Not enough RAM dedicated to the program?

The REAPER forum is an excellent source of troubleshooting help:
https://forum.cockos.com/ Cut up a small portion of a track that has the noise so you can upload it. Get a screen shot of the waveform as well.
What is your sampling rate? How current are your drivers?

What I like about Reaper is that when you record in stereo you open and arm two tracks. However I haven't figured out if it is possible to auto-arm and pull up two channels simultaneously.

You can choose to open a stereo track rather than two mono tracks. If you want to pull up two tracks configured in specific way, first set up the tracks then save the project as a project template. You can then open that template to start a new session. You can make that the default template by renaming it.

In Audacity if I select stereo tracks as default I cannot figure out it if is possible edit L or R separately. When I click record with Audacity it will automatically start a new track and only mono or stereo as selected in preferences. As I said, simple but clumsy. There must be more to it to make Audacity a little more customized in the record mode and Reaper a little more simple in getting a recording going.

Audacity has tools to split a stereo track into two mono tracks:
