I like it
It punches well above it's weight. The time stretching algorithms are fantastic. It does everything you could ask of it and a shitload more. Win.

I've just downloaded reaper and gonna give it a wee test run this weekend
@ Reaper users. How is it for chopping up breaks, editing midi and general sample management ?
Cheers

i downloaded this a couple of weeks ago meaning to try it out as a multichannel vst host but got sidetracked and forgot about it, thanks for the reminder
i would like a vst host that can handle instruments with 8 i/o channels (per instrument) , can reaper do this?

chopping up breaks: pretty good..i love working with audio like that in a daw and I'm more satisfied with reapers interface for this than ANY modern daw (see: sonar, cubase, logic etc)
editing midi: really powerful...slightly wonky but i'mgetting used to it. love multiple windows for different CC graphs...plus the option of dragging/copying notes and taking along the associated CC values which is a really cool feature. They are updating midi functionality every week.
media management: there is a media manager..looks cool..i never use this shit.

it has the best routing abilities out of any piece of software i've ever seen...save for max/msp, puredata, reaktor etc.
reaper's functionality in this regard is top. also automation is amazing aswell...it's almost criminal how much fun that shit can get.

its good. but changing sequencer after 15 years of cubase is going to be to much or a learning curve for me. but for someone starting out or not too bothered about learning a new program its unbelievable for $60 and 4mb install it puts the others to shame
no bloat, fair price, all the features you expect from a daw and they will listen to there users
Reaper - Hovver - 15th November 2009
aye. Had a look at it but to be honest it may as well have been written in Hebrew, for all that I could understand
Like Leo said, FAR to many years of cubase/logic for it not to completely melt my mind
Reaper - 0=0 - 16th November 2009
guys, the learning curve isn't really that high...they didn't reinvent the wheel..it's a fuckin' daw. it's just more comprehensive and fun than cubase(how i loathe theee).

i had a good go on it this weekend and i really like it so far. Does a much better job of rewire hosting than cubase, and it lets you do some cool multiple io routing shit with VSTs that I don't think is even possible in cubase or live.
also, it loads in about 3 seconds
Reaper - dsp - 16th November 2009
have been rtfm'ing all morning and it looks pretty much like a few hard weeks of un-remembering things / habits
I did get this ages ago and have a mess about , i have even recommended it to a few people know what its capable of, im going to give it a shot we will see if i stick with it, the program is all i want in terms of foot print and compatibility.
The thing is 0=0 work flow get reduced when your trying to learn new stuff so if it impacts your actual time spent to much its a negative tool rather than positive.
Saying that when cubase crashes thats 100% A negative fucking impact
if it gets on with my sl25, uads and soundcard it might be a keeper

tried this for about an hour, uad plugs killed it every time.

yes seems some issues on the forums i think uad1 works ok,will see what happens as rs88 is my most used plug i hope its not gonna give me issues
Reaper - Ashtonron - 16th November 2009
Tried it out for an hour.. and there are some really nice bits, especially like the idea of a track being a track no need for the audio track / midi track concept...
I am too used to ableton live though and running on OSX it is a bit unstable... crashed it 3 times...
One I will be watching though...

charlie yamaberg might be losing a few punters then, im glad i did not upgrade to 5, i do love cubase but its just they need a more flexible / open aproach to the software and it does get buggier as the years go on.

Will check this out, sounds good
Reaper - assemblyworker - 23rd November 2009
I want to give this a go for teaching purposes, would be good after teaching some kiddy how to make beats that the software didn't cost over £300.
Reaper - dsp - 21st November 2010
just gone back to this after 6 months of forgetting about it
the price has one down to $40
slowly adapting it to my cubase ways, Its so fucking customizable takes a bit of work but its capable of most things except proper ctrl d behaviour in the midi editor and right click apply vst fx. but for the money and the features steinberg can go fuck em selves
Reaper - noisemonkey - 22nd November 2010
$40? might have to invest
