    What Midi Sequencer do you use?

    in Music Making and Production/Industry

    Posted

    I was wondering what kind of Midi Sequencer people here at the board are using. I use Cubase SX 2, and I feel that it is very untight. I have a M-Audio midisport 2x2 for midi.

     

    I use a M-Audio Firewire 410 Audiocard, since its firewire and I only produce on the laptop.

     

    I am thinking of switching over to another sequencer, and leave Cubase behind once and for all.

     

    What do you people use? Any sequencer that you prefer? I need to use Midi, not audio, that is not important (Well, I use audio too, but there are always workarounds).

     

    I used Logic Audio for a very long time, but since they stopped developing for PC, I have left it totally. I wish there was one out there that was as tight as that. And yes I know, I should get myself a MAC, but that is not in the budget just yet ;)

    If you got the latest version of Cubase 2 you should be fine...

    I used the same 2x2 box and I have not much latency at all

    Make sure you get the newest drivers for it.

    LIVE is a good option as well.

    1. SOUNDAHOLIX - REVOLUTION OF THE MIND

    this one opens with quite a deep approach... very deep bassline... good for

    night...

    2.EARTHLING & BUSHMAN - WAKING LIFE

    this one is progressing more into a fluffy... coming out of the night... really

    nice work on this one... I am looking forward to some new Bushman...

    this was also featured on new indian label Third Eye Records.

    3.JUVENILE & CYRUS the VIRUS - FORBIDDEN PLANET

    this one has a nice feel to it... i really like the synth sounds in this one...

    i looking forward to both thier new releases

    4.WIZZY NOISE - TROPIC REMEDY

    i like some wizzy.. but this track wasnt much my style.. maybe too tribal.. i

    think it will grow on me with time

    5.GMS & SPACE TRIBE - ALTERNATE FUTURE

    its nice to see gms colaborate with a pioneer in goa trance... seems like they

    are geting in touch with thier roots maybe this track is very suprising...not

    the typical GMS...

    6.ALTERNATE VISION - OUT OF THE LOOP

    this is a good floor filler... i believe there was a mixup with the name of

    this track

    7.GMS & D-TEK - LOS DERADOS

    hehe... what can i say this one is just really amazing... i love those

    samples...

    8.DINO PSARAS - THANK YOU FOR CALLING

    ok this is a very nice idea.. but comon.. its a bit too cheezy for me... good

    effort.. its nice to hear once or twice but too many times

    9.GMS & ANTIDOTE - POWER SURGE

    this one is very groovy.. nice outcome fro this colaboration...

    10.DYNAMIC - OVNI

    this one suprised me.. they got some cool sounds and fx and nice sample

     

    All in all.. i think this is a pretty good release...

    My fav are #2,3,5,7,9,10

    SPUN crew did it again... Thanks for this good music and keep up.. lots of more

    goodies coming.. including remixes and albums of killer artists!

    This is a killer album... Its very well blended psytrance... not the typical

    full on... it varies from some nice progressive to full on... Its an excellent

    buy... some tracks have MAJOR amounts of FUNK.. I would say the funk factor is

    rather high... all groove... some killer ones here... 75% of the album normal

    person will like.. gauranteed... :)

    Over here we got some quality music.. I recon this is one of the best releases

    in the early months of this year. Top notch acts with top notch music. With a

    little combination of all.. you will hear some full on, progressive and

    melodic stuff in here... its got subtle combination and mixture of some groovy

    styles...

    First track is a collaboration between Dual Head = Pixel and Domestic and

    Wrecked Machines/ a Brazillian act. the outcome is excellent... next up is

    none other than Psysex... this track was previousy released in a compilation

    which was released in Japan only.. now is the chance to hear this gem. track

    3.. Sub 6 just blows my mind every time I hear thier track... this one is very

    groovy.. such a diffrent style.. very laidback..almost dub/trance...very well

    blended... Probably my Fav on here...Cosma.. RIP got a very nice full on

    morning track here..Domestic's track here is nice.. after long time we finally

    get a domestic track...Atomic Pulse track is nice..similar style to most..

    morning full on... then up next is a collaboration between Pixel and Cyclic =

    1/2 of Gorlation Corporation...intresting work here... very well blended...

    Another one of my favs....Track 8 .. Panick.. his style is very unique and he

    is very talented.. this track is groovy towards the end..watch out for his

    full lenght album SooN! this CD closes with a rmx to a very known track which

    stomped all the floors... well Done boys!... This is truly a good release from

    ComPact! Keep Up!

    I suggest you buy it :)

    Deifnatly a fine compilation from HomMega, The cover has actually the real

    waveforms of the track. Almost all of these tracks are killers... Highlights

    1,3,6,7, and 9.

    This Infected Musroom track is definatly influenced by 80s eletronic music...

    V/A - Kamaflage 2

    One of the best releases in this style...

    Psy House.. Dragonfly has really taken it to another level! Highly recomended

    for people looking for a more mainstream approach to trance.

    GMS - No Rules

    in 2002

    This album is one of the best of 2002...

    Clean cut and very well produced...

    Bansi and Riktam have done it again... this time the formula is on!

    V/A - Non-Toxic Frequencies

    This compilation is great if your into minimal/progressive... Most of the

    tracks take very long to build up.. great cd if your a warm up dj.. It doesnt

    consist of any Full ON... Its the typical minimal sound of today... I dig this

    album, but nowdays Im more into full on/psy...

    V/A - Electronic High 2

    in 2002

    Posted

    This CD has some full on music...

    The GMS Vs Alien Project just kills.. it has a same sample as PsySex track

    "Buckle Up Back There, We're going into HyperActive" Nice to hear some KoxBox

    as well,

    and The logic bomb is in thier typical style which they do very well.. This cd

    is really worth it...

    Yahel - Private Collection

    This Cd I hear to be very excellent...Maybe you should give it a second listen,

    I am looking forward in hearing it,

    I hear its not so cheezy, but excellent production...

    I have always loved yahel´s melodies and uplifting trance
