Would anyone be willing to lay out their experiences with DAWs? Preferably free ones? I tried waveform, but I’m thinking I’m going to use Cakewalk. A lot of people say Reaper, but the UI seems lackluster. What do yo think?

I use Ardour on Linux. Everything works pretty great for me. I use the LSP plugins which provide all the basic for free like eq and compression. Then I use Airwindows plugins for all the fun distortion is reverb and color. If ya need a free soft synth I’d use surgeXT it’s all ya need.
I mainly record Audio in from synthesizers and real instruments. I also accepted that none of my old windows VTSs would easily work on Linux, so I didn’t try to port them. Though I hear folks have had some success with running them in a comparability layer. I moved from Ableton on Windows to Ardour on Fedora Linux.
All is free, though I personally paid for Ardour cause I like to support projects I use. And $40 is still the cheapest daw around.
