What DAW Do You Hate?

jack.

keeps shitting on my window.

he's saucy that way

I don't understand how anyone could find the energy to hate a piece of software...

Well some Reaper fans can get a bit annoying, since they take every opportunity to go on about how awesome Reaper is... Nothing against that DAW, though.

E.g. someone posts asking for help because their mix sounds muddy... First reply:
"You need to cut the lows and remove a few elements to clean up the mix. BTW, I saw you're using Ableton Live. You should try Reaper!".

Or someone posts in the Off Topic forum asking for travel advice -
"You should visit Spain! BTW, have you tried Reaper?"

I think this is why a lot of people clicked "hate" here for Reaper. It's not the program itself, which granted looks like some Windows 95 shareware, but the Reaper Army that appear everywhere and try to convert you to their cult. They even insist on writing "REAPER" as if it is GOD. Not my thing...
DAWs are just tools. No need to get religious about it.

P.S.: You should try VIM!

i totally get where youre coming from.
i imagine they stop strangers on the street "can i interest you in a word about reaper?"
theyre everywhere


btw, have you tried reaper?

Quite the reverse here - just the same handful of easily identifiable clowns who just hate on Reaper and going on about those elusive 'ravenous reaper fannies'. And its those clowns themselves who get mighty defensive of their preferred DAW when compared with anything else.

Life tip 101.1 - Use what you enjoy until you no longer enjoy it, then do what you can to help or simply move on. If you need internet forums to endorse your preference and ego, you're doing it wrong.

I hated having to try and learn the Pascal programming language back in 2005 as it was included in the first year of a Uni course I did, fortunately they allowed me to drop it and do something else without affecting my additional years I did.

As for the poll, the last option shouldn't have been included, that just provides a reason to cop out of deciding and thus the poll is pretty much inconclusive.

Exactly. How dare someone like something

If it hadn't been included, those voices (including mine) simply weren't cast and wouldn't change the hate levels on each DAW at all.

I'm not pretending i dont know the feeling of hate, but certainly not for something as mundane as DAW, OS, phone, or socks unless one company is known for torturing their workers more than others or something like that.

But it permits the act of participating without actually committing, those who don't vote don't matter. It's like Brexit, you either vote to stay part of Europe or you don't...

yeah, and look at the shit storm that's caused

[donkey tugger]

I was told if I voted for Reaper I'd be given £350 million a week..

[BLMastering]

Why the need for hate?

alright MuLab is the last one with no Votes.
By acclimation MuLab is therefore officially deemed, “Best Daw”

Don't be so positive, it's really just that nobody uses it.
