Your probably going to laugh and that is just fine but does anyone still use ACID PRO as a main DAW?
No not Lysergic acid diethylamide, Sony Acid Pro.
I've been using it for 10 years and have recently gotten back into producing. As I see it, it's completely outdated and virtually abandoned by Sony, and it's a real pain to not have 64bit VSTI support or midi to vsti effect support and primitive effect enveloping, but I think ACID it is still to this day just an amazing program. I tried to switch to ableton a few years back but allways found myself back in ACID as it's functionality, simplicity, and beatmapping/time streaching capabilities are very good and easy to use. I have any incredible amount of freedom and precision and my workflow is obviously excellent as I know it like the inside of my palm
Im worried it could be a sticking point in my development as a producer, and hinder my learning and capabilities. I've always believed it doesn't really matter how you get there so long as you get there, but am I really missing out alot by not using Ableton, Protool ect..?
There are work around for some flaws of Acid Pro like using bidule ect.. but they're undeniably tedious.
