View this Thread in Original format

Hi,

Long time trance lover and wanting to try making my own. I have a new Mac Mini with 8GB Ram and an SSD Hard Drive which i presume will be fine to start with. My question is..

What DAW is good to start with thats easy to learn? I know they are all as good as each other so not looking for a war on which is best, just advice on which people found easy to learn on. I have the budget to buy any of them including Logic Pro X, Cubase 7.5, Ableton Live 9, Bitwig etc etc

I was thinking of buying Logic Pro X as its Apple and i do like their software but read on a few posts on the internet that its hard to learn and restricted.

Thanks

Matt

They're all as hard and/or easy to learn as each other.

Logic is by far the cheapest so you might as well go for that. What you've read about it on the intarwebz is just bull.

Hi,

Ok thanks for the reply. Looks like Logic Pro X is the one to go for then

Logic doesn't have a 30 day trial. Cubase 7.5 doesn't either as you need the e licenceer

Don't write off Reaper because its only $60, its a fully functioning DAW and then some. It is no harder to learn then any of the DAWs you listed. You could use the money you saved buying Reaper on some killer plugins.

In all honesty I think FL studio is the easiest DAW to learn the basics in but its not fully supported on OSX.

Reaper is not at all easy to learn

I found doing things like sidechaining was much easier than other DAWs in Reaper and every other task was pretty much the same. Then again I've only used fl, live and logic.

i think most daws have a learning curve to them but if i owned a mac and had the money like the op has then logic is the way to go

I have the reason demo and its fun for trying something different if your use to another DAW. I can see myself making a track in it.
