Hi,

I was browsing the wonderful world of online music freeware today and found a piece of software I hadn’t heard of before. It’s not freeware (so I won’t add it to the database) - though according to the site, there is a fully functional no-limitations version of the software available.

According to the Reaper website:

—-
