Would anyone be willing to lay out their experiences with DAWs? Preferably free ones? I tried waveform, but I’m thinking I’m going to use Cakewalk. A lot of people say Reaper, but the UI seems lackluster. What do yo think?

    Bitwig Studio! Made from former Ableton devs so it’s similar but the workflow is amazing for modulation and sound design. Plus Linux support. Not free but you can rent-to-own via splice (you do not need an active splice sounds sub).

    Edit: oh and it can also sandbox your plugins (either individually, by company, or all together) so having a vst crash doesn’t bring down your whole project.

        That’s a good question but not one I can adequately answer. I’m currently mostly using a low-end setup so I’m just sandbox inf my plugins as one.
