Hey I’m new to music production and can’t decide on a Daw to commit to. I’ve only used logic but want to get set on one that I can use both on Mac and Windows so I’m not locked down to buying only Mac Books. I’ve been looking around a researching some and think Reaper, Cubase, and Bitwig all look nice. All I’m trying to do in them is simply make beats but don’t have all the gear such as a keyboard so most of my work will be done drawing in the notes into the piano roll and add in effects as you would with making beats. Just wanted to get some input or other suggestions of which DAW would be considered the best for this.

    I used Cubase for a long ass time and still do, but I also used bitwig alot and I think I’d recommend you that. Note that bitwig is actually quite an expensive daw. Each full version update is like 100€, so for that price there is a serious lack of normal functions. But it’s easier and more intuitive/fun to jam out beats than cubase for sure, no question about that.
