Studio one i have tracked about a dozen serious projects in and maybe 40 or 50 little ones. I am super familiar with it. Reaper not so much really. I do like Reaper for it's basic look and flexibility. My problem is the routing. it can be overwhelming and confusing. I think sometimes Reaper shoots it's self in the foot simply by it's own nature. It is kind of user driven to a large part. Sometimes that can be a double edged sword.

Bottom line is all these excellent programs do a cool job. One just has to find a workflow that suits them, at a price point that make sense.
