So I go to the Izotope web site to get my Ozone 5 offline authorization and watch a few of their short videos while I'm there.
The narrator kept saying "D. A. W." and not Daw.
Have I been wrong all these years?
I mean about how to pronounce DAW.
Is it an acronym or is it initials?
Nevertheless, I'm going to continue saying it so it rhymes with saw until the D. A. W. police come and drag me away.

Digital Audio Workstation.

It's a load of bollocks really - it's a computer with music software and some cables and stuff sticking out of it.

Is it an acronym or is it initials? 

And the difference between those two options is?...

IBM= initials. I suppose someone could pronounce it ibem, but most folks say 'IBM'.
NASCAR= acronym, a "usually pronouncable word made from the initials of other words", Oxford Desk Dictionary and Thesaurus, American Edition, copyright 1997.

There is no right or wrong. I hear as many say "Daw" as I do say D.A.W. It's the same with ASIO. Some say A.S.I.O....others literally pronounce it "ah-zio". For what it's worth, I say Daw and A.S.I.O. :)

....and if you're in a hurry, just say DAWSIO.

I usually say D.A.W . All this time I thought that A.S.I.O was pronounced ASSIO or AZZIO. Oh well.

I say DAW Mooch says po-tay-toe.
