@duc I'm not actually using daws very much as my tracker does a great job of mixing all by itself (at least, my mixing skills aren't really good enough for a daw to exceed that, i know there's a lot that could be done to better mix my music). I'm also in the midst of setting up my music studio so i haven't completely gotten settled.
but my current daw of choice when I'm actually using it is Bitwig, because of its native Linux and pipewire support. A second choice is Ableton since that's just what I've used for a long while. I might have gotten into FL Studio, except i just never gave it a try.
@duc i do really wish that there was an open source daw i could use, but all the ones I've tried were just not usable. I'm not sure how people use ardour as it was crashing for me constantly and it also looks really really ugly
@vv ah i see! cause i mainly have been recording acoustic + vocals, and i've used reaper, which makes recording (and honestly most things) straightforward. but i might want to try expanding with other instruments in the future, and it's not been easy trying to get soundfonts and such working with it. :/
@duc i really love bitwig though. It does so much stuff right in terms of configuration, and it's quite intuitive, with only a few minor confusion points (but all daws i know have those). by far the best daw experience I've had, and the cheapest of the ones I've bought.
@vv oh dear. seems like the linux daw scene is in great shape. :) especially with a bunch of plugins being windows exclusive, so one has to fuck with that, too.
