All excellent points Michael and I do include a tremendous amount of LE users in the "weekend warrior" category.
I do know quite a few players who have just moved out of every other system and moved into Pro Tools for everything.
With every new release of PT in the last two years more and more people I know are tired of the fight and they are just choosing one DAW.
I will buy the upgrade, (as I stated earlier) probably after AES.
I still have many pro clients that use it to compose with and I like to stay somewhat compatible with them.
Who knows where all this ends up. No one has crystal ball.
I certainly have major gripes about why it has taken Digi so long to come out with a robust MIDI environment.
But I would like to think the battle-lines have not changed that much.
It always seems to go back and forth.
You and I both know people who have looked at Logic and said it was far to complicated for them and they went Pro Tools because it was easier to navigate.
On Friday, MW e-mailed me to see if L8 "less complicated" now.
He said every time he thought about moving to Logic, it was too overwhelming to learn.
Maybe now with the Single-Window Design more people will jump in.
It's definitely more PT/Apple in that regard. More straight forward.
It's funny, I think the biggest loser in all of this is DP. Why on earth would anyone go with DP now?
