for composition - cubase cause the midi is superb.
for mixing it has to be pro tools cause its just pro. routing, rtas plugins, audio editing etc.
i admit the engine could be a bit more optimised but with audio editing like that i can forgive a few minor grumbles.
also McDSP plugins.. nuff said.

Has to be Ableton really.
It has such versatility and depth now, all rolled up with a fast flow work ethic and some lovely tricks.
I make all sorts with it. Dubstep, Darkstep, Techno, House, Drum and Bass, soundtrack stuff.
Wavelab for mastering.
And tape of course.I am not here but my ghost still lingers

Ableton for me as well for my work flow nothing even comes close to providing what it does.

ableton. it's designed for this type of music, and it shows.

FL Studio because it suits my workflow. I also use ableton now and again for certain things but mostly FL. I find i can get things done quickly and easily within FL's environment which is an important factor for me.

Am trying to replace cubase with ableton. Its a painful annoying process, but ultimately there seems to be more mileage in ableton for what I want to do.

Cubase for me, have been using it for years now.
I have been using Ableton for things too.

FL studio v9 prod edition.
so simple and intuitive and when running it barely troubles the cpu.
can knock together a few ideas in a matter of minutes.
