Me again,,,,Back to help you with your question.
Cubase and Reason together make for a very strong combination! They both were made to work together using a technology called REWIRE. enabling you to use both programs together at the same time in real time. I usually create all my fundemental music tracks using Reason. It comes with a 500MB+ sound bank and has literally hundreds of free downloadable 'ReFills' available on the net. It is true that Reason is not capable of recording any audio on its own, there is a variety of ways to import your own sounds and samples into Reason.... but if you are using Reason with Cubase you can 'ReWire' all your Reason tracks directly into Cubase and then record any 'outside' audio to your composition using Cubase audio recording capabilities. This is a great time to also be using this Software as Both Cubase SX and Reason 2.0 (sounds great by BTW. I am beta testing it as we speak) are soon to be realeased!!!! THEY WILL BOTH BE OS X COMPATABLE!!!! YIPPY! Reason will be coming out in a few moths and Cubase SX is due to be released for Mac this fall....... So start saving for that SoundCard and begin networking to help you find and (aaahhem) 'borrow' the software to check out, until you are able to afford purchasing them for yourself. Ciao. _____________________________Amann____________________ |
