I have a good friend who just recently sold me his old computer with the following prorams installed: Cool Edit Pro 2.0, Nuendo 1.61, Cakewalk Pro_Audio 9 and Cakewalk home studio, Cubase SX, Wavelab, and Logic Platinum. I notice that Nuendo, Cubase and Wavelab are all made by the same company (Steinberg). I would like to know which program is the best for recording and editing. Not just the Steinberg products but all the other abovementioned programs as well. I record with the Yamaha AW4416 (because I'm So comfortable with it) and then I import the WAV.s into one of these programs to edit the waveform graphically and add some cool effects from various plug-ins. I'm new to this computer-based recording/mixing/editing thing. I use these programs at random to do my editing. I want to find out which is the most powerful program so I can stick to that one and focus on that one so I don't have to juggle my time around trying to leard 10 different programs at the same time. I would love it if there was some way I could focus on one program and use the knowledge of one program to help me understand the functions of the others. Are any one of these software progs close-to-industry-standards? Are any of them a-hell-of-a-lot more Pro-level than the others? I just want to know where to direct my time and energy. Please help.

Wow,that dude must've laid out some major $$$ for that much software.:rolleyes: :eek: :confused: :D
 
FYI, Just because he sold the PC, doesn't mean he also transfered his right to use the softwares... you know how much their cost, don't you? ;) ...and what? No manuals? :eek:

Anyway, any software you mentioned above has their own pro/cons. Each is good for their own purpose. CoolEdit Pro for example is helluva great wave editor, but it doesn't do MIDI at all. Any Cakewalk products above is good multitracking program for both MIDI and audio, but don't do wave editor as Wavelab does. Cubase SX is similiar with Cakewalk, it's on Sonar level rather than two of those mentioned above. Generaly, you'll need multitracking program which support DirectX and VST plugins, and also wave editor. You didn't expect us tell you to use Cubase in Cakewalk forum, did you?

...and which rock harder?

:confused: What?.................No Samplitude or Sound Forge??? Dude, you got ripped off bad!!! I'd cut all ties with that so-called 'friend'!!

Ed:D :D
