Mike Oldfield
Oldfield has self-recorded and produced many of his albums, and played the majority of the instruments that appear on them, largely at his home studios. In the 1990s and 2000s Oldfield has been mainly using DAWs such as Apple Logic Pro, Digidesign Pro Tools and Steinberg Nuendo as recording suites.[18] For composing classical music Oldfield has been quoted as using the software notation program, Sibelius,[6] combined with Apple Macintoshes[19]. In the 1980s Oldfield composed the score for the film The Killing Fields on a Fairlight CMI.[14]
