BEST software for recording? (Logic vs Pro Tools vs Ableton)

[@lrios0086]

You know whats crazy? 1 minute in I forgot that i was looking for comparisons of DAWs and i sitting here waiting for this fool to just start drumming.... lol

[@TimBuell]

Not in this video! Haha

[@IndyRockStar]

I had Pro Tools subscription for a year. I still don't know how to use it very well. I just got Logic, and I was immediately able to get started. I'm no expert, but this has been my experience so far.

[@iengineer_247]

You are a Pro!!!! You're sharing light on how to choose based upon work flow!!!

[@TimBuell]

I appreciate it - glad it helped!

[@JorgeCidMusic]

If you own a Perpetual License for Pro Tools you don't have to pay a Subscription Plan., you just pay for the updates for one year and you could use that version for years until you need a new update.

[@TimBuell]

This is worth looking into for sure. Should’ve mentioned that

[@aakarshandutta8511]

I think perpetual licence is not available now. Last I checked I couldn't find that on Avid's website.

[@MuratEltanOfficial]

@@aakarshandutta8511 just google protools studio perpetual. İts on 3rd party music store resellers. İts Brand new license.

[@purenonsense7296]

Nice vid. I’m a Reaper weirdo. It’s great now since it’s very customizable and it is now set up just as I want it. Also, I already have all the VSTI’s and other plugins I want. Steep learning curve. I always recommend Logic for anyone new to DAWs with a Mac. Like you said it’s simple and comes with a bunch of great VSTI’s and other plugins.

[@TimBuell]

Agreed! I still want to try Reaper just to see what’s what. I also want to get familiar with Audacity since it is so popular

[@sanctipaprichio]

reaper is amazing, but not out of the box, you need to spend time to figure out your workflow

[@MattTravelling]

Thank you for this detailed breakdown! As a software engineer I can appreciate your ratings approach and it makes sense, especially with the color that you added to this video to explain each one. I’m a hobbyist though, definitely not a pro and never plan to be, so Avid looks like the winner for me, simply for recording and mixing. Thank you!

[@TimBuell]

Glad it was helpful! I did one of these several years ago and realized that I need to have some kinda of category/ranking system to make it a bit more applicable for people's different needs.

[@skk6811]

You're so spot on about the workflow thing and how dependent it is on what you're using it for. I usually compose / sound design / arrange everything in Ableton Live, just because it's built for a ridiculously fast sample / midi / automation based workflow. But when it comes to recording a band or mixing an album from stems I get, Pro Tools is the go-to. I often find myself exporting stems of my own productions into a Pro Tools session instead of recording in Ableton, just because I know I'll need to edit those vocals and will miss the editing features of Pro Tools, even though it would be much more convenient to handle everything in one project.

[@Falconryder]

I just recently heard an interview with lead singer of Sabaton, and he does the same thing; composes in Ableton Live, records in Pro Tools.

[@fourthtunz]

I think your comparisons are right on! I think ProTools is more like a tape deck and a mixer more than the other two which I also own.

[@justinharrison7517]

Helpful video. I use both Ableton and Pro Tools. Only have been using Pro Tools for a year. Have to say I love mixing in Pro Tools over Ableton. The send/return limitation in Ableton is annoying and the audio effects rack workaround is not enjoyable to use. I agree on the returns being really quiet for whatever reason compared to Pro Tools, always need to use a trim plugin. I will say with pro tools I have run into more bugs than with ableton.

[@Novvadiaries]

Thank you very much for this video !!! It was so helpful for me to decide which program to buy . Really thanks

[@TimBuell]

So glad to hear it!

[@lamontpeoples]

I track drums. First starting out I was using Ableton. However, that quickly changed. I’m using Protools. I feel it’s best for tracking drums

[@TimBuell]

Agreed!

[@oracledantex]

I want to start mixing remixing songs. I have a LaunchPad Pro MK3 which apparently is designed solely for Ableton, but (like Tim) I see a LOT of people using Pro Tools to manipulate audio. I'm also going to try to separate vocals and backing tracks without the benefit of masters and/or try to mimic/recreate the instruments on my own. Any constructive input is appreciated. Thank you.

[@iengineer_247]

The Professional people will never make you feel less of yourself based upon a daw you decide to use. Some people who are non pros are the ones stay getting in people's ear. All daws operate different based on preference and choice for making music. People act like it's a crime to use DAWs😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. I find Logic to be good for tracking, Ableton to be good with sequencing/beat making along with PT is good for mixing and mastering. All daws are about workflow!!! You're sharing your honest opinion/feedback which is helpful. Thanks for the vid keep helping best as you could!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@TimBuell]

Agreed all around!

[@iengineer_247]

*different daws

[@reginasayles]

Thank you for this video. So much good info. I’m a pro tools and Ableton user. Have been debating on whether to learn logic as well because it would make collaborating with one of my groups easier…. Still debating.

[@TimBuell]

Logic is cool and easy to pick up if you are familiar with PT and Ableton.

Amazing review man! Appreciate it!

Great thoughts. Thanks for sharing bro!

Thanks for watching glad they helped!

[@ConnorRollins]

I loved the masterclass you did at Belmont last year where you talked about tracking in Ableton, I definitely hope you do it again. I believe Ableton 12 came out after you posted this video and I think it would score higher reevaluating the new updates. Do you plan on doing that soon or will it be another 5 years lol?

[@TimBuell]

Glad the masterclass was helpful! Shoot me an email (via the contact page on my website) - would love to chat through Ableton with ya!

[@Wicked_Fox]

As an audiophile, which is best for Hi-Res recording, mastering and mixing in 24-Bit or even 32-Bit Float audio??? I only have experience in Stagelight Now called Roland Zenbeats after being bought out.

[@TimBuell]

I would still say Pro Tools is the industry standard for mixing and mastering. Not that other DAWs can’t do it, but most engineers mixing and mastering at the highest level are using Pro Tools.

[@tonyvalenti6614]

Great video! Now that Pro Tools has announced Perpetual Licensing again, what would you score their pricing. I know they were already number one overall, but interested if you’d up pricing to a 2 or 3? Thanks!

[@TimBuell]

Probably increase from 1 to 2. It’s still on the expensive side, but defiantly an improvement from subscription for sure!

[@tonyvalenti6614]

@@TimBuellThanks! Agreed. Good first step! 👍🏻

[@Bashanvibe]

LPX was my first DAW because ProTools work flow was a lot to me and the fact that you could only do it one way!!! They just now getting to use more than one way to do the same move!!! I just recently got into AL for backing tracks and to up my value as a stage musician but in recent years I’ve had the desire to learn all DAWS because I don’t want to be working with an artist and the engineer has to step out for a minute and we have to stop because idk his DAW of choice!!! New sub btw!!!

[@PowerOfDestruction]

I went with Propellerhead Reason 12. The learning curve is 5/5. I didn't want to spend hours figuring out how to make music. I just want to make music. Reason 12 is the best daw with ready to go functions that makes making music fun and exciting! Pro Tools was my first daw, (hated it) Then FL studio's. (wasn't user friendly) and then Abelton (Everything was backwards for me) Then i landed on Reason when it was reason 4, and stayed ever since. Never Liked Mac products just because of the compatibility with other computers. Thanks for the Info, Love the video! Keep it up!

[@warrengoldstein410]

thanks, but how about Cubase. I have only version 6. I got away from Mac and started with it when it first came and continually had to call Germany to EXPLAIN to them how syncing worked. The designers were just computer geeks and not users. I was delighted when PC finally was able to take over. I have Cubase and want to update OR switch to another program at this time. How about a cubase comparison for today's versions. thanks

[@TimBuell]

Hey Warren! I honestly haven’t used Cubase and don’t know anyone else who does so I likely won’t be diving too deep into it.

[@StepaniM]

Hey there. I can tell you for sure that you can fully record, use VSTs, mix, and master in Cubase and get an international standard sound.

[@AdrianHzCa]

Gran video. Ableton lo utilizó solo para cortar y pegar audio, para hacer música o grabar el Logic y como me dedico más a grabar como músico no pago por pro tools con Logic me funciona muy bien.

[@TimBuell]

Thanks so much!

[@mpasistasyalanci]

I think for tracking, mixing, editing etc Reaper is one of the best options out there. It is reliable and easy on the cpu and ram, has a lot of customization( for toolbars, appearance, workflow etc), it is very good and easy for editing, have some great tricks (like spectral analyses on your waveforms, automatic coloring, grouping with just a drag and drop on a folder, can create parameter linking, make automated envelopes from the tracks volume changes, etc ) Every daw has its use though and things that it works the best. If you work and collaborate with established industry studios maybe you can justify the cost and hustle with pro tools. If you create music and want the convenience of all the included instruments Logic is great. If you are creating by arranging loops, phrases, instruments in a more live scenario Ableton could be what you want. There are a whole lot of other daws out there that may be great for what you do, the best is the one that suits your needs and you know how to use it well. If you need a workhorse of a daw, if you have already plugins that you want, if you have a not so powerful computer, if you want to have the option to even put a demo version on a n other computer and work without any limitation and problems... give Reaper a chance. It saved me when I had a slow computer, it saved me when I had to record in a studio that had problems with an other daw and I just downloaded it and record with the demo without even the musicians realized that there was any problem(We later installed the full version there)

[@frankpratte8358]

Reaper's price and the customer service and all the free updates, amazing. Also, the free Reaper Mania tutorial videos are great. I used Pro Tools before Reaper, I'd never go back.

[@JoshMackOfficial]

You cant update logic forever I have a 2015 macbook and it wont update anything at all anymore including the OS

[@unc1589]

That’s not logics fault. The updates are free forever

[@JoshMackOfficial]

@unc1589 if I airdrop logic into a new Mac would I be able to update the version? Thanks

[@fourthtunz]

@@JoshMackOfficial yeah if you get a new Mac logic should be in the updates of your new Mac, better to do it that way through the updates so you get the newest version for the computer you have

any sound quality difference between the three? Sorry am kind of new to daws so yeah!

[@TimBuell]

I don’t believe so. You can make high quality recordings on all.

[@LCRLive687]

You will only notice a quality difference between daws when you move to pro tools HDX systems. But not pro tools light versions. It sounds like all the others.

[@FvdWSeatbelt]

great video 👌 what is te difference between Pro Tools vs Pro Tools First? (which is free with purchase Focusrite interface) or shoud i go for Logic Pro X? i’m a bass player who makes only drum & bass grooves with a midi-usb keyboard for strings underneath.. i use a iMac or MacBook thanks for your advice sorry for my English..

[@FvdWSeatbelt]

that means? 🫣

[@GregRband]

Pro Tools "Intro" is the newer version of "First". Not sure all hardware products (you mentioned) are honoring the PT First free thing to Intro version. I've seen a few that just simply say "no longer avail" sorry for inconvenience upon registering hardware in your account. If thinking Pro Tools, Artist for $99 is the first "real" version for less restricted features.

[@FransvandenBergeMuziekschuur]

Reaper? bandlab cakewalk sonar?

[@JustPete781]

I use Studio One. I was a long time Logic 8-9 user and when 10 dropped I wasn’t really feeling the change. It looked like a beefed up Garage Band. Very user friendly but not for me. I loved Ableton…thought FL was ok but landed on Studio One. It’s just a solid DAW, not to many bells and whistles…just solid work flow, low latency, great stock plugins, good for production, tracking, and mixing I started using pro tools intro and found ProTools is also great for tracking, mixing, audio editing but not so great for production

[@littledrummerboyph]

This is super interesting to me. I'm on PC so Logic isn't an option, but I've also never really given ProTools a shot. About 12 years ago I got Ableton as my first real DAW (re: upgrade from Audacity) with the purposes of introducing clicks and tracks at church and producing music from the ground up. I'm super comfortable in it for both live and studio work and haven't ever really had an issue tracking and mixing things. The take lanes update for comping with Live 11 *was* very much needed and could still be tweaked, but overall it works for me.

[@TimBuell]

Agreed! The updates Ableton has been doing are great

[@RYVENANT]

Lately I've been hearing good things about Studio One, ever mess around on that at all?

[@Leandro-np1uk]

and Digital Performer?

[@TimBuell]

Never used it but I know several people that like it.

[@elemental_animal]

Loved this breakdown! Also ik this may not have been at the time of the filming of this video but- correct me if im wrong, doesn't Avid provide a perpetual license now? Its significantly more expensive but i'd assume its better in the long run- also jit sure if the perpetual license has the same benefits so if anyone knowsbthat pls let me know, I don't have much experience in this industry yet💀

[@TimBuell]

Hey! They announced the perpetual license RIGHT after this video came out haha. I think it is still a little too expansive but definitely bumps pro tools up a little bit in my mind.

[@elemental_animal]

@@TimBuell Ah, I see, Tysm!!!

[@gavinhammond3137]

Protools is great to mix and track on but I still prefer doing it in Ableton because editing and the workflow is a lot faster and if time is money I'll go with the more efficient option.

[@savagecalibre5178]

Logic Pro $199.99 Ableton Live 12 Suite $749.00 Pro Tools Ultimate $1,499.00 Ableton is Not Cheap Bro And its Design For Live Performance. and it is Widely Use by Skrillex, The Chainsmokers,David Guetta etc "Personal Opinion" For me it Depends what DAW we are used to be trained and versatile to it. if your fast to work on a certain daw then that would be the best for you. it only depends on what we use. but hey! Spread Love and Make Music to All so we could Enjoy! Peace

[@TimBuell]

Agreed that whatever works for your workflow you should use. But most people can get away with using Pro Tools Studio (not ultimate) and Ableton Standard (not suite) for about half of both the prices you listed. Ableton is definitely used for live performances - but it’s grown in studio use a ton primarily for people that use loops/software instruments and I think it has a ton of great recording features. But like I say in the video several times - it’s about whatever workflow and feature set works best for you.

[@Falconryder]

Ableton intro is less than $100. Standard is less than $450, which would be enough for most people even professionally. I think it definitely counts as affordable.

[@thepatzer]

Ableton is great but probably not for your use case. I’d think Studio One or even Reaper and Luna would be better for straight ahead multitrack audio recording and editing. Ableton is amazing for looping, warping, sample playing, etc. dark horse might be Cubase?

[@LilHendoMrFoolstyle]

I agree with you.

[@TimBuell]

Glad to hear it!

[@mrentrepreneur7965]

Excellent review Tim Im a mac pro user so Logic is my number one But I've KNOWN pro tools Longer so this is number 2 never used abelton so I can 't rate it but you did your thing with this comparison and I like the others viewing are appreciative of your position good stuff Tim👌👍🦾

[@tonylancer7367]

I find Ableton to be a bit more robust than Logic, especially with the audio overload messages that randomly pop up on Logic. I agree that Ableton is not as straightforward as other DAWs (in fact I used to think that it was ugly compared to the others), but once you get it, things just "click". I don't understand why Logic haven't implemented a search function for plugins, and be able to adjust the imported loop to an already rolling project (yes I know of Smart Tempo, but it's gets a bit quirky with multiple loops, Ableton just does it well). Pro Tools looks great but with all the changes happening to it, probably staying away and getting good at the current DAWs I use.

[@TimBuell]

I agree totally on Ableton. I was 100% lost until it finally just “makes sense” - and now I really enjoy working with it.

[@ChetHanks-eh1md]

Ableton is pretty ugly and confusing at first. But it's a solid daw and very stable. It's better than logic but I like using logic more.

[@MaschinenKopf1998]

Just tried logic its insane to me that you cannot edit sections from recorded guitar for example that has multiple takes. You can't put crossfades or anything on it you first have to flatten the take folder which deletes all your other takes.... well. back to pro tools.

If I remember correctly there is a way to make the playlisting/editing more pro tools like - but it takes some doing.

So…. With years of use I’ve spent a lot of time with all 3. Pro Tools is professional. If might not have the best plugins but some of them like lofi are slick and classic. I recently came back from Logic and I think now perpetual licenses are back Pro Tools is back. It’s early days but I have a professional love for Pro Tools. I want to get away from Mac as well. I can tell you have professional experience and after being in a studio I was never as fast as I was in Pro Tools. 🎉Pro tools is back!

[@SaturnVoyager11]

Basically you´re leaving Ableton in the last place in almost all the points cause it´s the DAW where you feel less experienced, which is fair cause this video it´s about you but it´s not fair for a guy who just starts and is looking for objective points :( . I´m a Protools, Reaper and Ableton Live user and I totally chose Ableton Live over Protools but not over Reaper.

[@Sampelmind81]

I bought logic X 4 years ago for 199€ and until now i never had to payed for any updates + new instruments + functions etc. A few months ago logic 11 was released and i got it also for free. So i am convinced it deserves a 3 ;-) I don`t know exactly how much money an ableton user has to pay in the same time!

[@AustinCooper]

I feel like this guy never figured out Ableton and the type of workflow it is designed for. Ableton is an absolute powerhouse for creativity and sound design in ways Pro Tools can never even imagine. Automation, for example, is an absolute chore in Pro Tools, yet in Ableton you can easily automate any parameter in any plugin with a click or two. You can even automate automations with other automations. Would you like to automate a parameter with an LFO and then have the LFO rate increase when the sound hits a certain volume, and simultaneously fade in a gated delay effect as the LFO rate increases? Easy, this takes less than 10 clicks in Ableton. I'm not sure this is even possible in Pro Tools. Every plugin, parameter, and control in Ableton can be automated and mapped to any other control. Its basically like the entire DAW is a modular system where anything can be patched to any other thing. For someone who wants a DAW to only record, edit, and mix, I can see where this guy is coming from. But DAWs are so much more than an editable multi track recorder these days. I feel like he completely missed that entire side of what makes DAWs so amazing. I want a DAW that encourages me to experiment, to push my creativity, to have limitless manipulation over audio, and to bend the rules. I find Pro Tools to be very lacking and inflexible in these areas of production, especially when it comes to sound design and creativity.

[@TimBuell]

I use Ableton for both productions and for use of running racks for live shows just about every day. Like you said - it’s designed with a certain workflow and that workflow, for me - isn’t as streamlined as pro tools is for me when in the studio. You can also command, ctrl, option click any parameter in a plugin in Pro Tools and enable automation for it. Like I say several times in the video - all three of these programs do a great job for about any application. It comes down to preference and workflow.

[@mstruth8628]

Mixcraft is the best for me because of it's ease of use, price, and it simply does what I need it to do. However, I have found out that it's best to use the DAW that you can EASILY Manipulate. A DAW to me is just like a PIANO KEYBOARD. Each keyboard has special features. In this case, Mixcraft is the BEST for Beginners, Intermediates, and Advanced.

[@Magnetic1908]

Nowadays it’s a studio one vs Pro Tools because of editing amongst other things

[@matthewgaines10]

Discussion has a built in bias of what you know. At the end of the day, there is no best DAW. There only is the best DAW for you. Thus, everyone needs to consider their musical style, personal work flow, and preferences and decide for themselves what is best for them. Look at what others making the music you make are using. Find out why they use that DAW. Get free trials of the candidates that you want to try based on interest and recommendations. Pick the one that works best for you for what you do. That is the best DAW.

[@TimBuell]

Agreed. That’s why this time I tried to rank these in categories instead of broadly saying “this one is best” - but it’s all subjective and like you said. If it works - use that one!

HMMMMMPH! Kind of looking at Reaper, but not sure yet. Trying Ableton I am like WHAT THE HECK IS THIS I CAN'T DO NOTHING lol. Here are my thoughts, now - I used some stock library, but getting alot of plugins on the side really changed it for me. Reason synths, drumming patches, reverb, SSL comps, I am more and more NOT using default logic so I can now just migrate those plugs to new DAW. HOWEVER, and it's a doozie, is CONVERTING ALL THEM DAMN SONGS to master sessions so to speak. Thats a challenge for anyone who's been doing 1000's of sessions, or anything like that. I have 100's, 392 to be exact. Yikes!

Converting sessions is super tough and never a clean solution. Often times that is WHY people stick with one DAW forever, because they just can't commit to having to redo/re-dial every session they've ever done. haha Even when I had a PC, I still kept a Mac around because having access to old Logic sessions I did was important.

Ableton has more virtual instruments. Tons of them in the live suite. And logic to me is like a child’s program. I found it confusing and I’ve been using DAWs since Cakewalk in the 90’s. You have instrument tracks. Sample track. Drum tracks. Midi tracks…. That’s confusing because there is only two types of tracks. audio and midi. And logic you have to have an overpriced apple computer. The reason I’m watching this is because I was thinking about trying pro tools as an Ableton user. Mainly for audio and mixing. But 29 bucks a month that’s basically $350 a year every year. Seems crazy to have to keep paying that much for a DAW.
