REAPER是一个多轨音频/MIDI音序器，但由于其便宜的价格，出色的性能，完整的功能，娇小的身材，立刻被广大平民音乐人所推崇。REAPTER是Rapid Environment for Audio Prototyping and Efficient Recording的缩写，也就是音频原型与高性能录音的快速环境。
据说REAPER的核心开发人员是从前Winamp公司跳槽出来的，可见水平还是很有保证的。
REAPER是一款工作站级别的专业音乐制作软件，包含多轨录音、音频混缩、MIDI编辑与母带处理等多项功能。软件采用64位音频引擎，支持目前流行的各类DX、VST音频插件与软音源，并自带多个品质出色的音频效果器。
正常运行REAPER，对计算机软硬件的要求很低。但是为了最大限度的发挥其功能，并提高工作效率，我们推荐采用如下配置：多核处理器，Windows 2000/XP/Vista，1G内存，至少1G的空闲磁盘空间，1280×1024显示分辨率，24位真彩色，支持ASIO音频驱动的专业音频卡或音频 接口。

REAPER is digital audio workstation software: a complete multitrack audio and MIDI recording, editing, processing, mixing, and mastering environment. REAPER updates are evolutionary, not revolutionary. REAPER 4 is not a radically new experience from REAPER 3, but adds a number of useful new features, ease of use improvements, and even more of that legendary REAPER customizability.
REAPER works with almost any hardware and can be used in combination with a vast universe of other software and plug-ins.
Take advantage of REAPER’s full functionality using only your current computer and a microphone, or use REAPER to drive an entire professional recording studio.
• Record audio and MIDI from multiple inputs simultaneously
• Layer recorded tracks and takes over previous recordings
• Edit recordings in almost any imaginable way
