Well, I've been so impressed with Reaper that I decided to buy it. Probably the best $40 I've ever spent. I've been playing around with it for about a week now, and it feels like it was built for me specifically. I'm currently in the process of re-doing my personal studio. I have some new Alesis M1's on the way. Was going to get the BX5A's, but after reading the reviews and specs, I decided on the M1's due to their tweakability based on acoustic environment...
