Ableton or CubaseSX?

SX.

You need that learning curve.

I don't agree with that learning curve.
Because the learning proces is something on an individual level.

Some like to read books.
Some like to just try out things.
And most sequence production software have something educational nowadays.

He's learning a sequencer, and of course his curve his individual, he has a preferred learning style, we all do. It's exceptionally important to know how a sequencer in this style functions because if he wants to be able to port his experiences across to another platform its going to be much easier in the long run.

And as for the defence of ableton.. i sold some kit to get it cos its ace. I dont think either me or TM were slating it dudes... We were just saying that SX is probably a slightly better bet as an intrduction to the VST environment.

comments ritizi?

Yeah maybe. :)

I didn't really mention to explicitly make a choice between Ableton or Cubase. A couple of years ago there was a same kind of discussions between making a choice for Cubase or Logic Audio pro. The Logic users where introduced with Logic because of the incredible ease of use with Midi hardware and musical expression. Cubase users where charmed with the easy way of programming automation with EQ and VST plugins...

I've banned Cubase because of the most inefficient way it deals with my processor power.

Hmm?
what do you mean?
2 processors or something?

Cubase sx 3.0 is 64bit compatible, or i think is 64Bit for 64 bit processors now.Well quote from kvr..

64-Bit compatible with upcoming Windows XP 64-Bit Edition; supports up to 4 GB of RAM.
