E-magics Logic just cant touch Cubase, for the simple fact Steinberg set trends and E-magic follow them. Whats everyone else think?? whats your best sequencer and why??

Im suprised you havnt mentioned Acid Pro which has gotta be the best tool for Remixing there has ever been... Nick

Rewire for Cubase, nuff said. The only things Emagic have done better then steinberg is the hardware controller and I dont use one, so Im not bothered. Also Cubase loves to crash, but if you save your work every now and again that wont be a problem. Also if you dont think Halion is the best Soft sampler, what is??? And Steinberg do set the trends and Emagic do just follow them and dont make me have to bring up examples

SoundBoy The Specialist Join Date: Mar 2002 Posts: 34	I havent used Acid Pro ever so I couldnt really put that in, Ive seen it being used but you cant really tell how good a program is just by watching. yeah i know what you mean about fruityloops and writers block, fruity loops is is heavy for drums, I dont really use fruity for anything else. I think reason is better then Fruity it just takes time to get use to the set-up, I think Reason is designed with people who worked with analogue hardware and all that in mind. Cuz wiring up equipment digitally just didnt do it for me but the results you get with reason can be heavy. Cant wait for the update Ne ways, ive said enuff

vst instruments dont run well with logic this is how i know your talking out of your $$$$$ crease (im not gonna use any examples cos if u dont know im not gonna educate u!) before u make bold statements think about wot u r saying cos u will make yourself look foolish. halion is good yes but have u not used the exsp24 tight with logic built for logic and runs criss with logic is that something u can say about halion.

your sequencer does depend on wot your using (externally or internally).

SoundBoy The Specialist Join Date: Mar 2002 Posts: 34	its a known fact Cubase works better with Vsts then any other sequener for the simple fact Steinberg designed the format and they didnt make it easy for emagic to implement into their sequencer and that isnt an opinion that is a fact, so before you start trading insults defending your sequencer, check your facts and about Halion being the best soft sampler, that is my opinion and Im sure theres millions of people out there who share the same one

General Midi Registered User Join Date: Feb 2002 Posts: 100	pro tools is way out of the reach and needs of most people great if ya got a studio like yaself/but even then the only real difference is the rock solid timing involved with tools and probably the far superior quality of the plugins .. But unless you got big time sponsorship from someone loaded not nessecary really is it mate? and as my mate down the road(who runs a very biz studio) says in this league its more for the self indulgent best o Luck Nick Last edited by General Midi : 17-03-2002 at 09:23 PM.

FrankieP Registered User Join Date: Mar 2002 Posts: 130	here we go again... bet you guys this thread is gonna end up with a Pro Tools vs Nuendo, Cubase vs Logic, Fruity vs Reason, Kramer vs Kramer debate. LOL... people can be so passionate with their tools... use what you think is best for you, I know a guy who's churning out tunes with just an mpc and a jv! Anyway, I use Nuendo, Cubase VST32/5.1 and Reason.

DJ Fat Zed Analogue Join Date: Feb 2002 Posts: 543	DP is great, but I think the most versatile producers use anything. I teach students on logic, cubase, DP and protools. Having looked at all of them, 99% of what they do is the same, it's like the difference between having a chicken sandwich on brown, white, granary or a baguette; they're just presented in a different way. If you can use all of them, then you can get the most out of your talents, not out of the sequencer.

JJ Guest Posts: n/a	when you talk about them 99% being all the same, i take it that you are talking about front end graphical interface rather than the back end of the sequencers infrastructure.

SoundBoy The Specialist Join Date: Mar 2002 Posts: 34	Yeah I agree with Fat Zed, they all set out to let you produce a song with the utilities provided and each of the main sequencers enable you to that, they just go about it in different ways. SO what about Sonar DJ Fat Zed what do you think of that???

I think the best piece of music software to come out in ages is Celemony Melodyne. Have a go, it'll blow you away...........
