I was thinking of which software I actually used to make music though the years, so here is a chronological list:- Wavelab (One track, overdub)- Fruity loops- Dance- and HipHop Ejay- Cubase- Logic Pro- Studio One- Ableton Live- Bitwig

@dried I remember making a beat in Fruity Loops and then recording this whole jam with me sticking the mic on to the speaker to create feedback.

It was really reliant when it came to feedback

@ranjit I was a really happy Logic user for years, but totally forgot it until I started working with a local “several million plays” LoFi producer, who knew all the tips and tricks. Really great DAW still.

@mosgaard Well, it was the first half of the 90s.

An Atari ST did the sequencing for my hardware synths (mainly a Korg Trinity and some 19"-synths I am not sure of which ones I owned at the time). The Falcon served as 8-track audio recording system: atari.soundpool.de/at_ie.htm (used for voice, guitar, field recording elements, already mixed down sequencer master track).

@musenhain ah, of course!

@mosgaard This is fun!
- Reason 1.0
- Digital Performer
- Emagic Logic Gold
- Pro Tools
- Various 24 track and 16 track tape machines from Ampex, Studer, MCI, & Otari

I’ve never stopped using Reason or Pro Tools and I don’t bother trying to talk clients out of recording to tape: if they’re serious about it, I’m a solid choice and I’m rarely the cause of sessions taking longer than the artist has budgeted).

[reillypascal@hachyderm.io]

@mosgaard for me it went:
- Audacity
- Logic Pro
- Audition (in an undergrad music tech course, just for a bit)
- Max/MSP
- Pure Data
- REAPER

All of these except for Audition I still use regularly

@mosgaard
Abandoned, never forget :
- Cubase 2 (Atari ST)
- Pro 24 III (Atari ST)
- Cakewalk
- Samplitude
- Pro Tools
- Digital Performer

Still using, runs fine on Debian / Wine :
- Sequoia
- Emagic Logic Audio 5
- FL Studio
- Studio One

@mosgaard
Cubase
Cubase w/Reason
ProTools w/Reason
just Reason

(I still like Reason!)

[mosgaard@uddannelse.social]

@kingdomkrumb that's great! I tried Reason a couple of times, but never really got into the workflow. But have been using the plugin-version ever since, to get access to mostly the samplers.

What kind of music do you produce with it?

[mosgaard@uddannelse.social]

@tourte great list! Can you work using the apps through Debian / Wine, or does it give you any limitations?

[mosgaard@uddannelse.social]

@reillypascal what a diverse list! Do you only use Max/MSP stand alone?

I actually still use Audacity to rename meta-data in Wav files sometimes

[mosgaard@uddannelse.social]

@fadersolo It have to be joy working a place, where the tape machines are kept running like that.

Is Pro Tools the usual digital recording solution at your place?
