Top notch DAW Studio One is THE way to go especially if you prefer arranging and multi mixing/recording your own stuff and in this respect beats the likes of Ableton Live hands down!! Too many awesome features to list here! With the newly updated version, Studio One is faster than ever and loads/performs at lightning speed. An excellent set of instruments and notes FX etc is also included and its really well worth getting the professional version for these extra features. I'll certainly be using this DAW more often than i have done in the past!!
Studio One Artist and Professional are available direct from both PreSonus and music retail shops worldwide as both upgrades and full versions. Both Artist and Professional come as standard download versions, and can also be purchased with the entire program on an exclusive limited edition 64 GB USB flash drive.

At every step of the musical process, you’ll spend your time creating music instead of fighting a bloated interface. And the sound quality? Well, simply put, it’s unparalleled. In fact, the most common comments from musicians, producers and engineers who have switched to Studio One are “I can just get things done faster” and “Studio One just sounds better.” Let’s find out why.
