Great sounding DAW, but stability problems on PC!
The program itself is great, but unfortunately, there are frequent crashes, and the app fails to release the Focusrite driver after closing the DAW—which always leads to a Blue Screen of Death. Please fix this!

You asked
I must say it is a great sounding DAW for sure! Not using it much though.
Trying to buy and install it was rough. I couldn't figure out why the website kept saying I needed to install hardware when I didn't buy any and don't have any. Now when I bought Luna Pro, it doesn't say I got Luna Pro but it says I got Luna. Confusing.
The giant flood of UA plugins was awful. Not clearly marked as to what was free, what was demo, what was necessary. Spent two days trying to figure out all the stuff I didn't get with the free version and how to turn it off on three apps via the plug in managers.
I'm a bit shocked that there is no metering on the master bass that I could find. After all the summing goes through the master buss, there should be a LUFS meter, Loudness meter, other meters that all the other daws have.
Midi is a total disaster. Switched back to Logic for midi within 24 hours. Got a long way to go for Luna to be usable for midi.
Once I disabled all the plugin that you put on my machine that don't work that I haven't paid for, your plugins sound fantastic inside Logic Pro where they are much easier to control than on Luna.
I hope you guys can get some updates out pretty quick....don't know much about how UA is doing but the plugins were a great value for 79 bucks.
Last thing: does UA Connect have to constantly run for the plug ins to work? Very annoying to see it constantly popping up.

Luna pro beginner
I took the plunge from Luna to Luna pro. Very impressed with plugins included , needed to complete mixing from stems. I like the GUI having used Logic as my main DAW. Looking forward to using more and learning. Recommended Daw.
