Now that macs use the dual core processors, Logic 8 takes advantage of that REALLY nicely. I swear by logic and always recommend it. Ableton is great too - i know loads of people who produce in Logic and then export for live shows in Ableton.

Logic 8 with Reason 4 ReWired just works seamlessly and you have SO MANY synths that way, that you don't need to spend much more. Logic 8 comes with 40gb of samples...omg

Logic used to be around £700 in some shops, but it's nearer to £300 now. If you're a student or work in education (or have friends in either of those...) then check http://www.apple.com/uk/education/shop/

Just gna try and answer Palm's questions:

1) Upon file creation, logic will create a root folder and actually self-copy all your .wavs etc to THAT folder, that you are using in your current tune - The efficiency caught me really off guard. It does this as you go and also when you import .wavs to your Audio Bin.

2) Mac+PC usually = Schools and colleges HATE mac suites coz you need a new server, technician and network for the macs LOL!!!! I use my PC separately and transfer with a USB key. Annoying... BUT you can get some software that lets you install Windows on a mac.

3) Again, this is hard as the network just may not happen - the only way round it may be using an upload service or buying some web space?? Reason files and Refills work on both platforms nicely. No worries there!!!

cheers guys,
Bushi



by Reason rewired, is that a seperate program, or just a plugin? as in, is it like battery 3 that can run by itself, but also works as a VST/AU?
because i'm deffinitly interested, if so
and good reccomendations as well man, who needs more than the 50GB of samples

Reason is another sequencer just like Logic, Cubase, Ableton, Sonar, FL Studio etc etc etc.
Just that you can't use VSTs in it because it's main selling point are it's awesome in built synths. Hence why a lot of people rewire it with other sequencers.

Rewire is a protocol developed by Propellerheads (Reason) and Steinberg (Cubase) so that they could join their programs together. However, it now works on any sequencer combination and should be built in.
