However, when I first started out with computer-based recording, I was using the &#8220;consumer&#8221; version of Samplitude, which is now known as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.magix.com\/us\/music\/samplitude\/samplitude-music-studio\/?AffiliateID=55&#038;phash=FL4Wje1syXqv4BCf&#038;utm_source=MAGIX-PAP&#038;utm_medium=Affiliate&#038;utm_campaign=Affiliate_MAGIX-PAP&#038;a_aid=4fcced3359871\">Samplitude Music Studio<\/a>. If you&#8217;re interested, I wrote a series of articles about the evolution of the consumer version of Samplitude, the first of which you can find by <a href=\"http:\/\/silentsky.net\/wordpress\/archives\/161\">clicking here<\/a>. <!--more--><\/p>\n<p>In any case, I ran my studio for several years using this &#8220;consumer&#8221; version until eventually upgrading to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.magix.com\/us\/music\/samplitude\/pro-x\/?AffiliateID=55&#038;phash=FL4Wje1syXqv4BCf&#038;utm_source=MAGIX-PAP&#038;utm_medium=Affiliate&#038;utm_campaign=Affiliate_MAGIX-PAP&#038;a_aid=4fcced3359871\">Samplitude Pro X<\/a>, and ultimately to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.magix.com\/us\/music\/samplitude\/suite\/?AffiliateID=55&#038;phash=FL4Wje1syXqv4BCf&#038;utm_source=MAGIX-PAP&#038;utm_medium=Affiliate&#038;utm_campaign=Affiliate_MAGIX-PAP&#038;a_aid=4fcced3359871\">Samplitude Pro X Suite<\/a>. However, over the years I&#8217;ve found Samplitude Music Studio to still be a very capable DAW, and I usually keep the latest version installed on my laptop for less demanding and\/or mobile projects, while keeping the &#8220;pro&#8221; version installed on my studio PC. I&#8217;ve also found that Samplitude Music Studio sometimes includes some goodies (new effects, features, and VST instruments) that haven&#8217;t been added yet to the Pro versions, as it seems that new editions of the consumer version usually get rolled out faster than the pro version.<\/p>\n<p>In conclusion, if you aren&#8217;t happy with your current DAW, would like to take Samplitude for a test-drive for a minimal investment of your money, or are looking to get into computer-based recording, I highly recommend <a href=\"https:\/\/www.magix.com\/us\/music\/samplitude\/samplitude-music-studio\/?AffiliateID=55&#038;phash=FL4Wje1syXqv4BCf&#038;utm_source=MAGIX-PAP&#038;utm_medium=Affiliate&#038;utm_campaign=Affiliate_MAGIX-PAP&#038;a_aid=4fcced3359871\">Samplitude Music Studio<\/a>. Samplitude Music Studio can also be used as an &#8220;upgrade path&#8221; for the pro versions, which give you a hefty discount should you choose to upgrade on down the line. And until May 13, 2020, Magix is running a 50% off sale, so you can purchase Samplitude Music Studio for only $49.99. That&#8217;s normally the price it would cost you to upgrade, so you&#8217;re getting a new purchase license for the cost of the upgrade.
