Which is better? BandLab or Logic Pro? ... in this video, I see if I can make a banger of a track in BandLab and things don't go quite how I planned.

I am 13 years old and just starting with producing and I think for a beginner (like me) bandlab is very good to start with because it's free and not to hard to use. But if I keep having making music as my hobby in a few years I definetely want to switch to perhaps logic or fl studio of something else.

I feel like BandLab is really great for recording a song instead of making beats but it’s also good for a beginner of producing

It is good for beginners. I have spent two years on there and have upgraded to Cakewalk and I have made some pretty kickass beats with Bandlab. You haven't spent a lot of time on there to really learn it. And to be honest, the mobile version on your phone is better, faster and works easier. Real talk.

Bandlab, for a real artist who's constantly on the move it's great for demos and collaborating with fellow artists who travel the country and perform and are never in the same place at the same time. Birth your ideas into a demo and release it, you can always count on hitting the big studio to re-record remix and remaster. Bandlab is like a notepad for a traveling poet.

As a beginner producer, I use bandlab, and i've made some pretty impressive stuff with it. It may not have much but it helps me keep it simple.

However meh it might be, I feel like Bandlab isn’t made for really advanced stuff and professionals, especially those who are already using software like Logic. To me it feels like Bandlab is an accessible and somewhat basic but still decent software to play around in, collaborate with others and have a bit of fun. My music teacher at school for example says it’s perfect for her younger students to use when composing in the curriculum. Maybe that’s not really a flex, but that’s definitely the type of thing Bandlab aims for and works well at.

If you know what you are doing, an experienced professional can make a great album even with Bandlab. You might have to work a little harder, but it can be done. First off, before doing a compare video, I would suggest for people to actually learn Bandlab, every ins and outs. Nathan obviously did not learn every function of Bandlab. He complained about sounds, but failed to realize that Bandlab has a sampler. He could of created his own instrument sounds, or use other sampled instrument sounds. Secondly, he did not use any of the many tools bandlab has to offer to make the tracks sound better. Bandlab offers EQ, Compression, Reverb, as well as many other affects. Third Nathan failed to use any of the many "sound packs" that are available in Bandlab. Fourth, one of the great things many people overlook about Bandlab is it's collaboration features. Having the ability to share a song that everyone can work on without having to try and find a way to email large track files, etc is a huge advantage. It's as easiy as sharing a google doc project. Lastly, for a free program, Bandlab offers a lot. If you actually take the time to study Bandlab and what it offers, one will realize it is very close to Garageband in capability. Bandlab even offers free mastering. Simply drop your sound file into one of the several categories on the browser link, and Bandlab will master your song. Instead of complaining about Bandlab from the start, Nathan should have actually did his research and learn the browser DAW. Bandlab is a very powerful DAW, and has my respect. Bandlab also offers Sonar Cakewalk DAW for free (PC Window Users). I am a user of Bandlab and Garageband, but my main DAW is Logic Pro X. I know the ins and outs of all 3 DAW. Yes, Bandlab is not as powerful as Logic Pro X, but make no mistake, Bandlab offers a lot of tools to make a professional song. Instead of making a video from the point of view of someone who obviously doesn't know the ins and outs of Bandlab, he should have actually learned every function and capability of Bandlab, and presented a video for producers who are starting out. Any producer who is starting out and does not have money to spend, Bandlab is a very capable DAW to make professional songs. Again, you might have to work a little harder, but it can be done. In conclusion, people be aware of Nathan. This guy loves to make videos dissing on various DAWs and acting like they are toys. He made videos dissing on Garageband like it's a toy, and he is doing the same for Bandlab. Apparently he is too young to realize a time when hard disk recorders were used, and even farther back reel to reel tape. Bandlab has more features and is more powerful tool than reel to reel tape and hard disk recorders, and yet professional albums were and can be made on all 3 medium.

Bandlab is amazing for sketching on the go because you can simply exort the midi and use it in your main daw.
For recording vocals it's actually surprising good for a quick sketch or demo.
And if youre a complete beginner it got a really good AI that will bring will mix up to pro loudness.

but... you can't compare bandlab to logic... logic is a high end software.

I started on BandLab and have been using Logic for a year now so this video definitely hits home

I may be wrong, but I think Cakewalk, which used to be Sonar, is pretty good. This is a version of their "online" DAW which completely different than Cakewalk that you install on your computer. Just saying, that this can be a little misleading to newcomers.

Unfair review going through simple midi instruments presets. What about real instruments audio recording and remote collaboration? That is where bandlab shines.

Seems more like a sound library review than a DAW review. It's not the tool, but how you use it.

''I don't really feel like a pro... producer ryt now, I feel like a loser" & "you probably don't own any because its free! & you're cheap"
really hit deep n personal for us who use Bandlab as our main DAW 😭

I love the idea of BandLab for collaboration. It’s kind of awkward to share songs with logic or GB, in my opinion. I’d love to be proven wrong!
159 |
When composers have an idea, we need to record it imediately. BandLab gives us some air, without replacing Logic, Cubase or Reaper. Again: it's a beginner/prototype tool, and works really well. Just installed it and recorded a blues within 5 minutes, using my desk as drums.It's AMAZING. Will record that on my studio today :)

Was hoping he'd try cakewalk. That's my daw, and it's great for the price (free). It was once a paid daw that costed like 400 dollars but bandlab bought it and made it free

it's an amazing starting software for people making music, especially for people easily intimidated by complexity. One of the best parts of the software is that it's really easy to use on mobile.

bandlab is definitely a decent DAW for being free and online, I started with it 2 years ago and still use it occasionally because of how simple and fun it is. However, it isn't really any kind of end-game or professional DAW. It can, at times, feel like you are working against the software when producing a track, but overall, it gets you where you want to go, I would say.

Comparing Free to $200 is extreme, I think BandLab is fine for starters.
