These days when asked about DAW apps, or when thinking what I'll do when
upgrade becomes necessary, I look over at Reaper, which is already quite
powerful, well supported, and truly fairly priced. As with all of them,
it offers its own way of going about the work, and there will be new
stuff to learn.

ANd given that it was based-on/inspired-by Vegas,m has a relatively
straightforward easy workflow. I've always found the germanic-origin
applications very steep in the learning curve department.

The most obtuse and difficult DAW program I ever used was Emagic
Logic for the PC. Many years ago of course. I literally could not get
a squeak out of that one and actually had a student at the local
college help me set it up. What a bear albeit probably the most
powerful MIDI program at the time.

Regardless of platform back then, you could not do anything until you
had figured out the Environment. A few versions later, and after Apple
bought Emagic, it arrived with starter templates for a variety of
Environments, making gettin going a lot easier.

For a dumbass guitar player like me, that first encounter with Logic's
Environment was daunting.
