It's an amazing DAW for beginners on a budget. A couple issues though. First, the ads are a bit too intrusive. It gets old sitting though an unstoppable ad every time I want to open the studio. Second, if I exit a sample pack and go back, it doesn't stay in the pack forcing me to search for it all over again. Finally, I started using BandLab because I was tired of features and plugins being blocked behind a paywall. It has become a much less enjoyable experience seeing this change in BandLab.

Everything works great except for one tiny little thing; Used this for two hours building a drum track for something I recorded on guitar. everything sounded great. bumped the back button and a prompt popped up saying I was closing the project and asking if I'd like to save. "Oh my yes, good idea, I haven't saved since I started!" I select the save option *big dialogue box pops up, "saving"* Back at the menu I go to my projects.. Empty except for the test I made before starting.

Sorry to hear your project didn't save, Kory. A stable and reliable internet connection is crucial to avoid problems when saving your project. Don't worry, you'd be able to catch that lightning again.

it is really really fun and easy to use. I use it to record metal songs and stuff like that and it works really well. I like the drum machine because I don't play drums. the only thing it needs is more time signatures. it currently doesn't have 7/8 time signatures and that makes it hard to record a lot of my guitar riffs that would be in 7/8. so PLEASE ADD 7/8 PLEEEASE. other than that, I'm happy with it.
