What other people choose to do is not on me. I use Studio One (that I purchased) and all I said was the trial period of Reaper is indefinite AND free. I feel the need to mention - again - that I never advocated for stealing nor do I do it myself. Everyone got a chance to try it, and those that liked it could buy it. It’s the reason Reaper has become so ubiquitous amongst hobbyists and professionals alike. It’s on the developers for including an indefinite trial period. If someone chooses to indefinitely use the trial period, that’s not on me. It’s not like I’m advocating stealing, but I can’t control what other people do. Nobody is just going to drop $80 right out the gate for software that they haven’t tried when they could try it for free first. Reaper is a great DAW and most people in the industry know that.Īnd sure, it’s against the license agreement, but: 1. The fact that we’re talking about it in the same breath as pro tools and studio one has shown what they were able to do with their pricing model and trial period. But if you insist on it, make sure whatever perpetual license you buy is current (it might not be, as they stopped selling perpetual licenses). If you’re starting from the ground up, I wouldn’t go protools. And there are bazillions of other options now. Logic, reaper, studio one, all are used in studios. But don’t buy into something because it’s the industry standard. They only really have a legacy because they were the only option for a while. They love forcing upgrades on you, and I think they rely too heavily on their legacy. My system would crash more than occasionally, and when they switched to the subscription I would as done. I could never get into reaper, and studio one, while the workflow is a little different, does everything protools did for me. I went to school and was trained in protools. Loads of people trashing avid and recommending reaper.
