In this week’s Audio Premium content, Mo Volans continues his series on creating the perfect production tool kit. This week we look at the issues to consider when choosing your DAW software.
To learn more about what you get as part of Audio Premium, read this. To take a peek inside this tutorial, hit the jump!
So far in this series we have looked at the typical plug-ins and processors you will need to mix your music and we have also delved into the world of hardware. So far you should be pretty clear on some of the kit you will need to get the job done.
In this instalment we are looking at software again but this time we focus on the very heart of your productions, the DAW (Digital Audio Workstation). There is a huge amount of choice here with an ever growing number of different products on the market begging for your attention.
As this is a pretty general and often misunderstood subject I’ll attempt to break things down a little bit and really get down to the details you should be looking at when choosing this incredibly important and often expensive part of your recording set up.
