CTW Members Rob D Posted November 13, 2003 CTW Members Share Posted November 13, 2003 I found out about Steinberg from somebody in the know, though they shot themselves in the foot by issuing the first crack for cubase sx. If you look at their sales and profits they are low sales and losses not profits. How many people can honestly say they bought their copy of cubase? As a consequence they are going under. So really for a serious sequencer the options are limited - like buy a mac and get logic or pro tools.

(not in anger anyway) Well, I stick up for Fruity and I can use, and know Logic, Cubase and ProTools inside-out. Fruity is a dream to work with if your making danc emusic...if you're recording bands etc then Protools is the way to go....if u can be aresed sheeling out for the hardware.... Just stick to whatever works for you, and stop slagging of other applications. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just stick to whatever works for you, and stop slagging of other applications. mate i can honestly say you don't know logic inside out. I've got a mate that teach logic in a college and knows the software amazingly well and still find new things out all the time with it. that statement to me is just a load of bollox as it makes you out to not actually know much about those sequencers in my eyes to make such a statement. The reason you think fruity is a dream is because that's how you prefer it. that's the only reason why, it's the only reason anyone chooses a piece of software of another. but can you honestly say that if we asked a lot of people in the industry they will say that fruity is better??? I mean if it was why isn't fruity the big piece of software and logic, cubase and protools not? fruity is really new compared to the other sequencers and is improving on every release. but it just doesn't cut the mustard at the moment. you can get some pretty good tracks out of it, but it just doesn't compare to the other sequencers in it's abilities.

CTW Members LiquidEyes Posted November 14, 2003 CTW Members Share Posted November 14, 2003 Nobody's disputing that you can make good music with Fruity. What I am disputing is idiots who make comments like "what can you do in other sequencers that you can't do in Fruity? Nothing!" I.e. just because they are happy with FL's feature compromise, they think everybody else should be too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a joke to compare them. It's like comparing a sports car to a juggernaut: FL may be very slick and fun to use, but it is nowhere near as feature-packed as Cubase. FL is basically a loop-editing tool, that has been slightly extended over the last couple of years into a half-baked sequencing package. Cubase & Logic were designed as complete virtual studios, to enable simultaneous recording/playback of multiple audio tracks, and MIDI arrangement. E.g. for recording & producing bands etc. Summed up nicely. Slam dunk. So whats your views on the sequencers.. ie ur reasons for agreeing? kev, please explain mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CTW DJs DJ Elemental Posted November 14, 2003 CTW DJs Share Posted November 14, 2003 meaning that its cheap easy to use commerical software - which in ways is a good thing - i used fuityloops myself for a while. I suppose like any other application in the hands of a adveranced \ professional producer, fruityloops can be used to its full advatages but in the hands of a say a 14 year old its just bunging out [censored]. There was a case in pembrokeshire not so long ago where a boy had made a dance track using fruitloops which in all honesty was abit poo - but hey the lad had never made a choon before in his life - but it was signed by a commerical label - dunno which i'll have to dig the old telegraph out. Point is - i think the fruityloops basics are too basis which is why i associate it as a kiddies toy like dance ejay or what ever. Give a kid something like logic and the manual alone will scare them off Quote http://bos.abavagada.net/oddfiles/djelementalonline.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You judge a program by its results. And I've heard some pretty [censored]-hot stuff come out of Fruity. If it is easy to use, then even better!

I didn't say Fruity was better than the others Ok, fair enough, I may not know every ickle bit of "all" the appz, but I'd say that I'm pretty well tuned up since SAE's beaten every ounce of knowledge about those sequencers into my tiny little mind in the Audio Engineering diploma.....
