My DAW of choice is Samplitude Pro X Suite... but, I also have Presonus S1, Avid Pro Tools ( 8), Sonar PE (8) and Harrison MixBus, so that I can cater to various clients and their preferences.

Samplitude.[/

As for the reasons why, there are far too many to mention here - other than to say I love the Object Based Editing feature; and also because I find Samp's engine to be

don't want to start a debate by that last statement.
Let's just call it a personal observation/preference, based on my own experience with many of the other popular DAW programs I've used over the years, and leave it at that.
