I've been debating for a while on whether or not I should jump ship on the PC platform> I went shopping on the weekend and ended up with a 2 gHz MacBook. I was looking on the Windows side but I wasn't prepared to go the Vista route and there wasn't a whole heck of a lot of hardware left with XP preloaded, so I decided to bite the bullet and go Mac.
Now I need to decide what to do on the DAW side. With Windows I had been using Tracktion but as of late I had doing more and more with a product called Podium. Boot camp will keep me going for a while here but I do want to make a full transition to the Mac. I don't want to spend a whole lot of money on this so I am looking at the following: Tracktion 3 Ultimate Bundle Logic Express Cubase Studio 4 I've looked at Ableton Live on the Windows side and could never get into so I'm not considering it. Am I overlooking anything? It's also looking like I have to abandon my favorite drum program (Jamstix) so I am curious as to what some lower cost options might be in this area. I appreciate any feedback you might have... Darcy |

I appreciate the feedback so far. I am leaning towards Logic Express and maybe down the road move to Logic Pro. And thanks for the warning on EZ Drummer.... It was on my list. Anybody try Addictive Drums? That looks promising.
