People who run/use multiple DAWs...
remind me of the time when I was writing software for four customers simultaneously: 1. In COBOL 2. In Fortran 3. In Basic 4. In Dbase IV

I had forgotten all about Dbase IV.
 In order, then, to discover the limit of deepest tones, it is necessary not only to produce very violent agitations in the air but to give these the form of simple pendular vibrations. - Hermann von Helmholtz, predicting the role of the electric bassist in 1877.

So, who are you looking for? People who run or people who use multiple DAW's? My list of simultaneous programming languages was pretty sick once - now I'm spending all my time trying to learn all the new acronyms that exist! Evidently, "BI Development" has nothing to do with homosexuality...

CoBOL (anyone remember what the acronym stood for? Common Buisiness Oriented Launguage) Fortran IV then BASIC (and subsequently Q-Basic) then C then Assembler a little Machine Language a little bit of Perl a lot of MS Access then some C+ then Labview & Matlab in the last 14 years I've done Labview extensively, a little C++ and a glimmer of ADA.

I was the guy who came in and repaired your punch card loader after you spilled taco sauce into it. I was never a COBOL or FORTRAN programmer, but I had to know both because I dealt with them in my job as a support analyst, telling the COBOL and FORTRAN coders what they were doing wrong. I kinda liked FORTRAN, actually, but never pursued it because no two compiler vendors could agree on the language specifics. Plus a decent FORTRAN compiler for my Apple ][ was four hundred bucks. I had the good fortune to have compilers for every language under the sun on my work computers, though, allowing me to at least dabble in all of them. LISP - ugh. It could only have been invented by government workers (it was). My world changed when I got to the C language. Woo hoo! I bought a book written for VAX users, but every example ran on both my Apple ][ and work systems unmodified. Someday, I said, everybody will be coding in C. Little did I know, it would have a bastard child named Java that would take over the world.
 All else is in doubt, so this is the truth I cling to. My Stuff

Someday I guess I'll have to learn Java... I remember one on the IBM machines called PL/I which was a hybrid between COBOL and Fortran. It was pretty cool! If you want to know just how crazy I could code when I absolutely had to ('cause no one in their right mind would ever want to do this): I made a completely functional. full screen editor entirely in COBOL! I tried hard to make the dipstick requesting it know what a plum stupid idea it was but to no avail. I actually had two co-workers put a listing of the code on their walls in my honor - lol! As for C, I really don't miss triple-dereferenced pointers in three-tiered client-server systems... ***Yuck!

I have a soft spot for LISP (or to be exact, Scheme) ever since I watched the MIT "Structure and Interpretation Of Computer Programs" course online a few years ago. It just seemed fascinating and magical to me, although I can't imagine developing anything serious with it. As a theoretical vehicle though it was perfect for the course. Great videos, I would recommend them to anyone. I really love C though. At various points in my life I've dabbled with BASIC, 6502 assembly, AMOS, C, C++, Java and Python and I think C is my favorite. There is just something so awesomely pure about it. In fact when I wrote a small program in Python to help me with my business a few years ago, it worked perfectly but I felt deeply unsatisfied for some reason. Turns out I really wanted to write it in C, so I did. It used linked lists of linked lists and everything, and I was so chuffed with myself. I still use it to this day. I learned C on the New York Subway, carrying around "C Primer Plus" by Stephen Prata and reading it on noisy trains in 5 minute chunks as I traveled around for work. Then when I got home later, I'd try out the things I'd read on the computer. Strangely enough I found it easier to learn this way than by sitting in front of the computer with a book. Go figure.

I still remember the jokes about LISP: More parenthesis than actual code! LOL. My fun little "extra" when I wrote assembly programs was to embed Shakespeare quotes in the line continuation area (that one character area on the far right that doesn't usually show - you simply put any character there if you needed to indicate that the command continues on the next line). I'm still pissed off with RPG3, it was the only class that I didn't get an A in during college and only because I was docked points when I forgot to delete my code from the hard drive once the lessons were finished! Heck, I'm feeling a bit burnt even now just recalling it! Heh...

6502! That little chip and I had a very tight relationship for a few years. The first CPU that was actually fun to program. I didn't even have an assembler at first, punching in machine code and figuring out jump offsets with pad and paper long into the night. I still remember some of the instruction set to this day. When I moved over to the 8088 I wondered what those guys at Intel were smokin'. Virtual memory? WTF! Nobody will ever need more than 64KB of RAM!

Same here, couldn't afford the C64 assembler cartridge on my pocket money so I would write programs on paper, convert them to hex and then to decimal to load into memory via POKE instructions. Not surprisingly, I never managed anything but the most rudimentary of programs.

Not too long ago I had as a client the famed video game legend Richard Garriott who was responsible for the Ultima series of games during the 80's (and who went on to finance his own trip into space a few years ago). I was talking to him about programming one day and he told me he never learned C and wrote the Ultima titles in BASIC. I'm presuming they were subsequently compiled but it was still a surprise to me to realize that you could create a commercial game release with it. Personally I could never get to grips with using line numbers and all those GOTO's.
