I was thinking about this from something I saw in another forum thread.

How many DAW's have you had since you started in digital music?

I think I'm on DAW #4.

1. Windows 95 computer running a version of Cakewalk Pro 8 deluxe. This machine is no longer running.

2. Laptop dedicated to music with Windows ME. This computer is still operational and I use it in my studio for other things besides recording. It still has a number of project files on it.

3. A custom machine that I built from parts. This is an Intel i5 processor running Windows 7 Pro 32. I used this one for a very long time. It still runs and I keep it in the studio mainly because it contains the original files for a bunch of the music I have recorded over the past decade. I built it in 2008 if I recall correctly.

4. A rehabbed computer running Windows 10 64 bit. This is my current machine and runs everything now. I had to do a lot of work and upgrading and updating of my base programs to get back to functionality.

How about you? How many computers have you burned through pursuing this musical addiction?

Add nothing that adds nothing to the music.
You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both.

The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.
