I agree with those who suggest avoiding ProTools and focusing (especially at the beginning) on your writing. Imagine how much people uses mixing desks (hardware) and how many just pure workstations. with home studios or small studios, and no one invest in their product. You know why? Because more and more people invest in Cubase, Live, etc. Now, these days, Avid (Digi Design) realized that you can do mastering even in Adobe Audition and they updated version of all-mighty PT to support any sound card. It was software specialized for studios etc. That time you have to buy dedicated sound-cards just for PT, because PT was unable to work without M-Audio, Digi Design, etc. It's just a same tool as any other but with different skin and different learning curve.Īnd who said that PT is best tool for mastering and mixing? This idea is from era of mixing desks provided by Digi Design. With Cubase you will not become better producer, neither PT. I would suggest to you this, learn and master your (one) tool and spread your ideas over orchestrating instead of floating over sequencer wars. It's just a little difference in some aspects, for example Cubase has articulation manager, other software not, but what if you like separate articulations on separate channels then you can garbage articulation manager functionality. You cannot do something more in Cubase then you can do with PT or FL Studio in overall. it's just a personal taste and deepth of wallet. Many serious composers uses PT, many Cubase, many Logic, many Reaper.

Actually you can score in FL studio as well At the end it's just a tool, and if you are Ninja in FL Studio then why not stay with FL Studio.

What is cubase good for
