REAPER is a digital audio workstation (DAW) and multitrack audio/MIDI recorder for macOS, Windows and Linux. It is used by music producers, sound engineers, podcasters, and composers for recording, editing, mixing and mastering audio and MIDI. The app offers powerful editing tools, unlimited audio and MIDI tracks, built-in effects and plugins, ReaPack for third-party extensions, and a generous 60-day fully functional trial period before requiring a license (affordable for personal and professional use). A native Apple Silicon build has been confirmed running on Macs in the Rosetta Check community.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionREAPER ships a native Universal Binary that runs natively on Apple Silicon Macs, and the official download page at reaper.fm automatically serves the correct version for your architecture. Simply visit reaper.fm/download, download the current macOS Universal installer, and run it — it will replace your Intel build with the native version and preserve all your existing projects, settings, plugins and configurations. After installation completes, open REAPER normally and verify it launches in native mode (no Rosetta). If you have older third-party plugins that are Intel-only and you want to keep using them, REAPER can run in Rosetta mode on demand to maintain compatibility, but the default native build will give you noticeably faster performance and better battery life on M-series Macs.
