ProTools/Logic vs Cubase etc -

[georginasaint]

Hi all, I had an "interesting" email today from a hit songwriter but I won't say his name. He lives in my town so I asked him some recording advise. He said that Protools is the industry standard and anything else (other than perhaps Logic) is for hobbyists. Is this right? Anyone know of any websites that compare DAWs performance etc? I do know that most recording studios have ProTools. I have Cubase - does that make me a rank amateur?? I have nothing to compare it with. I spoke to a recording engineer who said I could take my Cubase tracks in as WAV files and he could put them into Protools - is this right? Will they line up and all be in time???This songwriter is not a nice person, I have to say, sadly. SO full of himself. He disturbed me. I'm glad he's not a Taxi member. I've had a strange day, what with his email and my next door neighbor being arrested (hurrah!) that's a whole other story. Georgie
