Daria J.

Marketing Associate

“This DAW is great for all kinds of music production, especially great for electronic music making in which it excels at.”

Brett C.

Producer

Pros

“The texts feature is also a bit of square looking, is match easier to generate a video of the text with a transparent background and lay it over.”

Xavier C.

Creator

“For those of us who depend on this software professionally and purchase upgrades annually, stability must be the top priority.”

Ron M.

President

“You have more power than the built in Windows editor, but it's not quite at the professional level movie studios.”

Zoe P.

Engineer

Cons

“Now it is hard to find files that belong to the same project and if you export any loops to external drive Live won't find it and it appears as "file offline". ”

Marketing Associate

“the sampler i found not to be the quality sampler i expected or maybe im asking”

ALAN R.

producer

“How clunky and unappealing the user interface is.”

ayham k.

Electronic Music Producer

Cons

“The FXs are not always great, they are hard to master, you usually find yourself looking online on how to make some sort of effect on Vegas, not all are very intuitive, also the sizing features are rough, especially when you are using different sizes of images.”

Xavier C.

Creator

“With Version 23, I encountered multiple bugs and instability issues that made it unreliable for professional work.”

Ron M.

President

“As a long-time user, I never expected to be considering alternative platforms, but when stability becomes uncertain, continuing to rely on it feels risky.”
