[Rwp] a fun Reaper crashing experience

[Scott Chesworth]

In 7 years of using Reaper most days in some form, I can only think of
4 episodes here where a project has had to be rebuilt or Reaper has
consistently crapped the bed in an unexpected way. There are more
advanced users out there than me, but tbh I'd say that's not bad going
for any DAW.
