To the comment earlier about smart quantizing, not sure what advantage PL really has there, since Reaper has tons of parameters for quantizing, but I admit ignorance with logic. I also do a lot of MIDI work, and Reaper works great. No need to break the bank either, I use a 2 input Behringer I got for $120, and I've never had a problem with it. I'm not sure what issues you are having with audio, but if you have a decent audio interface, you are golden. Hi ya, I've been using Reaper heavily for years on Windows now, and if you are willing to put in the time needed to learn how to use Reaper, it is fantastic. What about the learning curves? Thanks for any help. I'm wondering, as somebody new to DAW software and very much a fan of having accessible instruments built in (I don't have anywhere near the money or room for all the synths I want), and unhappy with how Windows handles basically anything I plug in, would Logic be worth it? Is it any more or less accessible than Reaper? How does the workflow differ between the two? I've heard that VSTs tend to not be very accessible with Reaper as well. The research I've done says it's kind of a toss-up between the two DAWS. I've used GarageBand on my iPhone and I very much like the fact that there are instruments built in, and I know that both are built on the same codebase. I've been considering giving a Mac another go exclusively as an audio production rig, so probably a Mac Mini with tons of RAM, as well as Logic. Currently I use a trial version of Reaper on a Windows machine, but the more I try to use it, the more I resent how Windows handles audio, USb, and MIDI. I've been getting really hard into music production, and the biggest hurdle standing in my way is the DAW.

Can you run logic pro x on windows
