Not sure about the latest releases, but the Studio One v1 was written by a bunch of the original Pro Tools developers, and it was really, really good.

It's also way cheaper than PT, and as an added bonus you don't have to deal with Avid, which is second only to adobe regarding anti-consumer practices.

I actually started recording with S1 v1 in my teens because I got it for cheap. After some longer breaks, I kept coming back to it (and buying updates) - it really is good!

Compared with the Ableton workflow my bandmates are using nowadays, I still prefer S1.

I thought it was by some Cubase developers?
IIRC they were from the Presonus side, the original startup they bought as the basis for the sound engine was indeed ex-steinberg people.
