Hi everyone,
I need to start all over again. But this time, I want it to be the last time for a long time. Um... You see due to reconfigs, system updates I have rejigged my setup so many times I never get settled into a workflow. I have a Powerbook G4 1.5Ghz, 1.5G RAM, a Stanton Scratch amp for my soundcard, a Remote SL25 and about 25 Gigs of samples/ loops. I've always used Ableton Live. i recently tried the demo of 7. My computer struggled even without playing anything so I've given that up and actually went back to Live 4! It starts in like 2 seconds and the CPU isn't strained at all. I like that. What I want to do is have a basic setup. I'd like to know maybe a couple of good free, easy to understand VST synths and maybe a drum machine to use with my Remote SL25. Any suggestions for loop/sample management? Most of them come from computer music magazine (which I can borrow from my local public library). I have about 3 gigs that I have organised myself. Any ideas/advice? All welcome! |

I'd look into the MAX/MSP users community, some made loopers for live sessions and are giving them away.
