Dood, have you been listening? There is really no better between the big programs. Cubase and Logic are in there. You want easy, then you don't get 'best'. If you want 'easy (cheap)', then you get limitations.
You need to decide how much time you are willing to devote to what it is you wish to do. Good stuff, does not come without the price of devotion to learning the shiz. You want great, then educate yourself by learning to be great. You want 'easy', then prepare yourself for inadequate results, cuz that ship ain't gonna float in the ocean of others that take the time to learn a good software program. It will sink like your dreams will.
Don't ride the SS Minnow, unless you want to be a sitcom. Read, try, and learn bro! Nothing comes easy to the lazy.
Pick one, learn it, and decide if it works for you. If not, try another.
You have to take the time to figure this out yourself man. This means a whole buttload of time! There is no best, or easy.
In my day job of remodeling, there is a common project management triangle. You only get to pick two. In this case, you don't get much at all, if you do not plan to invest the time into learning the trade to begin with.
