I use Logic Studio 8. Reaper looks like Garageband for the PC to me.

looks can be decieving.

Logic "looks" like a bunch of bloatware but im sure it has redeeming qualities or else so many people wouldnt use it.

whatever works for YOU is great.

all i know is, when reaper comes out on mac, there will be some heads turned.
 
I have used the Boss BR-1600 DAW, Roland VS-2000 DAW, old school Cubase, Cool Edit Pro and then Adobe Audtion 1, 2, and 3, Ableton Live, Garage Band, Pro Tools, and nTrack.


By far, Reaper is most compatible with how I like to work.

Everything loads fast, is incredibly stable, incredibly compatible with all my hardware and plug-ins, and impresses me everytime I use it.

I can't kiss it's ass enough.

yeah - I'm sure it'll put a hurtin' on Logic... Once you begin to explore the power of Logic you may realize why so many professionals the world over have chosen it - even over Pro Tools. I'm running the beta of Reaper for Mac OS X - it's alright, but I don't believe we're talking the same ballpark...

:rolleyes:

again, whatever works for YOU is cool...

but reaper has tons of features that the mac version doesnt reflect yet. Not to mention its lightweight and can run from a usb stick.. can logic do that? :)

again, its dumb to have a host war. But im sure there's alot of people using logic that dont need all of its frills, and cant settle for something like garageband.... reaper will fit in quite nicely there :)

perhaps you can mention some things that reaper lacks in comparison to logic. (im sure there are many, im just curious)

i can think of

1. not as comprehensive midi

2. no integrated audio editor (but lots of great tools for destructive editing)

oooh two Argument From Popularity fallacies in one thread

What does he win Alex?
 
I owned M-Powered Pro Tools for around 4 months or so.

It excelled at sucking the nut.

Really really worked well for that.
 
Wow this went downhill fast ..........

Funnily enough I spent yesterday afternoon writing a pitch for the equipment for my school's purpose-built new music department.

Logic's notation capabilities are just about strong enough to ignore Sibelius for our purposes, and the bundled instruments are quite impressive, but beyond that I was clutching at straws to justify buying 50 licences of Logic over 50 of Reaper.

The decision's on hold till the Mac version of Reaper comes out and I guess we'll probably end up not being able to afford all Logic and go for a Garageband / Logic hybrid ..... but it surprised me how hard it was to justify all of that extra cost when I looked properly at the relevant features.

For a primarily audio user ........... £319 for Logic or £25 for Reaper???

Still, when you look at what you get in Garageband for free, you can see why EVERY new Mac user in the world has it! :p :p (Sorry pipeline)
