I agree it's a hype.
I feel they complicated midi far too much if using external midi gear - plenty things to set up to record the controller you want etc. You cannot simply arm for record - if not echoing/monitoring midi - no midi controllers are recorded. Not a problem with VI, but may be external gear.
EDIT: S1v3 have track templates, my bad - not highly marketed is seems.
The new stuff with S1 v3 with multiinstrument and multi FX or what they called is easily made in PT too - if having what you need as VST instruments too you can use Metaplugin to host those and do everything S1v3 do.
But if S1 still is good alternative to PT I cannot say - never had hands on with PT.
Reaper is probably best first alternative - and to me Sonar is current choice. But am just a songwriter making demos feasable for final production - full time.
