Now if you don't make any money off of Cubase or Logic (etc).. then you should be buying the light versions. Dont complain because products designed for pros are not cheap.  |
The problem is that the price tag does not equate to better.
Certainly Reaper has room to grow, and may noy have every feature you need (though not likely). In fact, you might even have to learn differant ways of doing things. Many people come to the Reaper forum asking, or complaining, about thier certain feature needs.
Almost without fail there is a way to do it.....quickly. When there is'nt, and there is a great enough need for everyone, it generally gets added in a matter of days, sometimes hours.
The $960 price differance (that $800 for pros) is not justifiable. If you spent a grand on something you could have got for $200, well that sucks and I am sorry for you. (
I feel you got ripped off)
Again the $1000 price tag doesnt make Logic or any other App more capable.
Unfortunatly there is a underlying belief that more expensive equates to better. The facts are the two are not always, or even usually related.
Some things in the hardware world cost more to produce and justify a higher price tag, but generally not anywhere near what we will pay for them. IE if a great mic cost $50 more in components than the Chinese version, why does it cos $4000 dollars more? Because it make Pros feel better about there gear? Ok, but Im out.
