I think you'll find its the other way around..

I used Cubase for elmost eight years, and I was very proud to have such an expensive and fully-featured host. I delighted in jeering at my friends who could not afford such an expensive sequencer. Until I stopped fearing the Reaper, I, myself, poked at other ambitious little DAW's with sticks while grunting. See, that's how I know.

It's kinda funny that the best REAPER skins seem to be those that overtly copy other sequencers that users have ditched/criticised. It seems like a real love/hate thing...

My favourite is the Logic skin for REAPER - fantastic

I was proud to own Logic because it did what wanted it to do, and now I'm proud to own Cubase which does it even better and more. I don't give a shit how much they cost.

I think Reaper is great -on paper at least- but I can't work in it. And that would be the same if it costs £10 or £1000.

I think you will find that almost none of the people that get into host flame wars ever make much music.

They just do benchmark tests and fiddle with automation and look for bugs or shortcomings in the gui and whatnot.

Present company excepted, of course.

When Reaper gets a decent score editor I might consider it. Until then, Cubase 4 is just fine, thanks.

Be honest, I know you just like playing with the dongle.

LOL, that's the funniest thing I've read in a long time. Tracktion is the worst coded, most bug ridden software in the history of DAWS. So bad I've heard Babya's moving on to Babya Tracktion.
LOL this is sooo funny - traktion 1 or 2 was the hottest host around with regular updates and a one man coding team that listened to it's userbase and with a rate of development that was going to kill all the big hosts - and then it wasn't - then there was energy xt - and then there wasn't - and now reaper - wonder how long this one will be cool for ? seems better than all the previous contenders, but doesnt offer anything much over cubase/sonar/logic et al

IDK, but pretty soon MU.LAB might become a serious option...

I think all those sequencers are garbage :/ if you want serious audio at least learn how to use logic. everything else will color your sound except pro tools. And protools is useless unless you've got money to blow. Possible MUTOOLS is good. but i havent used it since beta.

Haha, nah, Llukax is obviously joking.

At least I think he is...

i think they are

u are entitled to your opinion, even if i believe its stupid

It's pretty much a struggle to do anything in, say reaper, and have it sound good. Logic takes one try.

If that is indeed true, then I do believe you have/had an inferiority complex of sorts. (or, at the very least, your motives for selecting a DAW are/were rather misguided).

Until I stopped fearing the Reaper, I, myself, poked at other ambitious little DAW's with sticks while grunting. See, that's how I know.

I am of the belief that most people are capable of selecting a DAW (be it expensive or not) for the right reasons. Ergo, you may perchance not 'know' to the extent that you have indicated.

My head hurts.
