Both cars get you there, but you can park a beetle anywhere without worrying whether it will be nicked while you are gone.

But I go to bed still a committed Tracktion user, secure in my knowledge that I can subtly speed up my choruses if I need to.
Goodnight all..
I think who is looking for a really informative comparison chart can gain quite a lot from our little 'fight'
Good night!

Damn, I missed the fight...
Not much of one, since even though Jens likes to shake us up a bit, it seems that Tracktion users and eXT users have a mutual respect for one another.
Or at least, we admire the respective coders enough to not want to say anything TOO nasty.
I was a bit confused, though-- Jens, did you mention eXT has automatic beatslicing and so forth? Now, I know I'm not the brightest bulb ever, but nor am I a complete dimit, and it took 2 of you and a multi-page thread to show me how to use eXT's beatslicer to do what I needed it to do.
And to me, that's why Tracktion's my lifemate while eXT is just my occasional fun bit of 'action on the side'. I love Tracktion and she gives me everything I need and want in a DAW.
eXT... she's so complicated. She makes me play headgames just to have a little bit of fun with her.
But fun she is, indeed. I just wouldn't want to have to go through the trouble of playing those games with her every day.
(er... not that I'm advocating cheating on a REAL life partner...)

See? I told youj_T wrote:You will read a lot of positive comments on Tracktion on KVR. [...] No surprise thus that it has a very active and supporting user base.
So your leaning towards Tracktion? I don't think you'll regret it

PS: BTW, before you make your final decision you should take a look at another three programs ... and, maybe, start a thread like "Fruity Loops vs. Reason vs. ORION" It's fun

You call Cubase the cake? I call it the kack.
People with sense know that if you have to choose a meal, you choose one for sustenance, not for the way it's decorated.

Besides, I prefer the term, "financially challenged".

cubase is for the music toffs that like to get half way through a tune then loose the hole thing in a crash
Sonar is nice but cpu hungry & midi timing not so solid
Tracktion is for the man who knows what he wants from life
