A year ago I started using Reaper out of interest. In many ways it is way less refined than DP, but there were a few things that sped up my process so much, that I ended up switching over. The last version of DP that I have bought was 9. I tried version 10 but I still preferred some things in Reaper. I thought I'd share the main things that make me continue down that path.
Sub-Projects - a huge time saver scoring for film
Shortcuts and macros and templates of all sorts - another time warping thing
Folders being stems - I can't live without them!

Rendering options
Console 1 integration - fantastic
Melodyne ARA - also a great step up in workflow
There are many many others. But theses are the ones that come to mind.
I am so grateful to DP, MOTU and You guys for years of community life that was quintessential to me.
I consider You like a family. I will probably be a lot less here then elsewhere but I will be checking on the progress DP makes in those areas. I am more then happy to jump right back in.
Big hugs!
