I'm a Magix Samplitude Pro X3 Suite user, it's really not easy to use but has a load of features and the same engine from the Broadcast quality DAW called Sequoia. I'm only using about 20% of what it can do, but that's cool as I know it should do it if i need to in future.
I don't know anything about any other DAW, so I can't comment on them. I like the way one can wave edit an object in SoundForge directly from the DAW.
Made in Germany so it's well thought through, albeit the manual is pretty hard to understand, and absolutely humungous (3 big Ring binder folders), There's a guy on YouTube called Kraznet, who has done loads of helpful videos, so I learned a lot from him.
Nice mastering setup too.
Would recommend a load of RAM and a big SSD
