I'm pretty sure Nick uses Logic, but I could be wrong. A lot of the composers of the demos you hear tend to use Logic, from what I've noticed, but in any event it's not going to be easy to "pick up" sample-based composing. You basically have an extra step to the process: you're not just worried about writing good music, you also have to be able to render it realistically with your samples. EWQLSO saves you a lot of the hassles of mixing (your third step in the process), but that's only a relatively small reduction in work time.
