I’d also like to add that I have a ton of outboard gear, but I’m going to say the thing that makes OGs angry: There is no factor other than workflow preference and need for tactile feedback that keeps anyone from doing literally anything they could possibly need to do ITB. In addition ive heard insane things that certain DAWs “sound” a certain way (warmer, cleaner, etc). There is no factual basis for any of it. so my desire to do it all ITB makes having a daw that supports CLAP a priority for future proofing my workflow. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/CLever_Audio_Plug-in Dont want to get into the nitty gritty but basically all industry standard plugin formats namely AU, VST, RTAS (and its successor) are proprietary. There’s some weird history with VST that confuses some people about this, but it’s a proprietary format developed by steinberg for steinberg hosts (Cubase). having an open plugin format is important, and I believe it is important for the CLAP format to take its place among those other contenders.

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?

I’ve been leaning on MAXMSP as a live user a lot. I have some weird quirks about making every patch from init due to some elitist misconceptions early on in my journey, but I learned quite a bit that way. Strayed from it during the whole “vintage emulation” craze but back to focusing on creative design rather than modeling. Thinking of making the move to Bitwig, anyone rocking ‘nix with BW?

LYRICS: Sprouted from the toxic soil that spreads for miles all around me a garden blooms within the church Though god has left us here to tread through the tragic end of our own story There's still a ray of light for what its worth Choking on the thick black smoke of diabolical machinations The flowers thrive among the blight Tended by a maiden fair who wears a ribbon in her hair While the fire from the mother of the devil burns through the night See the men with the glowing eyes They have sold their souls for their foolish pride As they march along, as our planet dies They will fight for naught Cause their own demise I can hear the planet crying as the world is slowly dying Somehow people here don't seem to care As I look out of my window set beneath a sky of metal people suffocate from poisonous air Hope is lost we've paid the cost The threshold of damnation crossed No longer knowing wrong from right Says the man who's sitting at the bar With a gun where there was once an arm While the fire from the mother of the devil burns through the night And as I try to gain control I feel her will Its taking hold Confirming all my darkest fears and somehow now I can’t recall The beauty there before the fall This story ends in blood and tears See the men with the glowing eyes They have sold their souls for their foolish pride As they march along, as our planet dies They will fight for naught Cause their own demise And the men in black will scour the world Searching far and wide For the ebon pearl While the devil waits on a falling star to become a god In the planet scar I am just another puppet as the angel blows his trumpet And the world comes crashing in and who will save us now that the sky is falling down I ask you who will save us now that the sky is falling falling falling down
