Check this link http://www.sensomusic.org/forums/viewto ... 755#p28755 i think the info on the buy page hasnt been updated for this 'few free weeks'. Just go to the site you linked, and click Downloads, no email needed.

BTW, theres also a Usine Hollyhock Free version on the downloads page, not sure what the limitations are, cant find a version features comparison list or anything.

So it's was the answer ).
I tried Usine stage for processing Addictive drums with my e-drum.
At first glance, very convenient.

Thanks for the link (and Stage).

The index.html points to "url=./pages/index.html" which is what appears to be missing. If you go inside "\Manual\pages\manual" youll find about 7mb worth of (english) html guides and info split up into subfolders.

Wow! Many thanks for your generosity nay-seven. I didn't realise there was a tutorial on the website. Time to get acquainted.

nay-seven · Post by **nay-seven** » Sun Jan 12, 2014 8:50 am

Glad you appreciate this offer,
About help, the best way is to select English in the global setup and you can also use the online option in the same tab,

you'll also find some manuals, lessons to start here

And remember it's the old version of Usine, Usine Hollyhock is definitively more advanced and have a free version too !

This could possibly be the most versatile and powerful music application anywhere. But its not REGULAR - which is OK, but the documentation is a little lacking IMHO.

You guys should put up some very basic videos on how some of the simplest things are done - like how to open a synth, sequence a melody and effectuate it. A simple chain, but figuring it out in Usine is not as natural as other sequencers. I got well into Cubase and Reaper no problem after a couple of hours. I know it's first nature to the devs, but the rest of us come from all kinds of other environments... just some really basic how-tos to get one started.

Hello debutante, you're right and i understand your point of view . And yes, simple videos are on our todo list for Usine Hollyhock.

Actually you have a preview of the drag & drop features on this video:

this could help you cause all works this way in Usine hollyhock.

Waiting for this, feel free to also have a look on the manuals ( for hollyhock) on the download page :http://www.sensomusic.org/download/ and here for the Usine Stage : http://www.sensomusic.com/wiki/doku.php ... sine_stage
