I've been using Cubase since.. well Atari.. and on a daily basis since 1999.
I love my SX3 and with the latest update (2005) it is quite stable. However, I think Steinberg should get their shit together and have updates and bugfixes a lot lot more often. Since I have used it so much, I know it inside out, all key commands etc have my hundred presets etc.

I've been testing reaper lately, and they pretty much nailed it. By version 3 I am pretty sure it is going to be the perfect killer app. The sucky things about reaper has not to do with functionality, but more with the looks of it. It is quite ugly and it seems they need to hire a GUI designer. I'm quite sure they will, eventually when it is out of the quick development stage, where you would have to redesign pretty things every second. Also the name REAPER.. they should definitely rethink the name as I don't think it sounds very professional, not something I would tell a client I'm using.

Anyways, I think Reaper will eventually end up being a wonderful product and I think it is a very welcome 'enema' for the competition.

You asked which is better.. 'vs'

My answer is that both are better. You can record and mix good music with both.
For the price Reaper is excellent.
