Sweetwater Advice

Mark Maxwell
I've been using Digital Performer since it was Performer 1.5. In fact, I've composed, arranged, sequenced, mixed at least 20 complete CD projects in DP. Bottom line: DP has always been a joy to work with. It does everything I need it to do and way, way more. Everything from the GUI (which is easy and intuitive), to the included effects and virtual instruments (which are superlative), to the many and varied editing windows (which all make sense and are easy to use), and even the help menus and manual - all well designed and optimized to maximize creativity and work flow. Take it from me, a DP veteran: if you're looking for a great DAW, you'll love Digital Performer.

AMAZING

Best DAW EVER! Hands down, I have Pro Tools 8 as well and DP 7 blows it out of the water. Do yourself a favor and save your money, don't buy a pro tools system. DP7 with any of MOTUs interfaces is perfect for the home studio!

Wow, Wow, Wow!!! The "BEST" release of DP EVER!!!!!

I've been a DP user since version DP3 and I really love DP but I did have a few problems with DP6 up until DP6.02 took care of 99% of my DP6 related issues.

When Logic 9 was released I gave VERY SERIOUS consideration to switching and I even purchased it so that I could have a personal experience with it. I've concluded that Logic isn't bad at all but it really shouldn't be compared to DP7. It does have a lot of bells and whistles and for many thats a good thing but where it really counts it still falls short. If you're into SERIOUS MIDI compositions, really advanced editing, or if you happen to need DAE, forget about Logic. If you're going to tell me all about the great plugins that ship with Logic I'll agree but who among us only uses the default plugins? Who doesn't use top shelf plugins from companies like Universal Audio, Waves, etc? Logics plugins are good but they're not going to replace these 3rd party plugins for anyone. Looking at it that way, Logic becomes less of a bargain.

DP7 really has to be the best release ever by MOTU!!! I'm glad MOTU released this version when they did; we needed this version in the worst way and I can say that it doesn't disappoint! If you're looking for a DAW, you HAVE to consider DP7!

Awesome software, but then again, I've been using it from version 1.0. The iPhone/iPad app is DA BOMB! No need to buy the Euphonix MC control for $1800 when you can buy an iPad

My Sales Engineer has always been great. I trust his input. He's been invaluable as a consultant and a big part of why I've worked with Sweetwater for so long. I've recommended scores of people to Sweetwater because of his service.
