If it was an irreversible decision... An accoustic guitar, a cheap digital piano, and a looper pedal. :hihi:

1. No mapping for 3rd part drums. So, if I want to use Addictive Drums and do my beats with it, I choose either S1 or Cubase.
2. Can't play midi patterns for drums. There are tons of midi patterns for advanced drumming and again only with S1 or Cubase I can play those midi and make Addictive Drums playing them, for example.
Can't you just setup the mapping once in Bitwig with all the midi devices that are available to you, save it as a chain and load it every time you want to use Addictive Drums?

It's not widely used, but AD2 can convert GM (and other) drum files to AD format;

I always thought Live looked like Max. Very 1999.
A classic then!
Tragically ugly! So ugly, in fact, I could never get into Max as its ugliness was so distracting. :lol:

Definitely agree. 100% with you on this one.

Tbh, it is not that I dislike ableton, it is that I love bitwig too much.
Watch out! To love a hot date is great but a good wife will take care of you until the end.

Enjoy for now… why not! :D

OK, this is making far more sense now. Somebody has been hitting the bottle :lol:
The lyrics celebrate the "medicinal compound" (medicine (like other similar patent medicines) had a particular appeal as a readily available 40-proof alcoholic drink, and it is likely that this aided the popularity of the song) invented by Lily the Pink, and humorously chronicle the "efficacious" cures it has brought about, such as inducing morbid obesity to cure a weak appetite, or bringing about a sex change as a remedy for freckles.
