I have been doing my homework on PT, Cubase, Nuendo, the Tascan SX-1,
but want to know if anyone out there has any particular advice to pick
one over the other, or to stay away from one or the other.


I primarily am going to use this to record myself and local
artists/small bands. The style of music will probably be guitar
based.


Anything you get now will be obsolete before it's unpacked. Get used to
it.

The thing you want is a stable system that runs reliably. That you can
switch on and it "just works," with little muss nor fuss.

Are you planning on building a room in your basement, or are you
planning on doing "live remote" recording?

In "live remote," how much space you have is a serious issue. So is
whether or not you'll be out with the beer and smokes.

A fixed-function hard-disk recorder might be the "right solution" for
you.

A better HD recorder with a small mixer might also be the "right
solution"

Tape might also be the "right solution."

Where are you gonna be recording? Are you willing to fuss with things,
or are you looking for a turnkey solution?
