What daw do you use? I figure that since I want to seriously start writing and producing songs, I need top of the line software, used by a top of the line person.
i think that's a terrible idea. i recall trying to start on top-of-the-line software and it was crippling and i wasted at least 5 years being confused about it. if your software is too far ahead of yourself, you won't be able to feel yourself, nor find yourself. you can get intimidated and confused, and maybe give up. eventually i figured out that i needed to start with something hilariously simple, so i could feel like i was a little more in charge. i'm just trying to save you the trouble and confusion, and get straight to what really works
