Thread Starter | what do you use for film/video/tv scoring on PC (not pro-tools)?
What DAW do you use for film/video/tv scoring on the PC? Samplitude + Vegas a good combo? Sonar not that great 'cause of no sync to SMPTE? Nuendo? Which PC DAW or combo of programs is best for composing music for video/tv/film? Anything able to compete with Digital Performer on the MAC? |

Well, diferent horses for different courses...everybody will have his/her own preference. Mine is Nuendo. Use it for scoring to picture, and editing/desigining soundeffects as well as mixing. It is the most complete in-the-box solution I've worked with so far. I come from Logic on the Mac (used it until verison 6 in combination with TDM hardware) and run Nuendo on a dual opteron system. Apart from a few plugins/synths there is nothing I miss. Audio editing is fantastic, VSTi support is good, and there isn't anything major that Nuendo isn't doing for me at the moment. I can highly recommend it. If you're not bothered about more than 5.1 surround support you might as well go with Cubase, which pretty much has the same featureset. I've heard great things about samplitude but afaik it is more for sound editing and not so much music making, eventhough it supports midi. Vegas is audio only. Cheers, Joris |

I use Logic Pro (on a Mac). Just finished a large project for Welltec. Beats the shit outta PoorTools.
