I went from Pro-Tools to Reaper and recently moved on from Reaper. I pretty much tried every DAW out there and in the end, I settled for Presonus Studio One. Awesome DAW.
Defo good to know Pro-Tools, even if you don't work with professional studios, you never know when you might find yourself in one or in a situation in which you're expected to know Pro-Tools.
Personally, I can't use it for my own stuff at home, it's just too bloated, demanding and restricting for my liking.
I'd try to solve the issue of Cubase and go on with it.
I've been using Cubase since VST32 5.0 (2001) version, and hardly ever crashed.
if you've spent considerable time with cubase why switch now?
Still looking forward to the day Studio One becomes a full-fledged DAW. My early experiences with it were very promising, but it lacked too many features at the time to be usable on its own. Besides that, it's owned by Presonus, which probably don't rank too far above Steinberg on my list of 'generally not cared for' companies.
Because Steinberg are a bunch of retards and it lacks tab to transient, print-to-track, and any kind of decent workflow for AutoTune or VocAlign?
As much as I want to defend Cubase and as much as I depend on its drum maps for my programming, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't slowly switching over to PT.
I'm interested to know how latencies are working in differents DAW with a similar project. Drew drummer for example tell us he is getting low latencies on the latest version of Pro tools with a Profire 2626.
Oh, without being a complete fanboi about it, the Presonus Studio One dev team seem very approachable - more so than Steinberg!! I give S1 a hearty recommendation.
