- Easy to use basic Synth, with of course some presets in it...
- better visuals.
- Some daws, like bitwig, includes easy swing function.

So...out of the box, you can compose and create easely.
When I switched to reaper, I did explicitly not want to work "out of the box" , as the box was already there. And it was my private box , not the box of any daw supplier.
I already had the drum samplers , the basic samplers , the basic synths with my presets on it, and if I wanted swing, I used my mpc.

So it was the usp of reaper to be open to support my(!) box, as is, so I could continue compose and create easely.

No bloatware, no reaper hub failing to connect to a server, no proprietary "standards" nothing like that.

And this is the essence of reaper. And this must remain. It is more important than new features.
