There's a severe lack of DAW descriptions in the wiki. If you're good with your tool of choice, consider writing a paragraph about it.
Learn that Image-Line is going to bring back graph editors eventually, and that you should just buy whatever you fucking want to buy though

Since OP didn't add an edition, how about we make this one "amateur studio" edition?
What's your setup like? What's your dream setup that could actually be in your reach some day?
Which of your equipment has caused you to have the most buyer's remorse?
Post them shitty studios!
Here's mine. I live in a shithole apartment for now, as I save for a house, and produce out of a multi-pistol case that holds everything except for my vocoder.
My typical setup:

Maybe i'll listening to Boces later, that noise pop thing intrigues me.

THIS WEEK'S...

1. This one sounds kind of modern but someone trying to do more of an old school sound. Or maybe it could be a more modern recording that Oscar Peterson did because it sounds like there is loads of technique in there. I kept noticing the drumming so I think the drummer is pretty good but sometimes it sounded like the bass couldn’t really keep up. This one gets 3 stars.
2. Here the recording quality sounds older, maybe more like the 40’s. It’s very beboppy, so I’m guessing it’s Bud Powell since he is my favorite bebop pianist. It’s pretty unbelievable how relentless...

4. Very relaxed and gentle. It sounds like Bill Evans. I really enjoy this kind of thing even though there’s nothing really exciting happening in terms of dynamics or anything like that. It’s something that you can listen to closely with headphones and follow the chords and melody or just put on as background music while you’re doing something else and it works just as well for both things. Maybe some people would say that’s a bad thing but I don’t think it is. 4 stars.
5. I recognize this as a Duke...

7. This one sounds like it might be Monk. He has to be on here somewhere right?? Those chord clusters and short little melodies sound pretty Monkish. It’s pretty cool and the longer it goes on the more I think this is Monk playing something that he wrote. It’s not his best but it was fairly solid. I don’t really have much to say about it other than that. 3.5 stars.
8. Hey I know this one! It’s Stolen Moments by Oliver Nelson. It sounds like a more modern arrangement. I don’t really know too many modern pianists though who play in a more traditional style like this. It is kind of nice to hear this style with good quality recording and I like the deep, rich chords in the arrangement that he does. It sounds like he figured out all the horn parts from the original recording and used that for his voicings. This one was cool. 4 stars.
9. This reminds me of Bobby Timmons or somebody like that where it sounds very old-fashioned bluesy. It was pretty good at the beginning but by the end it seemed like it was getting a little bit repetitive. There were some good blues licks in there and the trio had a nice swing the whole time that was fun to listen to. 3 stars.
10. This one almost sounds classically influenced, like its based on Bach or something like that. But besides Brubeck I don’t know many other pianists who did that sort of thing. I’d probably guess it was Bud Powell if I wasn’t pretty sure that track 2 was Powell. Anyway the pianist had some great technique and seemed very comfortable with playing bebop. This one seemed to stretch on kind of long though and by the time it got to the end I was very ready for it to be over. 3.5 stars.
