Wow... that's some heavy music/sounds you make.Daags wrote: Thu Feb 06, 2020 6:47 pm I use multiple DAWs because they have different strengths, and a chain is only as strong as its weakest link. So for each 'link' in my production 'chain', I use whatever DAW is best at that particular task.
the beauty of VST plugins is they work in whatever DAW is the 'link' I'm working on at any given time. All on the same computer, using wav & midi files. It's not like you have to lug 14 lbs of tape from the studio down stairs, up ten flights of stairs, convert it to a different tape format, then lug 23 lbs of the new tape format down 3 flights of stairs to the next studio to work in, and repeating this process everytime you want to take your project to another stage better suited in another 'studio'. So it is beyond me why neckbeards get their panties all twisted and bunched up their heinie just because someone might have some criticisms about their 'waifu' DAW, even when the criticisms are coming from people who own licenses to and financially support the waifu in question.
Funny thing is, some of the most ardent cry babies with the most amount of pantie wedged the deepest up their chair-shaped heinie ... appear to have a relatively plentiful supply of disposable cash to spend on their hobby. So it's not like they are under huge economic pressure to go 'all in' solely for their waifu, warts n all.
So who's with me ? .... Multiple-DAW gang check in.
Yup... use a few DAWs, playing to their strengths.
Also methodology/workflow... any one remember the 8 track format cassettes , they also made PRO 2 track versions (really expensive) but with a stack of them with cut loops, we had an analog kinda session thing going on, way before Live.. so I have live and Project 5 for that.. Acid>> 'coz it's fun
