But there are some caveats, largely having to do with the new commercial pricing: There are some really powerful features in there as far as editing, subtleties that really have no direct equivalent in other software I’m seeing. The real story here is how quickly the software has evolved, as seen in screen shots. REAPER now features music by Brad Sucks as a demo, giving it extra street cred. Tasty bundled effects: a sidechain-enabled noisegate and compressor with look-ahead, an “FFT EQ+dynamics processor” (um, okay!), and a convolution reverb.VST and DX plug-in support (effects and instruments) with latency compensation, real-time and offline processing, and even supports for the Jesusonic (the crucifix-style computer shown below.Configurable UI, keyboard shortcuts, and colors.MIDI support (not present in early releases), which lets you add MIDI to audio tracks, record MIDI from audio inputs, and other nice tricks.Direct multi-track recording to WAV/W64/BWF, MIDI, WavPack, FLAC, and OGG.Unusually flexible routing, which allows any track to arbitrarily be a track and a bus, a sophisticated monitoring and matrix facility, and support for feedback routing.Seamless, tool-less editing with arbitrary grouping of objects, automation envelopes, markers, and everything you’d expect.The basic price, US$39.95, is a bargain for what this software does: (This week significant bugfixes and optimizations, plus editable keyboard shortcuts, were released in updates the software now looks quite stable.) During the beta, REAPER was free, but now you’ll have to pay for it. REAPER, the promising, lightweight audio software from the creator of Winamp, hit version 1.0 last week. Windows audio software from the maker of Winamp has its coming-out party - but there’s a cover charge.
