Forced to change DAW :( Help needed

[jaydot]

Got my head around it to a degree, there's no "paste and replace" utility it seems to layer items instead of replacing them (and thus plays them both together I think), but using the synth and sampler in Reaper made the tune called "Midnight Watchman" in my signature, took my forever to get a wobble on the synth and automation is longer than Ableton but still figured most things out

Why not just reinstall the software you had legitimately purchased before your machine crashed?

On another note, if I was to splash the case what do people recommend?

Cubase 6, absolute winner!!

Pro tools pride!
I don't care if you think it sucks for EDM.

Only have experience with Fl and Ableton, and to be honest I much prefer the former. If you were planning on buying a new daw, Fl is the cheaper of the two iirc :]

Jaydot - tweak a knob, open automation panel and select - show last touched fx parameter only. couldn`t be simpler.
Tweak cut-off.
Select automation lane and click param modulate to create a wobble with an lfo assigned.
that or you can also assign an lfo shape to the lane.
for the life of me I can`t remember how I did it, but it essentially draws a sine wav into the automation lane.

It also has the option to layer items or to replace.
It`s in the preferences.

@Electric head: It was more the automation of the envelopes being a bit fiddly compared to Ableton...

and you can't remember how you did it? That's no good then is it?

Well if you`re going to be that way I`ll go figure it out again.

Here you go SUCKA!!!

Sws extensions, padre's lfo generator.
Select the envelope and run the action.
It will draw an lfo on the lane.
