If you're talking about getting the job done, most DAWs from the past five to ten years are more than adequate with no upgrades at all. Ten years ago, each iteration of technology made a huge difference but we're well past that point. |
It was costing my mentor $6K per year for his maintenance contract on his AVID system. I would say that is expensive since you pay $0K per year for FCP maintenance. Maybe that is not what you meant.
