Software Update: Reaper 3.0.6

Reaper is a comprehensive program for Windows and Mac OS X that allows audio to be recorded and then edited in a multitrack environment. For an overview of all possibilities, we refer you to this pagefor various screenshots to this page and to listen to works made with the program you can go to this page justly.
