My favourite DAW
I literally cannot use anything else. The drag and drop workflow is smooth, the built-in synths/samples are great and it's not too expensive either.

Best way to go
By far one of the best out there. Take Logic, Protools, Garageband, ext, and stick them together. You get Studio One 3. Everything you love, and a nice professional look (well it is professional)!

Wanna hear your thoughts on it. Interesting to see where and how it fits in with the other big DAWs.

Studio One was first written by Wolfgang Kundrus (an early developer for Cubase & the primary author/developer of Nuendo) & Matthias Juwan (the guy who wrote the VST3 spec) as part of KristalLabs Software Ltd (the "K" logo for Studio One is a tribute to them). PreSonus later bought them out & started releasing their product as Studio One.
Thus, Studio One & Cubase have a lot in common (e.g. shortcuts, UI/UX elements, etc)
