Thanks for the recommendation. I’ve been using digital audio workstation software for quite some time (since the days when it was “cakewalk or bust” on windows and then sonar shortly afterwards). I am quite happy with Ableton Live. I am an IT professional as well and have concerns with using windows as a platform with which to run it on. Companies such as adobe state that your consent is implied for their usage of your intellectual property and creative projects for the purposes of training machine learning models. Copilot may follow suit with an “opt out” model very shortly. Combined with Microsoft’s failure to gain any traction for the WASAPI driver model, and the inherent issues with closed source software operating on such a fundamental layer of computing with no way of keeping its privileges check and no way to understand the full scope of telemetry and any changes made to those practices (see: recall, a new windows feature involving screen capture) the list of reasons why I’d like to switch to an open source operating system are endless. Live does not support Linux officially. Bitwig has an almost identical workflow and ergonomic philosophy, and integrates the modular MSP philosophy of “Max” much more seamlessly into the UX. if after reading this you still think I would benefit by giving the DAW you mentioned a go I certainly will. I want to say I have a license from a humble bundle or something?
