    Reaper. It has a trial version that can go on indefinitely so there's effectively a free version, only catch is there is a small popup with a short timer. If you want to buy it the price is only $60 which is miles better than the others when I checked but if you're pirating I suppose none of that matters.

    Reaper was the first out of two daws I tried, with the second being Ableton. I found Reaper extremely intuitive to use, I feel like if you're capable of navigating your computer or pretty much any other program then you can easily learn Reaper. A lot of people also like the customization it offers but, real talk, I just use the default theme, never had an issue with it. Most of the in-built bundled plugins are also effective and versatile, if you know the basics of them then you probably won't need much else.

    I tried Ableton after I had a couple of hundred hours in Reaper and it just seemed needlessly convoluted. I can't think of any negatives to Reaper off the top of my head, the one thing I tried to do but couldn't was due to Amplitube rather than the daw.
