Would anyone be willing to lay out their experiences with DAWs? Preferably free ones? I tried waveform, but I’m thinking I’m going to use Cakewalk. A lot of people say Reaper, but the UI seems lackluster. What do yo think?

    What sort of issues? Back in like 2004-2005 me and my buddy would use ProTracks, which is the same software I believe. It was pretty solid back then.

      I used Cakewalk Producer? back up to the mid 2010s. About that time, they made it free and I tried installing and using the free stuff. I had a really solid setup which had worked really well with the older Cakewalk stuff. I just kept getting crashes. It was interrupting my workflow. I basically gave up on the whole thing and music production in general. Sad in retrospect
