CTW DJs Tony P Posted April 7, 2003 CTW DJs Share Posted April 7, 2003 help????? anyone got any manuals? or know where to download? are these any good for producing hard dance?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTW DJs LiamStyles Posted April 7, 2003 CTW DJs Share Posted April 7, 2003 Personally i prefer cubase. Not sure where you can download the manual from try wwww.steinberg.com The manual is quite baffling tho! There are loads of books for beginners on cubase. I bought one and found it a great help. Will dig you out a link Quote LiamStyles Bet you look good on the dancefloor *LiamStyles - mixes on rotation* Current mix "No Concept Of Time" CLICK HERE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTW Members Blink Posted April 7, 2003 CTW Members Share Posted April 7, 2003 (edited) That is just the kit I am running, Cubase and Reason. I love them both. Reason has the advantage of being all-in-one, self contained, whereas with Cubase, you have to buy every additional softsynth you want (as a basic package, it is just a midi/audio sequencing package, but you can add in VST instruments and effects). The disadvantage with Reason is that it is self-contained, so you can't add in extra instruments (unless you go the sample route). You can run the two in unison, using Rewire, and get the best of all worlds. (As long as your bank balance and PC Power can handle it). I believe you can download a demo of reason from www.propellerheads.se (or it may be .com) Edited April 7, 2003 by Blink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTW DJs Tony P Posted April 7, 2003 Author CTW DJs Share Posted April 7, 2003 cheers Guys. i've actually got copies of reason and cubase ready to use. Had a quick look at them last night as just looked a bit baffling at a first glance. But i'm sure it wont take me long to get started. Will probably be bugging you both with stupid questions soon though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CTW DJs LittleMissLoud Posted April 8, 2003 CTW DJs Share Posted April 8, 2003 Maybe it's cos I'm dreadful at computers, but I think actually getting to grips with them is [censored] hard, and I'm only just picking up the basics. In theory they are simple, but with all the plug-ins you can get, they are increasingly more complicated. Bk uses logic, and I've had a quick look at this round my mate's house, and it looks quite user friendly. This is just my maybe not very well educated opinion though! Quote I'M HUNGRY!

CTW Members Blink Posted April 8, 2003 CTW Members Share Posted April 8, 2003 I think it is just whatever you are used to, I learnt on Cubase, and I love it, find it fairly user friendly, so have never really looked at Logic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTW Members Agent Posted April 8, 2003 CTW Members Share Posted April 8, 2003 I like reason because it is 'lite' on my pc prossesing power, i can have loads of subtractor synths running with loads of effects and not worry about my pc crashing, with cubase it is all about vst and i find them to hungry for the pc resources.. A few more good production sites site1 site 2 Computer music Futuremusic Good site with loads of reason links Quote My new tune - Acid Test Read the CTW music news HERE DJ collapses after World record attempt "Dont u think its about time you grew up?"
