I think I've posted this same thought numerous times, but I just don't get the arguments that software elitists throw out there. The implication seems to be that most people using hardware don't have a clue that quality software exists. I don't think there are many producers or musicians on the planet who haven't considered the options or the many pros/cons of using software and, more importantly, in my observations there are hardly any hardware users who don't also use software to some extent.
IMO the software elitists are as bad, if not worse, than the hardware elitists - they're both seemingly on a mission to convince the world that their way is the right way, while the rest of us just use what we want and make do with the resources at our disposal, whether it's a minimal software setup, or a slutty as hell Deadmau5 wannabe studio. It's our money, it's our time, and it's our music and we should buy and use whatever the hell we want and use it in any way that we see fit. We all have different backgrounds, personalities, skill levels, income levels, expectations, priorities, musical styles, etc. and those all play a role in our buying decisions and workflow. Why is that so concept so hard for some people to grasp?
