I'm not sure I see the *need* for collaborators to be on the same DAW. Citizen Regen has two members recording in Studio One, one in CbB, one in Ableton, and one in Reaper (he used to use Digital Performer).

It's never hindered us. Why? All members transfer full length 24/48 wav/flac files. We don't need DAW specific project/song files to get the collab done.

 

He's hawking his copy of Studio One on the corner 12th Street and Vine.

Oh my! What about all your Toontrack midi packs? They are gathering dust 

Using those MIDI packs are destined as demo parts for a song where applicable. Ultimately replaced by real players. ? 

 

It's catchy in a good way mate, not like an STD. ?

Is it the workflow, some key features, etc.? 

I like their implementation of Arranger track over CbB. There is no finalization process like CbB it's more WYSIWG.

I like the chord track when used properly. Works best on clean guitars (over distorted guitars), clean piano or organ and vocals (i,e. pre FX).

I prefer the "put a bus anywhere you want in the mixer and that a bus can also be a folder in the mixer. Don't need to see the vocals tracks, collapse them.

The built in Monitor 2Bus that can contain ARC or SONARWORKS or Slate's VSX is nifty too. And not interfere with your mixdown.

Again,  all this "works for me".

FYI, my MIDI usage is limited, I'm not a synth or orchestrator guy, so their MIDI implementation is enough for me.

I'm just wondering the reasons those who choose Studio One find it superior to Cakewalk. 

As is said many times here and all over the internet, "use what works best for you" and I'll add "there really is no 'superior' DAW"

Having used CbB, Reaper, Studio One, ProTools, Cubase, Harrison Mixbus 32C, Samplitude, Mixcraft , Digital Performer, Logic and Reaosn the question, to me, is not which is superior, but features work best for me.

As of today, I'm most comfortable in Studio One.

If I use these drums will I sing like Freddy? ?

Best case scenario, There's a Lite version on the way. Like Home Studio was to Sonar.

Worst case, they actually take away features. Which sounds crazy but I've seen this happen before. Recycle, UVI Player, recently Battery and Kontakt to a lesser degree. I hate when companies take away feature and call it an update. They actually put a couple back in Kontakt because users complained so loudly.

As a programmer, I can concede that in (very) rare cases a new feature might need to negate and old feature. But to just take a way a feature from your user base without confirmation that it's not used at all is utterly insane.

I loved the line "needed an MIT graduate to operate the DAW".  I never realized I'm an MIT graduate. Imma ask my boss for a raise.

Watched one about Brian Jones last week, but it didn't really make as much of an impression as I'd have hoped. I'm not a die hard Stones fan in any way and I know little about them, but even so, I seem to have learned very little.

Rolling Stone: The Life and Death of Brian Jones it was called, IIRC.

I saw that one too. Kinda meh.

I did watch The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus last week and it was kind of sad to see Brian just playing maracas on Sympathy For The Devil. But to see Jethro Tull with Tony Iommi was way cool. The Dirty Mack was fun too.

I'm working on waking up. Then I plan to work on a new Citizen Regen song. Then I'll work on a nap around 2:00PM.

 

The latter item is bound to be 100% successful. Not sure I can say the same for the two former items.

Oh yeah, I've all but completed my build of THIS I managed to destroy the LED that indicates ON/OFF and I'm awaiting the replacement.

Update:
I did wake up. I did work on two new Citizen Regen songs and I'll be headed out for that nap any moment now. ?

Are Alpha-Bits the best bits?

This song rocks - very heavy - well done - all the instruments and vocals sounded pro.  The mix sounded top-notch through my headphones. 

Thanks for the listen and your kind words.

He'll be moving his vowels too.

I'm really saddened by this news. PhilZ was the second generation voice of The CHB. A gentleman for sure. I met him in person at his home in Long Island, NY and he came to my place once.

A nit but the opening bass line isn't quite right. You missed the slide up. Feels weak without it. Again, a small nit.

My intelligence is artificial. Does that make me a saleable product too?

Free upgrade installed.

gone!
