22% better on most systems, however, with the right components and a suitable monitor you can see results up to 35% better. You have to be careful with larger monitors, however. If the sample rate of your audio system is a close multiple of the refresh rate of your monitor, then the increased video-magnetic field can cause a beating effect due to video-audio intermodulation distortion.

Imagine if REAPER didn't have access to the third party plugins. You wouldn't make much with it (unlike, say, Reason or FL Studio).

And you know what:
That´s the reason they gave every user the access to nearly all available 3rd party plugin formats... :tu:

??? Aside from the stock bundled plugins, which cover just about everything, there are about ten million JS plugins for Reaper that do the rest.

Unless you're talking about bundled instruments, which never moved my needle when it came to buying a DAW license. But to imagine Reaper not having VST compatibilty is sort of like imagining FL Studio without writing wav capability. It's something it DOES have. As it is you can use any plugin you like in Reaper, instrument or effect.

DAWs like Reason or FL Studio are such different animals, geared toward looping compositions, songwriting, club tracks etc. in ways that other DAWs just leave to them. If you don't make that kind of music, their workflow and built in tools and instruments literally don't offer anything a user of another DAW, including Reaper, yearns for. They're not workflows that lend themselves to the kinds of productions Reaper (or xyz DAW) excels at.

I don't do loops. So in your opinion I cannot make a symphonic music in Reason and FL Studio? Do they restrict me in that?

The other way around! Imagine stripping away ALL bundled content from each DAW.
Now compare them.

What a ridiculous argument, you're literally inventing limitations to try and make your case?

"Imagine if FL didn't record audio, you wouldn't make much guitar based music!" :nutter:

As it stands, Reaper has some of the best support for third party plugins, all the VSTs including 32 bit, LV2, CLAP, ancient ol' DX and even it's own JS format allowing anyone to simply code their own plugs. Can FL or Reason match that?

Correct, you would be left with a guitar and your voice.
