System Usage from Most to Least Important:
- Music writing and production. I use Cubase and Ableton. I do composition using samples and mixing. I use usb midi keyboards and other usb midi controllers. I don't record live instrument as of now.
- Photo editing. I use Adobe Lightroom. I shoot with Nikon D750 and I shoot RAW.
- Video editing. I use Adobe Premiere Pro. I only do this about once a year so really low priority.
