My first DAW was a Tascam portastudio in 1989
I upgraded to a Boss BR-8 when it first came out (late 90s? 2000?)
Then I got into n-Track (because it was free) and Fruity Loops, which at the time was just a step sequencer, as I recall.
After a long period of not recording anything / having a family, I got Logic. I chose it because I used a Mac, and itâs a tremendous value. If you already own a Mac, Logic a no-brainer.
Also, because of my cassette tape multi-track background, I never connected with Abletonâs vertical session view. I think Logicâs implementation of Live Loops is better, but Iâm still a multi-tracker, not a looper.
