Well my musical notepad is Reason 2.5, i find it easier to put all my ideas into that so thats what I voted for. However I sometimes use Cubase SX and have layed a few tracks in Logic also.

At this stage in the preceedings I’d like to thank you all from the staff for actually being more interested in voting this time around..

One third of views have voted.. ideally we want more – so come on.. keep it up… get active, get involved, keep a forum alive.

FL Studio for all my work. Even mixing, except for sometimes Acid…

Reason all the way. nothing can match its simplicity and power. its has so much to offer if just scratch underneath the surface. IMO still a revolutionary piece of softtware, and the best thing out on the market!

I voted for ACID because that is the software i am currently using and i find it very good! I have never gotten around to give Reason a try, perhaps i shall do so. Is it hard to learn?

well…that depends if you have experience workingwith hardware. its setup to work just like hardware…down to the cables that connect the instruments together.

its medium. it may be easy to those who know about harware/software instruments and effects. and then it might be hard to newbies with no idea of waht to do. thats why lots of newbies go for FL, it seems easier to use…but Reason is the more powerful chosie from a composition point of view.

Ableton Live is the business … I used to use acid a few years ago (that sounds suss, doesn’t it? ) but I’ve found Ableton to be very intuitive and controllable – plus if we ever take our show out live it’ll be a snap to do it.

Long live Ableton!

I use Acid Pro to create simple loop-based remixes. I would like to start to make some more complex tunes, so I interested to find out more about the alternative sequencers and software out there…

I just started using Ableton Live as my main sequencer and I couldn’t be happier, I will be starting live shows with it later in the year as well.

I use Protools for my sequencer, rewired to Reason 2.5, & Ableton’s Live.

I find this to be the most versitale solution. Fruityloops adds reverb to all its productions and every song comes out sounding twangy. I wish that was not the case becuase I think fruity loops is the most user friendly.

Acid just doesn’t have enough options, it’s to beginner based.

I’m glad I have smart firends cuase I wouldn’t have been able to figure protools out on my own.

Acid, mostly – I’ve tried creating my own stuff (as opposed to mixes and bootlegs) using Buzz, but haven’t got very far.
