Just mentioned it because it is useful functionality to have, and it might be useful for users of other hosts to know they can get it.

I have them in my default track template in Sonar so I dont forget to use them ;)
Good thinking :D

Hi,
Could somebody point me in what aspects it's weak regarding midi, compared do different sequencers?

As stated on another thread, I'm a beginner look for a host and I strangely like Reaper's ui and "transparency".

Thanks,
Walter

It's the only daw besides maybe SAW (that I know of) that can launch from a USB key. I can take it with me and use it anywhere without installing it. That alone (considering it actually does work) was worth the $50 non-commercial price tag.

I use Cubase 4 at home... and Reaper everywhere else... in a non-commercial form. It's invaluable to have a pro daw that you can lauch and mix audio files on just about any PC.

Without installing anything. And without risking my valuable Cubase 4 USB key and license by toting it everywhere. :) Call it "USB Key Insurance".

Well, actually two reasons. The other being just to support what seems to be a fine effort at something new.

Nice!

Lots of people say "You can do anything you want in Reaper!".

And sure, for the most part you can. But you can also go anywhere in the world if you just build your own v-22 osprey.

:lol:

breathe in... breathe out... phewwwww....

memyselfandus: Why did you resurrect a thread that was nearly a DECADE old?

MODS: Can the forum not alert people that they are replying to a thread that died before the very first iPhone came out...

Reaper does not work with my Win 98 machine, so that's the main reason I don't use it.
But! I heard they're coming out with an app for my Razor phone. Anyway, I'm off to see Spiderman 3, so none of this is really important.
