[RWP] Introduction and question

[Simon Jaeger, Laptop Edition]

I can access most parameters through reaper, but I do agree that the meters 
need to be addressed, that's one important thing I'd love to see. Honestly 
beyond that, I could use reaper for some pretty professional stuff and not 
have too much of a problem with it. It honestly seems to be a lot moer 
intuitive than sonar (I always hated having to press s twice to turn solo 
off, for instance, or waiting that extra quarter of a second when moving to 
a new track). It just seems so much more light weight, and easy to use. As 
with you, I'm not downing sonar, it can do some really amazing stuff. But 
I've found some things to be easier in reaper.
