Description : Cockos Reaper is one of the most advanced programs for creating music, both in the studio and at home. The main feature of the program is that it has pattern, keyboard and audio editing. You can set an unlimited number of audio or midi tracks, not counting how many virtual instruments of VST format can be added.
Reaper takes not so much space on the hard disk and does not load the processor, as programs from the FL Studio, Cubase, Reason or Sonar series. With this program, you can work 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 own compositions with professional sound even in formats such as 5 + 1, and if there are additional plug-ins, and 7 + 1.
The great advantage of the program is that it supports VST / VST3, not counting support for DirectX plug-ins. You can use both built-in audio editing or midi tracks, and third-party plug-ins. The program also supports the connection of virtual tools ReWire. Thanks to the harmonious interface, you can always see what you are editing at the moment. A virtual multichannel remote control is always in front of your eyes – with its help you can instantly perform operations with changing the volume, editing effects on both a single track, and on the Master track.
