Listen to the man , he speaks the truth...... Honestly PRO is a complete and elegant DAW for any musician, Artist and Prime are just the teasers. useful ime sure in certain situations but not as a complete Radio and Streaming and Full Production Audio recording studio. SI pro is well worth the money. I produced several albums worth of material that is as good sonically as anything from a major label. I USE EZD2 with all EXPANSIONS and its works fabulously as a VST PLUG in stereo or track by track.
