I put quite a lot of work into learning Ableton Live some years ago. Logic too has been a DAW I’ve used regularly and still have installed on my studio machine, though I have to say I’ve never enjoyed it. I never got very comfortable on it but I did some meaningful work on it all the way to Cubase SX. My first DAW was Cubase, back in the 90s. I’ll be the first to admit that when I see cool features of other DAWs it fires my curiosity.
But I can say that I don’t share that position. Looking more closely at that reasoning that ‘best DAW’ might change depending on what you are doing, not all work is the same and while I don’t believe there is such a thing as a bad DAW, certainly among the major players, different DAWs have different strengths.įor example many people use one DAW for writing and another for mixing, we published an article to this effect recently in which Russ explained why he uses two DAWs and I can’t disagree with his position. Our advice on choosing a DAW has been consistent for a long time, the best DAW is the one which works for you. But a user who is heavily invested in a single DAW might well feel that the benefits of staying in a single DAW outweigh the advantages a new DAW’s feature set might bring. They each have their respective strengths after all. Some people happily use more than one DAW.
