Question: You said you used Vegas & probably Ardour. Since, you are a developer of REAPER. Don't you use other DAWs, just to take ideas, features & tools from them? So that REAPER can give more or as much as other DAWs give? I guess, every software development companies do this, with their rival softwares. Asked by Curiosity (117.222.220.x) on April 1 2018, 2:08pm Reply on April 1 2018, 2:16pm: Nah, but there's no shortage of other people asking for features that they've used elsewhere. Most of my process is just making things I want to use, and using them. Using other DAWs would be tedious work. Comment... Question: If you weren't a developer of REAPER. And if REAPER was never invented. Then which DAW you were using now? (Just being curious :P) Asked by Curiosity (117.222.220.x) on March 31 2018, 2:44pm Reply on March 31 2018, 9:06pm (edited at March 31 2018, 9:07pm): Before I used REAPER the last thing I used was Vegas.. so maybe Acid Pro 7 or something? But that's been 12+ years so really I have no idea. Ardour? Comment... Question: How old was you when you learned programming the first time?

Comment... Question: Do aliens (living beings other than in Earth) exists? Just forget those scary Hollywood movies for now. And think, that Earth can't be just a single habitable planet in this (observable) universe (which is even much bigger than 91 billion light years). Asked by Abhijeet (117.207.143.x) on March 30 2018, 5:02am Reply on March 30 2018, 9:47pm: Sure, they probably exist or have existed, but they're unfortunately probably really, really, REALLY, REALLY far away (and as a result, maybe their transmissions won't get here for millions of years too?)...

Question: After REAPER v5.99, will you create another update and name it v5.991? Or you make an upgrade to v6.00?

Asked by btcguy (24.5.71.x) on March 23 2018, 2:41pm Reply on March 23 2018, 9:23pm: Interesting concept, but in practice it is a ridiculous waste of energy and of people's time.
