I personally wouldnt want to do a session on Reaper right now.

Just finished tracking a 4 band project on Cubase and it worked really well. I was already used to Nuendo so it wasnt exactly a big jump from PT HD but I was surprised how quickly things got done.

Reaper works but I really dont like the interface. Opening a new plugin is a chore and dealing with the audio waveforms is not fun. Also, the gain laws or whatever you call it didnt seem right and the interface is cluttered.

Spend some time with it and it doesnt sound too bad though. I like how the meters show RMS and Peak. I was also impressed with how flawlessly it will accept UAD-1 plugins.

Not saying Reaper is bad - just saying I wouldnt pay for it at the moment.

*However* I have a feeling Reaper is going way cooler fast...
