@mosgaard Awesome! Post-xmas I'm contemplating making the jump from Ableton, just for the sake of being able to run Bitwig natively with Linux
@simonjust @mosgaard For the record, Reaper also runs natively under Linux & is the world's best DAW. OK, that last bit is my opinion but the first part is true

@simonjust @mosgaard When you do, check out Kenny Gioia's videos on the Youtubes - there's hundreds of tutorials & stuff & he explains things so well 🤩 https://www.youtube.com/@REAPERMania

@simonjust @mosgaard Yeah, exactly - he sticks to one subject & keeps it short & to the point

@simonjust @jwcph it’s both really great DAWs and really different, when it comes to design and workflow.
And they both have test versions, so they can easily be installed and tested.
Here’s a little Bitwig teaser I liked coming fra Ableton, with some best of functions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=45qfgEpKlVY

@mosgaard @simonjust You could actually run Reaper for free forever, if you don't mind the 5-second nag screen on launch (I pay, because while I can, in fact, live with that, I also want to support good products

@johnrohde @mosgaard @simonjust That was the switch I wanted to avoid after I grew out of Garageband - you know, in case Apple turned into even more of a shit company that I wanted out from under... dunno where I got that idea
(I also don't know why people apparently complain about the Reaper interface but we pro'lly shouldn't turn Simon's thread into a Reaperfest
)
The more choices the better!
I already got the trial of Bitwig running. I just need to find a dime or two to purchase a license. After xmas, hehe.
