[RWP] A controversial topic, to upgrade or not to upgrade

[Tor Tollhag]

It depends on a bit what you want to do.
The rea access scripts haven't been updated since 2011, but work
fairly well even with the latest reaper version.
A few things are broken but there's some ways around that.
Also they fixed a bunch of stuff in reaper 4.
On this laptop I run the 64-bit version of the latest reaper, however
I also run the 32-bit version of reaper 3.78.
That way if something would be seriously broken I can go back to that.
As for soundforge I would love to test out the later versions of that,
but no idea how they work with screen readers. I don't have Soundforge
installed on anything now, but might try that out.
Not sure if I'll try a new version or stick with the very old soundforge 8.
But you should definetly try out the latest reaper. It works quite
good for me anyway.
