Quick question about Soundforge: can it be used as a multi track editor like Adobe Audition. If it can how do you bring this mode up?

Thanks.

No. But it can be rewired I believe...

for me this is what works and has been working for a while now:

live production --> used to be traktor, but now a JOKE next to ableton live

post production --> soundforge (great for trimming, cutting, pasting, adding effects to sound already created)

"production" production --> FL studio and Cubase (depends which you're more comfortable with)

I dont want this to sound asif im taking you down or anything but by post production you mean editing waveforms and such. By production production you mean sequencing and composing? I wouldnt limit it to cubase and fl. Ableton live is just as good as fl for producing if not better. If you have a mac make sure not to look past Logic.

The whole production and editing has been on my mind for some time too after having been dj'ing now for several years. The learning curves on these softwares are quite intimidating....does anyone know of a cheap, if not free, place to watch video tutorials? If video's are not available, written tutorials are good too, as long as they come recommended by someone who has already benefited. Ableton Live sounds like the one that I would be most interested in but Cubase for production came recommended to me. THanks in advance!!

This is the type of stuff I was originally talking about. Not that I'm either for or against it but what is everyone's opinion? And talking about sequencers what about Pro Tools?

Protools is the most advanced sequencer in my opinion...but is used mainly for recording purposes. That's assuming you have the money for their top-end products tho. As a sequencer for dance music composition...I think it's overly complicated and you are better off with cubase/logic/live. Just my opinion though.

yeah i like to edit my music, not always but sometimes it is appropriate, like adding an extra layer of beats on top of a weak sounding track and just stuff like that to make the mix seem a bit more natural and smoother sounding etc

Originally posted by Aquarian I do this alot. When I burn tracks to CD I usually include the original version first and then an edit that has either completely cut breakdowns or loops and breakbeats layered over them.

Same here. Other times I'll be in love with a track but hate its intro our outro, and end up extending it or toning it down a bit, or whatever the case may be.

I think a lot of folks do this--not only because it can fix something like a ridiculously short intro or remove obnoxious breakdowns, but because it makes their mix even more personal...which is a pretty nice feeling.

I don't like people who make the most insignificant adjustments just for the sake of putting their name all over the tracklist, though. That's tacky.
