About REAPER

REAPER is notable for its tiny install size — the whole application is a few tens of megabytes — while supporting professional track counts. Like all DAWs it is bound by CPU and audio interface latency, not graphics.

Can my laptop run REAPER?

The same check applies — enter the parts your laptop actually contains. Be aware that a laptop graphics chip is usually slower than the desktop card it shares a name with, because the manufacturer sets a lower power limit. A laptop advertising the Not required named here may therefore fall somewhat short of it in practice, and sustained performance drops further as the machine heats up. Treat a borderline laptop result as optimistic rather than assured.
