When I started making music 10 years ago, I limited myself to using hardware only. Hardware synth, drum machine, mixer, effects etc. It was a great learning experience, which is why I did it. I wanted to understand the fundamentals.
5 years ago I finally took the dive into the digital realm with a mixer/soundcard combo and a DAW (logic X).
Forget 10x software, this was closer to 1000x faster.
I’m sure the early days of DAWs wasn’t like stepping into the game in 2015, but the software workflow was stupidly quicker than doing everything physically in real-time.
Now days we have heaps of choices for DAWs and soundcards and cross platform comparability. What an age to be a musician!
