My synth is a Roland JP8000. Its analog modeling engine makes waveforms I've never seen anywhere else. The Super Saw is 7 saw waves detuned against each other. And the feedback oscillator capable of some fairly monstrous sounds. It also has the standard wave shapes and noise. Fun machine. Its best friend is a 1960s Wurlitzer electronic piano that it sits atop most of the time. Reason is pretty much everything in one place. Besides having a nice pile of virtual instruments and a mountain of effects, you can also record audio from an outside source. That of course can run through any of the internal effects in real time. I find it visually intuitive and user friendly. The downside at this point with Reason is its price. I've been on it since version 1 though. I'm not familiar with Reaper. Woodworking I do with a mix of hand and power tools. I've had a few years to accumulate tools and toys. I try not to let any of them get too lonely.
