I went ahead upgraded as a hopeful replacement to Cubase, since a lot of the issues with plugins in Waveform have been corrected, at least on the mac. Waveform on windows had issues with plugin scaling on v11. However it's one of the few daws that inspires me to actually write and get songs done. I love the way it handles plugins and the arranger in a single window, without the need to switch between an inspector or mixer window. And also the new video options are right up there with Cubase. I wouldn't use Waveform for mixing though, for that I may use Reaper.
