Okay, DAW integration for those who want it, but why? I just find DAW a nuisance (that is one of the reasons I like Pianoteq, since it does not require a DAW or some other krappy software like kontakt), but even if one uses a DAW and enjoys it, a Audio-to-MIDI project is a one-off thing, I think, and you don&#039;t need a DAW for that. Well, I guess you could use Audio-to-MIDI to get MIDI of a singer or of an acoustic instrument and play that live with accompaniment generated from the MIDI. Maybe. One. Day.
