REAPER is a powerful but sensible Windows application that lets you record, arrange, edit, and render multi-track waveform audio. It provides an extensive set of features, but is a very small and lightweight application (the installer is less than 1 megabyte, and includes many effects and a sample project).

REAPER supports ASIO, Kernel Streaming, WaveOut, and DirectSound for playback and recording. It reads WAV, OGG, and MP3 files, and records WAV files. You can arrange any number of items in any number of tracks and use audio processing plug-ins (DirectX and Jesusonic). REAPER also supports volume, pan controls and envelopes per track, multi-layer undo/redo, and user creatable color themes.

    One of the Best and Easiest to get started up and running true Pro Recording Software out there at an unbelievable Price ! Reaper is both Very Powerful and Easy to use. I do not know about other Musicians and Sound Engineers/Producers and Song Writers out there, but, what I can say is the Reaper Software is as good and or better than Pro Tools or any other Recording Software out there at any price, Period !!!!. And it only gets better and even more powerful as time goes by. The Reaper Software Updates released on a regular basis and also a big plus is the Reaper Software Programmers actually do listen to their User Base !!! Wow', now if we could only get Congress, GM and Chrysler to listen to us.......? Na', that will never happen........

    Pretty good program. Top marks for actually naming their software company "c***os".. a nickname I've given to MacOS for years now..

    There really aren't words to describe how spectacular this piece of software has become over the last few years.
    With version 3 it has really solidified and become strongly worth considering among the expensive alternatives.

    Pretty amazing product - keeps improving and improving, non-crippled demo with just a nagscreen and very very cheap if you buy it.
    Incredibly small size, fully vst compatible etc etc etc

    - check it out!
