Maybe they love the DAWs? Like people who play games, they don't play 1 game forever

DAWs are fun, can be some1s hobby.. im on ableton right now, but I might start rewiring my old Reason 4 again, I loved it
Also VSTs are never that stable as built in plugins (at least from my experience, sometimes its an ass to automate such parameters from a vst.. for example I don't know how can you automate some massive parameters like when you have a synced LFO, how do you automate the LFO rate?) Also when you automated some parameters from your vst, you cant seem to mess with it anymore, it cancels audio for me (in most cases) I still need to practice in ableton, anyways if some1 knows the solution feel free to throw it at me!
In reason you just right click on anything and you get the automation lane instantly
