best daw is the one you can turn your ideas into music that satisfies you, for my case, ableton

[MrProducer]

Best DAW is the one which one is easy for production for individuals

[samybmusic]

Reaper is one of the best daws out there not to mention you can do anything you want and customize it according to your workflow, plus it ain't super expensive like other daws.

[Veridi]

I'm going to test out Reaper because of its insane customizability.

[taylorbickford]

FL for production
Pro Tools for tracking/mixing/mastering

[markanderson]

I keep it old skool with the Grandaddy of DAW's Cubase Pro 12

[DJPastaYaY]

Ableton for me. But I would be willing to try FL too

[itstobitan]

Cubase? The OG? I know it’s not that big in the US, but it should… the depth of knowledge at Steinberg (manufacturer) is unprecedented.

[outuvoyager]

Easiest one to use is by far logic, clean interface, no need of external plugins and audio bank, ultra clean sound, but macs are... 💲💲

The best daw is the one that works best for you! Don't let anyone tell you one daw is better than the other! As long as you're having fun you're doing just fine

[tonystephengrayson]

I've only ever used Reason and still love it

[mrjohnwilkesbooth]

Being a Composer, i wouldn't use any other DAW other than Cubase. Tempo/Meter changes on the drop of a dime!

When it comes to recording & mixing, Cubase, Pro-Tools or Logic are the top 3.

When it comes to making beats, the majority are using FL Studio, MPC or Maschine.

Personally, it all depends on the person that is behind the DAW. Are they Composers/Producers or an Engineer - or a combination of the 3. But if you are a Real Musician, otw: Pianist/Guitarist or Drummer etc, I'd pick Cubase bc it is outstanding for Composers/Engineers - Hands Down!!

[maximustheproducer]

Logic is the best! I’ve used FL for about a decade and a half, but when I switched I never looked back.

[JonJon-bxww]

Don't sleep on S1. It has so many options, most users don't even know all the things you can do in there. It's like you took Pro Tools + Logic and I just love that!

[zsoltnagy]

Reaper has the best resource allocation

[iamfemo]

The answer depends on the person using it, the style of music you make and the degree of customisation you need

[snpai]

FL Studio is the best DAW there is. Many edm legends use it and its easier to understand.💯

[leap.]

learnt logic at school because its what we use and its become my favourite by far
never had to download any plugins or intsruments or sounds as all the stock ones are really professional

[zaykayzk]

If Ableton had the same drum mechanic as FL itd be the best

[RaymondSamuel-ky]

Ableton Live like its name says is killer for live situations. It seems to handle live playing better than some of my other daws which freeze up when overloaded. Plug everyone in it guitars and bass players and vocalists to process and use like a mixer.
