Do You Regret Upgrading To The Latest Version Of Your DAW?

Reaper: no regrets, 7 is great
Bitwig: no regrets, 5.2.3 is awesome
Logic: I just really, really wish I could refund or sell Logic. But no regrets with the current version over prior ones.

I haven't upgraded Cubase pro to 13 yet. Don't know if it's worth it or not. I'ts getting less and less new exciting things to upgrade for. I've never regretted an update so far though.

I use Cubase on Windows and have recently upgraded to Version 13. I do not regret updating - especially the features with the multi-window handling on Windows 11 are very nice (I only work on one monitor). Whether the new stock EQ plugins are worth it to you depends (I owned the UAD Native Pultec EQ Collection before so for me that was cool but more like a cool add-on than a necessary improvement).
Also, the new Start Mode can be a game changer workflow-wise.

I regret Studio One 6, version 5 did everything I needed already, just got caught up in the FOMO maybe. At the very least I should have waited for an upgrade sale. Live and learn!

With Live 12 and most DAWs it's yin and yang for me. Always. There's new useful stuff, improvements, but also increasing complexity, more features I don't need, and particularly in Live's case recently -- key command changes. They absolutely refuse to let users redefine/define these (despite a clever bu limited facility for adding them) and it's really starting to become an issue.
