Just FYI, in case anyone is interested, Reaper is providing a temporary license thru the end of March… I don’t know how this differs from “evaluating” Reaper, but just passing it along in case it helps anyone.
The link for the temp license is at the top of the page linked above…
I might check it out. I’ve been using Logic Pro, which I love a lot, but I’m considering moving my music making to Windows. I hear people rave about Reaper a lot. I do wonder how it looks/feels compared to Logic Pro.
As an interface developer, I think Reaper lacks in this field, the interface (especially submenus and vst configuration) is not the most beautiful out of them all. But what it lacks in beauty it compensates in flexibility
Yeah, I kinda got that impression. As an Apple user, I’ve kinda gotten used to slick and pretty UIs though. I’m hoping I don’t find Reaper clunky because of that. Then again, I might just stay with Apple for my music stuff. Haven’t decided yet.
Nothing compares to Reaper’s speed and stability as well as it’s customizability. You can also run Reaper on 10 year old machine…which other DAW can do that? I wasn’t really thrilled with it’s GUI but once I started working with it I really could not care less at this point. I’ll take performance over GUI every time.
