Might be. But I see ignorance is your best feature.

That's a wee bit sensitive, isn't it? Sorry I (and several others here) insulted your favorite DAW, but geez, dude, maybe you should grow up and learn to accept other people's opinions without the personal attacks, particularly when the comment has nothing to do with you. Reaper has a well-earned reputation of having an ugly interface by a pretty substantial number of people here, so maybe you could learn to deal with that like an adult.

Also, having an opinion is not ignorant, but not knowing the definition of ignorance is. Hope you learned something today. :wink:

Not if I want tempo and chord tracks and seamless Melodyne integration it won't.
You must be one of the 2 out of 10... :hihi:

Bitwigs the Grit (I have Reaktor here but still it´s not 100% the same)
Bitwigs Dual Screen Preset (Ok My Reaper is after countless hours of Work also a Nice Dual Setup )
Bitwigs Modulations Modules (Stepsequenzer for Parameter just to name one ). Specially the GUI
Logics Sculpture ... Only Plugin I really miss after the change from Logic to Reaper.
Logics Note editor (With some Configs I'm pretty close to it.) Special the Auto Note length after first note insert
Logics Loops and Samples.
Logics Arp,Chord MIDI-FX (Reapers is just meh)
Studio Ones VST Sidebar with drag and drop.(Ok this is just a nice to have thing),
but here I got my own solution with the Icon bar

Never tried Bitwig, but this sounds good.
Though Reaper's current automation items are actually really capabable/shapable.
The GAS is always greener on the other side!

And so domineering when cross :love:

Post

A modulation system similar to Bitiwg

A sample editor that can do the usual plus do crossfade loops similar to waverobot.

A better score editor and associated features

An easy way to have screensets with empty midi editors that follow midi item selection

A native track inspector similar to Logic

A more elegant side chaining system. Just the usual drop down menu would do.

Less ugly.

Your opinion is ignorant, and can be ignorant. It's quite easy to grasp. Even for you.

REAPERs GUI is without a doubt the Fugliest, most inconsistent, incoherent around by a huge margin. Some of these different areas of REAPER, like the add plugin window look like it came from 1995, now from what I have read from the devs, this can't easily be changed because of the way the developed it, it uses standard Windows dohickeys or something, and would require huge work to change, and they have no interest in changing it anyway.

Yes REAPER has a lot of custom themes, but they all pretty much suck and have issues, I use to always end up back with the default, but the thing is it's like putting lipstick on a pig, and as the old saying goes, "you can't make a silk purse out of a sows ear". REAPER is ugly at it's heart, no amount of 'prettying' up will fix that.

Usually the aesthetics is enough to put most people off on it's own, without getting to the UX issues, the hideousness of the menus, the crappy FX, all those hideous jsfx, all the flaky user made scripts and on and on it goes. REAPERs future is much like that of Linux, because they share a certain ethos, it will always be on the edge, never really taken seriously, and enjoy a comparatively low user numbers.

REAPER . . . pffffttt
