Re: MusicRadar's Best DAW vote

Classic the way he totally misunderstands another person's point (presumably the poor English...) but decides to respond by being rude to them anyway :?

Re: MusicRadar's Best DAW vote

Sure, I get that. What I don't get is why anyone would vote for the SAME programme nine times (or whatever it was he said). That's a mentality that I don't relate to :/ ... but sure, as somebody who uses two of the programmes extensively, I would happily vote for them once each.

Re: MusicRadar's Best DAW vote

Those are great videos that I think really highlight the unique strengths of Live. Given the direction that the thread has taken, some may be interested to see some of the unique - and very, very different - strengths of Reason. For me one of those strengths is the fact that Reason uniquely emulates...

Re: MusicRadar's Best DAW vote

Excuse me again, mr coherence... but just half an hour ago you claimed ableton live is not complete, because it has no MIDI file import/export, no precise automation, no event editing, no comp editing, no 64 bit version, no pitch correction, no CV routing, no analog mixer emulation, etc, etc... And...

Re: MusicRadar's Best DAW vote

I just wonder how can you consider "complete" a software without vst support, midi out and rewire master functions... Unless you consider "music" recording your synths and putting the result (sound) in a reason audio track... Or, worst, try to "emulate" vst synths with...

Re: MusicRadar's Best DAW vote

I do think it is usually "silly and unnecessary" to rewire Reason into Live, because both have reached a stage of completeness where the other isn't necessary. It's possible to finish projects using just Ableton, or using just Reason. However, both are great in their own right, and suitabl...

Re: MusicRadar's Best DAW vote

because every time i go there to see the results, i have to re-vote (since my mac has no cookies, i guess). ... or you could select "view results" ... But this is obvious, since the name "LIVE" suggests you it is a musical software, for LIVE situations, above all. :idea: ...so n...

Re: MusicRadar's Best DAW vote

9V wrote:... just disable cookies... :roll:
But WHY would anyone want to repeatedly vote 9V...? Seriously, WHY are you so bothered? Are you really so insecure about the validity of your own choices that you need to repeatedly vote for them to try and prove yourself right??

Sad.

Re: MusicRadar's Best DAW vote

PROFESSIONAL COMPRESSION: i doubt engineers at Abbey Road compress vocals with Reason :mrgreen: Comp editing (i.e. compiling an edit in comp lanes), not compression!! MIDI FILES: 1) open live 2) drag and drop a midi file into a midi track Nope, that's a CLIP, not a FILE. 3) import tempo and time si...

Re: MusicRadar's Best DAW vote

As I've stated before in this thread, when voting again it displays the message: "Thank you, we have already counted your vote." on the top of the results. This makes me believe that you can only vote once. So no joke there, I'm afraid. This is true, one or two posters aren't apparently r...

Re: MusicRadar's Best DAW vote

I am not a sound engineer, I just want to make music without wasting time on unnecessary things. Surely the piano roll could be improved, but nevertheless is good enough for a fast workflow. Same goes for the automation. It just works. Live might not be the right choice for serious 'producers' and ...

Re: MusicRadar's Best DAW vote

Vst support and Midi-Out are basic functions, essential for a DAW. The rest is not so important. Personal needs. For the professional engineers at Abbey Road, the ability to comp vocals for example is a must. I've always exported and imported midi files with Live, so i don't understand what you mea...

standard midi file import, minute precise automation... but no vst support and midi-out :roll: Or how about... "VST support and midi-out ... but no MIDI file import/export, no precise automation, no event editing, no comp editing, no 64 bit version, no pitch correction, no CV routing, no analo...

Re: MusicRadar's Best DAW vote

This might be true for this special case (which is a rather rare on I guess), but for the vast majority of problems to solve Live is much more powerful than Reason. I gave you quite a specific example, but this is actually symptomatic of a bigger context. Put simply, MIDI editing in Reason is far m...

Re: MusicRadar's Best DAW vote

question!!!! why does Reason users go thru such lenght to defend Reason? could someone please explain... Been meaning to answer this, and finally remembered to get back: 1) When people attack anything, chances are there will be those who will defend it. Note that the attack comes first in this proc...
