Dimension is good, but by trying to satisfy many tastes it positions itself as a "middle of the road" pop-rock rompler.

If you are after specific building tools for hiphop, drum loops, I would look elsewhere.

Where would you recommend for cheap or free?

Reason 6 demobank rewired for free, all the synths and drums you could wish for,
just record the audio into your sequencer and the jobs a good one

haha, I downloaded the demo, but it doesn't work rewired into my sequencer DAW (Cakewalk HS6XL). Whatever the case, I don't feel right doing that.

Do any of you know how good the drum samples and hiphop style samples sound in Dim Pro?

Given our recent discussion, I would lean toward saying yes. For $37 it is almost a no-brainer. I agree with Numanoid that it is a good middle-of-the-road VI. I think that is what you're looking for at this point. It has a lot of sounds for little money. You can also edit the sounds if they aren't quite what you want.

It's too bad you couldn't get the deal they had on Rapture a couple of weeks ago. It was $20, but you had to have Sonar 7 or X1. I am tempted to get DimPro myself at that price, but I've already bought like 10 or 15 things over the last year, so I need to really use what I have before I buy more.

Music radar for instance got free hip hop samples:

And then you can use the great free shortcircuit sampler to split, layer, stretch, more or less anything you want to do

thanks! Will these samples work with a free sampler such as sampletank free or dropzone?

btw I just got reason 6 demo to work in my sequencer lol.

I think they will work with Dimesion LE, that can load wav samples as I rememeber

Haven't tried dropzone, but pretty certain it will load wav file samples, it's kind of a minimum requirement for samplers to do that

btw those samples are loops. lol I could cut them into individual hits, but I'd rather find individual samples of kicks, snares, etc. Thanks anyway though!

Well, if anyone is interested to buy it, I could sell it at a lower price, since I have it twice on my Cakewalk account. I bought it a while ago, then I just bought Sonar X-1 Producer upgrade that includes it.

If anyone is interested, just let me know and I will check with Cakewalk how one license can be transfered...

You cannot legally sell or transfer any Cakewalk products....

I'd stick with Version 1.5.

3ptguitarist · Post by **3ptguitarist** » Tue May 29, 2012 5:18 am

how do you guys like the sound selection with dim pro 1.5?

Is Dimension Pro worth buying for ~$37?
