I've had the Apollo for a few years now with Luna but I have never used either. Do you think that UA are still working out any bugs or is it pretty smooth? It's just me doing one instrument at a time with minimal plugins (when I don't overthink shit) but sometimes you just need to layer 9 guitars and put a birthday cake of effects on each of them.

Why is a problem a DAW doesn`t come with a lot of plugins? there are a lot of FREE plugins out there, is compatibility an issue with some of these DAWs? . How many tracks can Pro tools free and Garage Band use? Any other functionality of DAWS to consider as criteria? Can all of them use Bus channels for example? Thanks

@@nickiden Absolutely, default Reaper theme is a no-go, like most default things in Reaper. I am sure someone will come up with Luna skin rather soon though. But you can't beat Reaper feature wise. I recently had to compare Reaper vs Ableton for EDM production (time-line based, not live clips) and to my surprise with the same money spent on Reaper and relevant plugins it surpasses Ableton in absolutely any aspect by far. The biggest problem though would be to spend a week googling foruming all the quadzillions Reaper features, addons and scripts....

Great overview! I've been playing around with Luna a bit lately. Still figuring out where and how to do a lot of things that are second nature for me in Studio One. I agree that the screen is a bit crowded (especially on my 16" MacBook Pro screen), but there's a lot that I really like about it. I like that it has a feel of good old traditional recording and it hasn't crashed on me once. There are still a few quirky things, but they keep releasing updates that make it more and more usable - Bounce/Render audio most recently. As far as the expense of the plugins, Spark is a great option if you catch it on sale. That's come a long way as well. I've been picking up their native plugins here and there as they are on sale which makes them very affordable (and no WUP like Waves).

For creating voiceover samples and for recording virtual sessions via Source Connect, are your DAW recs the same? I would seldom need more than 3-4 tracks so track count isn't an issue, just compatibility with SC and with the engineers on the other end. I know they don't take G-band seriously from a previous virtual session I had. Thanks!

I've been trying to find a video like this one and its been really hard because the youtube search would only bring up advertisement videos from software companies promoting their own solution. I'm glad KZbin now randomly suggested this video to me. A bit sad that Cakewalk isn't available anymore and was replaced with BandLab, which is also free but not comprimise-free. I'll still test it out. But I hadn't heard about SoundBridge and Waveform before, will give it a look!
