Wow! It would seem that finally the gimp-esque, "Reaper Rox" viral marketing has stopped and shifted to a new, slightly less annoyingly blatant tack.....
Can't wait for the "Sonar is no more" thread and the subsequent "Mac and Logic are departed" epics.

tracktion is stable? this must be some new feature.ChinaBitch wrote:Reaper is just a little project of wannabe programmers. Almost every day again an 'update' and still not stable. Rape the reaper go on for Tracktion! This is THE real deal.

but wait, don't synth-edit plugs take more resources to run typically?spitboxer wrote:Having wanted to try reaper out for a couple months, this thread prompted me to do it. I must say coming from Nuendo (5 years), it was a bit of a curve to get comfortable with. One thing I'm am ecstatic about is the cpu usage in reaper, I was able to push it past Nuendo with the lowest buffer settings, where as in Nuendo the same plugs/vsts, I would need my buffers maxed out to play... Makes me feel like nuendo is just so bloated and hogs resources. Thats one thing thats always frustrated me.
Looks like your analogy just went up in smoke djanthonyw...kind of like "microsoft is so commercial, so it must be amazing!"

Yep, it's true. I use Reaper, but I'm just a very rare exception to that rule. I don't use any synthedit plugins. I use Tone2, Ohmforce, and VemberAudio.djanthonyw wrote:I think it must be the same kind of people that like the Reaper more than a mature host, that think SynthEdit plugins are better than the commercial ones.

I gotta say guys, I'm actually scared to use Reaper for the simple fact that it might overshadow Logic/Ableton/Sonar/DP (which I own). However I doubt it will have the 'spur of the moment' flexibility that Live has, still, live is missing a few 'mixing' tools that I could use.
Yeah sure all the other have these and I use them but only because I've put thru my money on them.
Hmmm...I've installed reaper and opened it maybe once or twice yet, i'm still reticent to really finish a project with it.
I gotta say tho, after using alot of these programs, Cubase 4 seems the best for usability/stability. Except I get f***ing sick of changing cursors all the time. Ie pressing 1,2,3,4 etc for different cut/paste stuff.
Sonar though is really good for flexibility, yet you'd think for a Windows native application it'd be rock solid...well its not...
And Logic...well I love Logic yet as I was saying before, its not exactly a 'spur of the moment' application, it takes time to master, but its well worth it.
Oh and I own ProTools as well and lets just say, Sonar/Logic/Ableton/Cubase put it to shame (LE I'm talking about). Yes its a nice interface etc, but lack of VST support and delay makes it more cumbersome than it should be.
Oh well i've said enough.
