![]() just never really feel like i have the time. i might consider cubase again at some point (tried it 10 and 15 years ago and hated it) - seems quite different now. I've used a few different sequencers along the way (remember 'master trax pro'?!), considered the move to logic several times, but it's never felt like the right time schedule-wsie. dragging/option dragging is so quick in that window - then i port over to sibelius. while Quickscribe is long overdue for some updates, it is actually very quick to orchestrate in there (or get your orchestration started). PT is better with audio and it makes delivery very easy - it is just industry standard.ĭP8 is a great improvement - it still isn't the most efficient in terms of computer resources, but there are some features like nested folders that are just indispensable, especially when working with a very large midi template. for audio i use Protools and VEP hosting in PT for VIs. for years i used it for audio, essentially everything, but nowadays i use it for composing and programming. i got on board DP at V2 - had the original 2408 when it came out as well. I stared on performer ver 1 (i think it was actually called 'professional performer' and i also started with their 'professional composer' v1 notation program, remember that one?!). I enjoy working with the ones I named at one time or another.Īnyway, just curious who my fellow DP users are. I realized after talking to some younger composer friends who use Logic (who also kinda trip when they realize I'm using DP, even for pop music), that DP was "forced on them" in school so it probably feels like their father's DAW! Apple's resurgence and buying up Logic probably helped that too. Cubase being right there too probably (although it's a bit foreign to me). May not win a beauty contest but it's design is clean and it's a deep program that's easy to get around in. They need to adopt VST3 and probably update Quickscribe and add a feature here and there, but personally I think all around it's the most capable DAW out there still. Last year, as DP8 was coming out I re-evaluated my choice of DAWs, but really liked the way MOTU did DP8, and decided to stay put. I think Cubase is nice and I see why a lot of people would use it for film and orchestral (especially being cross-platform and working well with VEPro). I use Logic 9 as a 2nd DAW for certain things. I've worked with ProTools a lot at bigger studios (exchanging files has always been interesting to say the least). 4 tracks of audio! I did a whole album that way! Bouncing tracks like crazy. It was a tough call but at that time DP had the slight edge in audio editing. I tried Vision, Cubase, Logic and DP (the MIDI versions, then the first generation DAWs). Personally I've been using DP since 1.7 (1993!!). So, who's using DP? How long? Did you ever switch and come back? Do you use two DAWs?
