I work for an agency called the Foreign Agricultural Service. Internally, we call it "eff-a-ess." We often get get contractors hawking their services to us. Almost invariably, they call it "Fass" or "Fazz." This annoys us to the point of wanting to throw ashtrays at them, except there's no smoking, so no ashtrays are avaialable.
Anyway, I call it a "daw," as in "DAWN® Dish Washing Liquid" without the "N."

I say daw as in the Russian word for yes. It takes too long to say D.A.W.

"Music prog" as opposed to "Synth prog".
Digital Audio Workstation or DAW seems pedantic, maybe it's initiatic because you're going to encounter more mouthfuls when grappling with terminology, should you proceed further.

I use both but DAW (Door) the majority of the time.
I came up with a joke:-
When is a daw not a daw?
When it's Reason lol!
The next poll - which term do you use:-
VST
Plug-In
Soft Synth

Same here, and it seems pretty much an industry standard according to those I work with (both in the studio and in the music press).jonheal wrote:I work for an agency called the Foreign Agricultural Service.

I said DAW once, and felt embarrassed. So now I say DEE-AYE-DOUBLE-YOU
DAW sounds kinda weird.

I say "dee-aa-double you" because saying "dah" makes me sounds like a moron.
I don't need any help with that.

Going from Digital Audio Workstation (a cumbersome 9 syllables) to DEE AYE DUB BLE YOU (five) is somewhat of a lame savings of syllables. If it was like VST, LSD. FBI (3), I'd feel somewhat comfortable rolling that off my tongue.
Dropping down to ONE syllable is the Holy Grail, however, so you know how I voted.
