I don’t think there’s a way to do a proper poll so if you don’t see your DAW mentioned in a top level comment, make the comment to the post. If it’s already listed, maybe just upvote it? That way we can get a representation of what DAWs are more among subscribers here.
I’m curious just because it’s always neat to hear what people use and how, but also to see how possible tuts or techniques can be explained in a way more people will understand. Or provide a variety of examples for various DAWs.
EDIT: Actually, I don’t know the best way to list the ones I use without making a few comments to this post. I’ll just upvote them if I see them listed.
Reaper! I love it and would (probably) never switch.
Top choice IMO. Runs beautifully everywhere, and more features just keep on coming…
I tried reaper years ago when it was still in its infancy. Maybe I need to try it again.
I’d recommend giving it a spin for sure. They’ve been consistently adding features that make different things easier to do. It’s crazy flexible and if there’s a setup you want, someone has probably made it work before. And it’s free to try, with an installation that takes like five seconds.
I got started with some YT tuts on getting it setup and have been running it for the past day. I’m starting by cloning my main Pro Tools template into Reaper and so far… holy shit.
I can honestly say that I’ve slept on this DAW and understand why it has the following and support it does. I can make it my DAW. I have the chance to work on a new project with it today so let’s see how that goes.
Awesome! Make sure to spread the gospel of Reaper. If you’re looking for more tutorials, Kenny Gioia is a master and has done videos on almost everything there is involving Reaper. There’s also the Let’s Talk About Reaper channel which is pretty good for more specific things.
