I own two propellerhead software products and while I am excited about their new DAW they still have to prove themselves beyond anyone else that they can build a stable software. I have yet to see software more buggy than propellerhead's.
Funny comment from someone claiming to be in the "bizz" for 20 years. Especially since your judgement comes from a teaser. You must be every company's dream client. |
Its not being mad but more frustrated that with most of us, it seems we easily forget where affordable recording was just 15 years ago compared to what is available today.
We forgot how you use to need to lay a sync tone to 1 of your 4 tracks on your Tascam porta studio, just to sync your midi gear to 3 very hissy cassette tape tracks (Chrome anyone?)
We forgot how expensive it was to buy a CD burner and when paying $5000 for a Marantz made you one of the lucky ones.
We forgot how hard it was to get your band exposure or for your songs to get heard by the public.
We forgot when it was IMPOSSIBLE to get the big studio sound in your home studio no matter how much you spent on plug-ins and sound cards.
Unlimited tracks, SSL 9000k modeled mixer (with master buss), Reason Racks embedded, Multi track stem outputs, Easy GUI...
I mean WTF, in 1999 it would have cost you over $2,000,000 to have hardware to deliver this, now its only $299!!!!!!!!!
Every VST setup like this with midi/recording has all been buggy (and if you say Logic, no one has time to become a rocket scientist). Protools with midi instruments is also shoddy. Because PH Reason has always proven to me to be the most solid piece of creative software and best on CPU efficiency, yes I can only believe this same expertise in application design has carried over to their DAW.
If you ever worked your ass off on a minimum wage job just to buy components for a porta studio based setup, you will understand to have guys debating over overly powered tools to just make a song is just warped to me at times.
