You can dip in with the essentials package for €80 though (perhaps even this is the type of thing they bundle with stuff so you might find a free licence key for it somewhere). They might also offer a crossgrade price if you contact them. I got a great crossgrade offer from Presonus when I decided to start using Studio One. I just had to prove my ownership of another DAW (I sent them a Reason 10 receipt I think).

It seems like snap is a bit of a disaster. I have a VM running Ubuntu for testing some things and ended up completely removing snap it was taking up so much space.

This week I’ve been focused on mixing my next EP. Will probably spend next week doing the same 😁

I print and bind the manual for any hardware I buy. Whilst undoubtedly I can discover a lot of the functionality just from experience, there’s usually some stuff that you discover from the manual that just isn’t the sort of thing you find out by chance 😊

Never tried the MPC stuff though (beyond a day with the Force before it had disk streaming), so can’t give any specific recommendations…

Ah cool, yeah the wireless thing probably wouldn’t be so important as it would probably sit in the same spot all the time 😁

I can definitely see the appeal. Perhaps when I have some cash to spare I’ll look at it again 😊👍

Oh cool. I had heard about Ghost years back. Completely forgot about it 😁

I’ll check it out thanks 🙏
