This is the DAW I use. Its a windows only Freeware DAW. Although the workstation's design can be clunky at the beginning its still a really great Piece of software with it's MIDI implementation.

This is my only piece of hardware so far. The Edirol SD-90 came out in the beginning 2000s and was the successor to the Sound Canvas. It has some really interesting sounds that can't be found anywhere else like such as Reed Romance which uses a waveform that is not found on any other hardware.
