Time to upgrade!

Abelton 12 is a great daw that I’ve had a lot of fun with. I don’t think you can go wrong, but there are other options too that wouldn’t hurt to explore. I’ve used Abelton Logic and FL. I think Logic is far superior when it comes to audio recording and editing (especially when it comes to stuff like editing drum takes, you can group your drum mic recordings, make edits to all of the drums all at once that won’t affect phase, quantize them together / comp them together etc.). I also think the warping sounds better. Abelton is superior in terms of being a sound design playground. Way easier to experiment and just make weird cool sounds (also automation is a million times better). Abelton Racks are an amazing feature I use all the time that I wish Logic had. Now adays I find myself going to Abelton when I do anything electronic and Logic when I do anything more in terms of classic rock. But I’ve seen great producers who use both and they make it both work. I don’t really think you can go wrong regardless.

FL I haven’t used in years, but I switched from FL to logic because there was barely any sort of audio quantization options in FL atleast back then.
