Universal Audio - Luna - Free Windows DAW

[rsm]

I'm set with Ableton Live, on windows, but this looks interesting IMO

I was wondering if and when they'd port it over to Windows.

 

[crwnedblasphemy]

What about Mac?

It's been on Mac for over 4 years mate.

This is why I said, "I was wondering if and when they'd port it over to Windows."

first I heard of Luna! Like I said I've been using Ableton Live so haven't really been looking. but free and UA, should be very good

Looks like I might have an excuse to fire up boot camp. C’mon… they put those cute little VU meters in there. I can hear the warmth already…lol.
Joking aside I liked that mixer layout.

Why did you choose ableton?

Why did you choose ableton?

Got the free version with a keyboard long ago; got a good deal on the Suite and just stayed with it; also have a Push 2

Need to upgrade to Live 12 though.

I need a new DAW for my new computer.

I use Samplitude currently on old computer.......

BUT

Would totally be cool with a free DAW as long as it is good.

Any thoughts on this one????

This doesn't look good:

I've heard it's kind of shitty but no experience myself

Luna has potential. Since I'm not a mixing engineer but a musician with a focus on MIDI, I can't use it right now, but as soon as the mentioned Cons are worked on, I'll have a look at it again.

I think you need a UA interface to make this DAW make sense.

Reaper

I am seeing that many DAWs are going subscription.....they can ram that up their arses.

Reaper is looking like the only reasonable solution.

 

[rsm]

so Ableton Live hasn't gone subscription only

 

[Monkey Man]

Neither has Digital Performer.

I use Luna on my Mac. I’ve had good experiences with it, as it integrates really well with my UAD hardware.

No idea about Windows though. A thing to keep in mind is that all the UAD hardware is only useable with Thunderbolt. That’s a no-go with most Windows machines. Not worth the time and effort and what I think is a truckload of trouble shooting.

If I was on Windows, I’d give it a pass and look into something like Cubase.
