Okay I don’t suppose I am the first nor will I be the last to raise this question that is which DAW is best out of Logic, Pro Tools, Ableton or Cubase but here is part one of my thoughts and coming up soon, part two and the thoughts of music production school tutors, Al, George and Paul When I very first started in the olden days (early 90′s) we all used Atari STs with a whole 512k of Ram for sequencing Midi and not much else

I had a chap called Will Payne from the Sunday Mirror contact me and ask if I could spot any Antares Auto tune pitch correction software on Susan Boyle's pre-recorded audition performance of 'I Dreamed a Dream' on Britain's Got Talent, which is a Simon Cowell show like Xfactor He gave me two Youtube links to analyse - one of the pre-recorded audition which apparently had been Auto tuned and one of a performance in the live final which can't have been as it was live

10 years ago the standard way to correct pitch in vocals was Antares Autotune To correct bits manually, you’d have to use graphical mode

There's a rumor Apple (Logic) are to stop support for Avid's Digidesign products (Pro Tools) This is a massive kick in the teeth for Avid

Before the turn of this decade I used the Mighty Mouse, I got used to and enjoyed the scroll ball/sphere/nipple on the front It was wonderful to be able to scroll up and down in the the arrangement and Piano Roll windows
