I've going back and forth about which software I should use for production. I currently have Reason 4.0 but Reason does not like any VST plug ins period only things like "Refills" So I am in market to get either Pro Tools or Ableton Live. My question is that does Pro Tools can enable various of VST Plug ins?
Thanks aheads |

protools does not support VST protocol but the RTAS one, but you can use the ''wrapper FXPANSION VST TO RTAS''
this program converts your VST plug-in to RTAS protocol
but i'm not sure at all, i don't use Protools or any other host with RTAS
EDIT: i find this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WsGoapdOlck |

I've just bought Cubase 5, and I'm lovin it. I've been stuck with the SX 3 version for quite some time. I'm really happy with the upgrade and I strongly recommend it! LOVE all the new functions/effects/synths etc. |

Dude, not to be rude, but if you don't know that protools doesn't use VSTs, then I feel it's a sign that you need to do more research before spending a money on a sequencer, especially as pro tools works out rather expensive for even a basic setup.
If you're running a macbook, then go for logic pro. Ableton is fine too and so is cubase but having used all of them I'm most happy with Logic Pro - it comes with great synths and fx, and 8 is the best version of it yet - it just works so well.
Now, granted it does have a steeper learning curve that fruity loops, and maybe a tiny bit more than cubase (but that's highly debatable) but once you get in to it nothing else compares IMHO.
You can also pick up logic express for $199 or studio (all bells and whistles) for $499 - real bargains for what you get. |

astonishing program given how it is made by one guy and if you really want to be a greedy prick, free
Makes you wonder why all the other programs are not light years ahead of what reaper does. |

Your best bet is either Logic or Cubase.
Ableton has a very different interface and workflow (In a bad way if you ask me) and ProTools just sucks for EDM. |

while reaper is really good i miss better included instruments and samples. u must have alot of vsts and samples yourself but i like daws that has alot to begin with. reaper seems to be perfect for recording etc though. |
