Hi all.
Can anyone tell me the type of software most likely used on Bjork's "It's in Our Hands" song? I'm curious to know what software she's been using since Vespertine for beats. I'm getting into this just recently and can't decide which programs to start with. I have an MPC 2000XL but am looking to get more computer-based. So, what does Bjork (and crew) use to make beats and tracks? Thanks so much to anyone who replies. I'm having a hard time looking this stuff up online. Cheers, Chas Blackman |

What can Logic do?
Well, umm, everything? Everything you'd expect a desktop studio to do. It has instruments, sampler, tracks, editors, synchroniserators, graphicness, customiseabilty, external control, it handles any interface you throw at it and two or more at a time, I mean, how many other packages let you use PT hardware and native power at the same time with all the goodnes that they both provide mixed in with each other? It's got everything in one box, you add a supercomputer and you've got your desktop studio. Even the pre 2000 versions really perform well and had features that others just couldn't compete with. It's just good. I love Pro Tools too, I think they innovated with their software and others now copy their arrange window. OK they're more corporate than Emagic were but not so much now it's Apple. Did Emagic ever charge for minor ( .1, .11 .2 etc etc ) updates? Wasn't it just 4 to 5 to 6 and so on...On the other hand, I do like that you get all the instruments and extras in Logic bundled in rather than buying them individually. Sorry, I'm rambling on here. I would say Bjork uses a very eclectic mix, sampling unusual experimetatative stuff with strange techniques and classic orchestration. But she's definitely mac based, beats etc may come from collaboraters so you could have anything in there. In the good old days albums would have instrument lists for each track, Bjork covers are usually very graphic with little or no text -------------------- Simon Flinn
