Go ahead, you can say it... You won't hurt my feelings lol.
I've used Audacity for over ten years, it has it's limitations of course but as a whole I really like it. I find audacity to be very 'plug and play' and user friendly for what it is. I wanted to be able to capture midi data as well as have some more features with my recording/editing software, I'm also cheap and just recording as a home hobby so I wanted to spend little to no money on this upgrade. After some research I decided to give Cakewalk a try. The download and install was quick and easy with no viruses, I was immediately able to disable the bandlab social media aspect so I don't have to deal with that, and the software it self boots right up and runs very smoothly despite my old crappy computer. The problem is... I am very overwhelmed with this program.
Is this just something I'll get used to as I play with it, considering I'm coming off of a lengthy stint with a very basic program, or is Cakewalk just in fact confusing? I have played around a bit with logic on a friend's computer and didn't have a problem, it was easy to use it's basic functions, but I don't have a Mac and I don't want to buy an expensive program.
Just curious of other people's thoughts on cakewalk.
