Note 1: To hear VReorder properly you should use it as an insert, or send audio to it "pre" fader and mute the audio itself. The latter can be done with the "mute" and "pre" buttons on the channel EQ/Effects send dialog.

Note 2: Due to the nature of VReorder it will not make any sound until a full loop length has passed. This is not a bug, so it must be a feature!

Note 3: To get a repeating loop you need to set the BPM to as near as possible to the song BPM. Within about 0.05 is fine, and slightly above is better than slightly below. You may also need to adjust the trigger sensitivity.

This effect chops up a fixed loop length of incoming audio into 16 parts and allows you to position each of the parts in any order (with redundancy) and specify the level, pan, and whether each part is reversed. You can really mutate a drum beat or vocal part, or just make a single snare drum reversed and not touch the rest. The best way of understanding the effect is to fiddle with it.
