I've made the switch to Reaper!

Hi nsmadsen, nice reading your story, software should help you not fight you,that's why most of us are here , enjoy the forums and the software ;)

Just an update for all of you- I just finished all of the audio content for this game. In total 35 SFX and 18 music cues and most of them done within Reaper. I think only two or three were done with Sonar before switching over. Each time I use Reaper it gets more fluid and productive and I can definitely say it was one of the major factors for me finishing this large amount of content on time! I'm completely and utterly sold on this program! For anyone reading this that might still be somewhat hesitant or doubtful, don't be. You're in good hands! Thanks, Nate -- Nathan Madsen Composer-Sound Designer

Cool. FUNimation. I've seen that logo on my home theatre setup quite a few times. Kudos. :D

Hi Nate and welcome to the forums from me as well! We like to hear those stories. :) Additionally to Dragon's advice to install the SWS extensions here's another one: opposed to many other DAWs in Reaper the right mouse button is your friend. Now that you've finished your work, you may have a little more time to check out Reaper. Go to the actions menu. There you can assign all functions to keyboard bindings that you're familiar with from Sonar, hence working with Reaper has even less impact on your workflow. -Data

Sort of OT ... 

Same story - and never tired of hearing it! 

Welcome to Reaper - from one of the many Pro Tools converts. Same story as yours - and I've never looked back.

I laughed when I read that comment about Sonar now feeling alien - I fired up Sonar 6 the other day to pull a mix out of it - sheesh I was absolutely hopeless!! And thats after being a 24/7 Sonar user for years in those dark pre Reaper days Cheers Jed

Welcome aboard. Just by your testimonial, you've delivered a massive credibility shot. Good on you!
