check every result.
- Beta license: one key for 2 computers, valid for 2 months from download. The first activation needs internet, after that it also works offline.
