|
 |
What is the best and most complete Digital Audio Workstation.
I currently have FL Studio 9, Reason 4, Cubase 5, Nuendo 4, Ableton 8 and Cakewalk Sonar 8.
Opinions please.
Plus if there is some other software that I should be aware of, please let me know.

huh? none of them is "complete", reason and fruity loops being the only "all in one" solutions, but you'll want to expand them sooner or later.
basically, what you need is a sequencer and VSTs. for example, use cubase and plug various synths and/or samplers
from the stuff you've listed:
- Cubase 5, Nuendo 4, Ableton 8 and Cakewalk Sonar 8 are only sequencers, but apart from some included sounds you won't get very far with them alone. WHICH of them is the best? no one can tell you. i'd say it's a matter of taste. ableton live is nice and easy to use, and you'll probably find the most tutorials for cubase
- FL Studio 9 is a nice "all in one" beginner app, but that's it
- Reason 4: cheap and powerful, plus i love the interface.
i'd suggest you start off with reason, play around there. if you like it, stick with it. if you don't or need more stuff, move on to some more advanced sequencer.
when it comes to VSTs: native instruments <3
if you have more questions, just ask away
oh and if you haven't already, it may be a good idea to invest into some hardware. music production isn't much fun without a decent sound card and a master keyboard
