You might want to hold onto Reaper as a backup in case PT8 starts shittin the bed on you.
You using PT to mix over Reaper?
How is PT these days?
My biggest gripe with Reaper is the use of hardware effects as inserts. It works but there's times where it can be a little off for people, I've never had any problems with it.
I use my 8 track reel to reel like a plug in and Reaper syncs it up fine. Audio out from the computer to the in on the reel to reel. Out from the tape deck set to Repro mode back into the DAW. Put Reainsert on the track you want to sweeten with tape. Hit record on the deck. Ping the deck from Reainsert. Voila! Sync!
The only bitch I really do have is how Reaper freezes those hardware inserts. Takes a few commands but fine otherwise. And you only have to do it once.
I think for the average guy, a $50 DAW solution is the ticket. Who could argue with that?
