DAWs all do the same thing. Use what you are comfortable with, and what makes you the most creative.

This thread's not about what DAW one should use, but what DAW the pro's use ;)

jack beats, logic. and cubase sometimes.

joker logic...

mala logic nowadays, reason back then

rusko acid...

benga uses flstudio alongside logic...

if i were u i wouldnt spazz so much on logic.. its a good program... but the main reason why people buy it is because its really cheap... and comes with more then okay stock effects.. which some third party pluggins always could supplant.. its good... i like it.. but i have it and still wish i knew ableton... and i miss fl studio more then anything ive ever owned..

Borgore doesn't use reason. he used to be on cubase, but switched to ableton. he said he uses massive for all his basses (big surprise)

Datsik uses logic

Reso uses Logic (hell yea)

Pretty sure Funtcase said in his computer music feature a few months back that he switched up from Reason to Nuendo.

What exactly is Nuendo...

I know it's a DAW. But I always hear folk say it's almost exclusively used in video work (or at least dealing with audio for video?). But then I hear folk saying it's just a really expensive version of Cubase (albeit with more shit obviously). Clarification from anyone?

you're pretty much right

Nuendo vs. Cubase

By Christian Mullen, eHow Contributor
.Nuendo and Cubase are two audio production software suites created by the same company, Steinberg, that allow engineers, producers and musicians to record music and video for final editing. Each is capable of recording multiple tracks and can use multiple effects on each track simultaneously.

History
Cubase and Nuendo were created by the Steinberg company and have gone through many changes over the past years with technological advances leading the way to more powerful tools for audio and video editing. Cubase was first released in 1989 and was one of the first digital software suites available on the market. Nuendo was introduced in the year 2000 as an alternate version of Cubase, more appropriate for post-production.
Features
Both Cubase and Nuendo have recording capabilities that are dependent on your computer's overall processing power. Each program can use multiple effects on each channel during mix-down, but the main difference between the two is that Nuendo is geared to post-production and video editing. It has video editing features not seen in Cubase and it is capable of full 5.1 surround sound and the editing of this format, whereas Cubase is more adept at stereo music tracks.
Pricing
Due to its advanced nature, Nuendo is far more expensive than its audio brother, Cubase. Nuendo 4, the newest version of Nuendo, includes the newest state-of-the-art automation system and retails for $2,340. However, it can be purchased on websites such as Musicians Friend and Music123 for about $1,800. Cubase 5, the latest version, has a retail price of $599 but can be bought for about $500.
Cubase Variations
Currently there are three versions of Cubase available for the music producer or engineer. The full version has all of the capabilities and the most features included. There is also a Studio edition that limits the inputs and outputs to 128 from 256, does not have extended channel EQ and has a limited amount of instrument sounds included. The most stripped-down version of Cubase 5 is the Essential package, which further limits your options, but has an attractive price for those who wish to begin recording on their own.
Nuendo Variations
Currently there is only one version of Nuendo available and it is a full-featured suite of software including 32-bit surround sound capabilities as well as the most modern VST3 surround sound plug-ins. VST3 plug-ins allow the user to fully control effects that are added to tracks in a surround sound environment and were created by the Steinberg Company for use with Nuendo and its modern video and audio production capabilities
