cptsparkle Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Hi, I was curious if anyone here uses Reaper Editing software. Your opinions are solicited. Thanks much. Wayne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GKIye Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 Is this the software you mean ? http://www.reaper.fm/ it looks very impressive ! The look does remind Me to a "mix" of the Magix Next Generation and Adobe I'm not familiar with reaper, but it looks as a real recording studio Thanks for sharing the idea ! Visit and listen @ BW !

jnorth Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 I don't USE it but I have tried it. It's an OK and cheap alternative if you are looking for something like that. Gives you extra flexibility over something like Audacity on a tight budget. I do not like it, though. I don't find it to be user friendly. Reaper makes things complicated when they should be simple. But you get what you pay for. Voiceover & Radio Imaging Production Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilad79 Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 I've always used Cool Edit, it does the job for me. Failing that, Adobe Audition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cptsparkle Posted November 8, 2010 Author Share Posted November 8, 2010 After my best attempt at even trying to work with Reaper I gave up. It is less expensive than AA but not worth the time it would take to learn the software to any point of competence. AA just seems to be a little more user friendly plus the benefits of a multitude of VSTs and the compatibility with external devices. If you can afford it, go with Adobe Audition. Just my opinion folks. Waynem aka: cptsparkle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeolus Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 Never used or tried it, first thing which comes to mind when seeing this is that it looks very similar to pro tools. So that's not a bad thing at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnorth Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 Pro Tools is 10000000000 times better than Reaper. Reaper may look similar to PT but a lot of the functionality is much different in my experience. Voiceover & Radio Imaging Production Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aeolus Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 Hi JM, I must disagree on you there. I recently bought Protools M-Powered 8 secondhand for 150 euro's (newprice in stores here is 185 euro's). If i compare that wiith the price for audition listed on the adobe website (which says 415 euro's) i see a price difference, but the other way around like you say it. Don't get me wrong, i'm not saying that audition is rubbish. I've used it way before i used pro tools, (on a what i think is a pretty advanced level) and sometimes i still use it. If you just want to do Voiceovers, audition is probably the best to go with, but if you are (like me) into creating imaging, then i must say pro tools is the better choice. Having a bigger toolbox with it to do my tricks with, and also it really enhances my workflow... i'm working so much faster with pro tools !

Aeolus Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 ah, now i see, something happened again which i missed Well, in that case just stick to the conclusion that pro tools is awesome ! \o/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthOMike Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 So far I've been using NCH's MixPad software. It's been doing good, but do not like the cash cow they seem to want to make it. Buy it, updates good for 3 months, then if they do a major fix it becomes an UpGrade...more money. To some, that can be a good thing, but to those of us with limited income it becomes, as I said, a cash cow - for them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
