Cockos Reaper is one of the most advanced music production software for both studio and home use. The main feature of the program is that it has pattern, keyboard and audio editing. You can specify an unlimited number of audio or midi tracks, not counting how many VST virtual instruments can be added.
Reaper takes up less space on your hard drive and does not load the processor, like programs from the FL Studio, Cubase, Reason or Sonar series. You can work with this program even on low-power computers with sound cards that do not support Full duplex operating modes. Although, if the soundcard supports this mode, you will get unlimited opportunities to create your compositions with professional sound even in formats such as 5 + 1, and with additional plug-ins, even 7 + 1.
A huge plus of the program is that it supports VST / VST3, not counting the support for DirectX plugins. You can use both the built-in editing tools for audio or midi tracks, as well as third-party plugins. The program also supports the ReWire virtual instrument connection system.
Thanks to the harmonious interface, you can always see what you are editing at the moment. A virtual multi-channel console is always in front of your eyes – with its help you can instantly perform operations with changing the volume, editing effects both on a single track and on the Master track.
