Bitwig alone would be enough, add Reaktor and more than you would ever need is covered.
In case its the other way around, just Max/MSP was what I used exclusively for more than a decade, but sequencing was not covered well...

ableton live 10 suite, but that is cheating.

let's say maschine + reaktor (already some cheating..)
or
cubase pro + FM8 (less cheating)
or.. reaper + ... then i must choose MSoundFactory (more cheating..)

Ableton Live 10 Suite + DUNE 3

Reaper and no extra synth, ReaSynth is already included. :hyper:

No, but Live 10 Suite and VPS Avenger would go a long way.

Agreed, as standalone Reason 11 Suite is my top choice. None of the other DAWs have anything that compares in terms of stock instruments/effects.

I prefer using rack extensions only in Reason, so Nostromo maybe as my choice of extra synth. Otherwise Avenger, since I have 30 expansions for it :)

A more interesting question would be if all DAWs were stripped of their (easily replaced by third party) plug ins, which DAW would you choose? Logic, Reason and Live Suite beat the snot out of every other DAW in the included instruments war. IMO it's hard not to choose Logic or Reason or Live, although I think Reaper, Bitwig and Digital Performer are better sequencers and recording environments.

Logic plus Sylenth.

Or Live plus Omnisphere.

Did you know that since 3.2 beta 3 Bitwig receives CC from VST3? :)

Edit: since Zebrify comes with Zebra² I could go in cheat mode and have a great multi fx tool too. :love:

Doing nothing is only fun when you have something you are supposed to do.

Mmmm you mean that I could "steal" lfo from some synth and modulate some built in tool parameters with it? Reason style?
