I am very curious in terms of mixing and building a track *not mastering* one, how many people use 2 or more DAWs? I'm curious if its a lot of people or if most just use 1 and whether or not you see that as people limiting themselves.
Thanks! |

Sometimes, I'll use Ableton Live rewired into Logic for audio editing source samples because editing audio is easier in Ableton than it is in Logic 8. Other than that, I just use Logic alone. |

so far ive been making all my tracks in Reason, but lately bought Logic Express and Ableton Live 7 LE and try to learn those. And will probably start rewiring when i have money to upgrade to Logic 9 and Ableton 8. Also bought Record recently and use that instead of Reason now. Much better interface and a little better mixer. Im looking for a good mp3 encoder btw for mac. I used to use lame.dll in Reaper before, now im using Logics bounce variant but not sure if thats as good as lame? I actualy have Reaper installed on this mac too, so i have in total 5 DAWS here all legal. lol no wonder i cant get anything done. |

my main DAW is cubase and sometimes I rewire reason for use Thor or a Combinator reason became another "VST synth" for me |

I used to use FL for everything but I've recently decided to use it just for making midis. Once I have the midis for all the parts I want, I arrange/mix in Ableton. |

I use Sonar for 90% of my work, but I started with Cubase and I stay current on it and use it occasionally. I bought Live 8 recently to use as a scratch pad for new ideas. I also use Project5, which I bought years ago when I was collaborating with others, but Live 8 has pretty much replaced it now. I bought FLS years ago with the intention of using it for programming drums, but never really used it. However, I have been using it lately rewired into Sonar so I can take advantage of Vocodex, but hopefully, IL will release a VST version of Vocodex soon so I won't have to deal with rewire. |

I "compose" in Logic but sometimes mix in PTHD does that count as two DAWS?
I turn to PT when there's a lot of messy editing, especially if I'm doing any remix work from live recordings or overdubs. |
