Also a reason fan, havent tried record though. And was thinking of trying Logic, especially with the 200 price tag.
I LOVED Reason when I first learned DAWs. I'm sure that others will disagree, but it seems really clunky since they integrated audio a few years ago. Editing midi and Audio with all of the blocks is.... well, clunky. Perhaps I need to spend more time with it.

Live does everything I want, so I'm not encouraged to go back.

The only downside to Ableton Live is quick editing on audio loops. There are workarounds, but removing a quick click or pop in 10 seconds would be nice. I'm sure that's coming in the next version. I can easily imagine never using another DAW after that.

Recording strictly to tape is bad ass! I use tape as part of my effects chain, but have not attempted to use my tape machine alone since the PortaStudio days!
