As I am an ableton man myself, this thread has persuaded me I need to take the plunge for pro tools. I just keep hearing good things about it.

the tool kit analogy is accurate

most of us want to push the limits of our ability to create high quality productions and we're willing to struggle thru various "tools" to find the ones that give us the best sound regardless of the flaws any particular tool might possess.

Any musician/production person worth their salt knows that nothing in this business comes easy...that line about "paying dues" applies to everyone who ever took the leap into the entertainment biz void.

Up Next: Mac Mini M2, PT 2023.9, Focusrite Solo - I love this set up! It's faster than I could have hoped for.
Then: ProTools 5-ish digi001 on a PC running Windows Millennium

Yeah, it's hard work. I make techno/house - I like abletons quick flow, but I think the way forward is moving over to pro tools and learning actual real sound design.

Will see how it goes!
