Re: cubase sx3 or ableton live? (help me!!!!!!)

i've heard the real difference between the studio and the pro version. is the amount of plug ins you get with the pro, and some of the things it will do that the lower priced one won't.

^^^^ even for mastering?

Re: cubase sx3 or ableton live? (help me!!!!!!)

the new 7 is supposed to have a whole upgraded sound engine that is supposed to be really freaking good.

And I've mastered my new stuff with live and some plugins and they come out great. So do James Zabiela and many many other producers.

I got myself Cubase 4 , Educational Edition (Cubase 4 with Student Discount!!). Cost me about €450! Friend of mine uses Ableton 6 and dropped down my studio. He's now seriously thinking about switching to Cubase, since it offers more features. Ableton is very nice to work with Audio files though and friendly to work with

what features could you possibly need in what ableton apparently doesn't offer. I can do everything I need and want to do with Ableton. I've recently just figured out how I can get back into doing looping with my prepared guitar and using multiple loop recordings. Pretty awesome.

i have now stuck firmly with ableton it gets the job done in half the time
sure there are a few things that need sorting but im sure they will come in time
ive learned that it anit what you use its how you use it. if you have no ideas but all the kit in the world then your f*&cked

live 7(only have that unlocked) is essential and fundamental for me atm. but truely what i really need is the steinberg or sony acid.

Re: cubase sx3 or ableton live? (help me!!!!!!)

both live and ableton have the same kind of feel to it but live has a different approach in its matrix which i dont like tbh, i preffer cubase over all but live is far better @ other things but i much admit i havnt used cubase in a long time so i dont know how advanced it has become in comparason

7.03 is highly unstable.

Re: cubase sx3 or ableton live? (help me!!!!!!)

^ feel ya on that one man. fucking ableton has really backfired on me. i purchased their bargain buy 6.0.7/free 7 upgrade last year, and its been such a bust upgrading and such. furthermore, i deleted my email inbox which had the email they send me with the serial number in it, and lo and behold i had to wipe my harddrive clean about a month ago cuz it was shot, so i lost that. then i got a new hd and now i cant reinstall the shit cuz i dont have the serial number, call me foolish for not writing it down but wtf. so ya im livid right now, i dont even want to call them regarding the matter yet.

my main gripe tho is the limit ableton has on decoding.

i purchased the same thing...cant say i,ve had any problems with it appart from one weird thing when the sample rates way up @ 96...when trying to dj using it and obviously listeing to a track on the side it seems to slow down the whole flow for a second and then go back to normal speed...i havnt had any unstability from it @ all but i,m running a quad core with 8 gig ddr2
