Hi there,
Just wondering if one if better than the other, (Reason or Logic). I'm hoping to make deep, soulful house, but don't know which one of these to use. I also don't know whether i need to buy a Mac or PC, or whether either will do.

Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

Thanks
Ronnie

Okay... I am not so computer-sophisticated as to show you a snapshot but I'll tell you how it works. Basically you open up Ableton first & then you open Reason..Then you "arm" a track to record, setting the input to "Reason Channel 1". Then in Reason, you just create an instrument & wire that instruments output to Reason's Audio Out module at the top of your rack (you can create a mixer but it's not really necessary when using Reason as a REWIRE slave). Then you can either Transmit Midi from Ableton or use Reasons Sequncer (easier) for midi recording & editing which is clocked to run in time with Ableton's sequencer. VERY EASY. Logic can do the same thing. Logic is very cool but kinda expensive (however, trust me, you will spend the same amount of money in the end just in smaller segments & will still end up probably ownling Logic eventually, if you want to pursue professional work. I don't own Logic but will probably at least have to know how to use it if I want to pursue any kind of "sound design for visual media" kind of job. It is all going that way. Ableton Kicks Butt however.
