And what is this amazing DAW?




I'll take a WAG and say Tracktion 3. I bought on Scott's recommendatio when it was dirt cheap and messed with it for a few hours but I didn't care for it. I haven't installed it on the new puter. It just wasn't intuitive.

But of course I was used to Cakewalk Home Studio 2004 and Sonar 4 PE. Totally different interface. They're also more intuitive for me.

But to each his own.




That's what is so interesting. Since I don't use a mixer for home recording - having to have a mixer on the screen is not a priority for me, but for most - not having it is a non-starter. The mastering plugin, FinalMix that came with that version of Tracktion is worth quite alot more than what was paid for the whole kit-n-kaboodle. I realize that Tracktion's non-standard layout and mental model just doesn't work for most people. If it did resonate with more users, it wouldn't be basically abandonware. To each his own is very true.

Richard, if you need to do voice-over editing or long speech editing, Tracktion simply rocks at this. I could walk you through the process in 5 minutes max. Even version 1 had auto-cross-fading, IIRC. I seem to remember that you bought in the $19 deal as well.
