If it is personal choice, then I am partial to Ardour / Harrison Mixbus. I like how the DAW spans two monitors if you want and it looks slick. Yes, sure, documentation is sorely lacking and it has bugs like good luck trying to import video. But I know a lot of keyboard shortcuts and it feels quite comfortable relative to other DAW's. It works best on Linux, using it on Windows is generally bad news in my experience. The DAW also looks quite nice. The user interface could always be improved, there are a lot of features that I did not know existed until I really had to look out of necessity. I have a few DAW's that I use, based on need, like Reaper, Samplitude, Acid Pro, ReNoise, etc., but Ardour / Mixbus always feels like home. You can get Ardour for free or almost free and Mixbus you can get as low as $25.00 on a sale. Mixbus 32C, a bit costlier, but worth it if it suits your needs. When I had no money, Ardour was a great place to go.
