id love to hear what you come up with if you post anything!
Enjoy live!
I know what you mean Daniel I had a few moments like that myself with the lite version so I snapped up the full version at the Marketplace the first chance I got. If you do buy the full version you definitely won't need another DAW, you'll be totally set with Live & Reaper.daniel_baum wrote: The entire weekend was like one long "oh my god" moment. . . .
I never imagined that any software could be so inspirational. I actually caught myself with my mouth wide open a couple of times. The sheer speed and ease with which things that are very fiddly in Reaper can be done is stunning.
My music is entirely electronic and it just fits me like a glove.
I have almost decided to buy the full version of Live. Any weaknesses that it may have seem to be complemented by Reaper, which I will certainly not be dumping.
Just my 2C . . .

"Touch wood" I haven't had any problems with Amplitube 3 yet in Live. I'll definitely try out the faux doubling take technique.emanual tehpirate wrote:i use live 8 (and besides its dislike of amplitube3 on my comp and resulting crashin) im very happy with it for my rock (influenced stuff). its very easy to construct the basis of a song with and mess about moving chords around. the thing i think live is the absolutly great for is the faux double tracking of guitar parts - just duplicate the track, twist the panning, move a couple of warp markers, tweak the vst amp sim settting and bingo. its a hundred times more natural than just delaying the track by some odd milliseconds. tbh i bet it wouldnt sound that bad on someones vox either. also i think the live8 added fades feature was worth the upgrade from live7 for me, but ive no experiance of other daw software - coming from a portastudio (and a drum machine) via a dj friend of mine
I transfered an old Track I never got round to finishing from Reaper to Live.
It wasn't too much bother because it was mainly midi & a few loops I created.
In no time at all I had all the right pieces together & looped in the right places. Working in Session view truly is inspirational & now I have a few good ideas for this tune. I used Drum Racks for the drum samples from the Reaper project & I'm really loving Drum Racks right now. Its very easy to use & there's a lot more control & tweak-ability than you can get from Reasampl0matic/Readrums.
Right I'm off for a snooze....spent way too much time with Live (quit at 4.00am) lastnight. The funtime's gotta stop sometime
