Subject: [newmellotrongroup] Mac - M-Tron Pro

 
I took the advice and have M-Tron Pro. The Streetly tapes are fab. I did not know that other sound samples were included as well. (The ARP Pro Soloist fuzz guitar - Nice!) I was surprised to find all of the presets and 'artist' presets.

I am now looking for a good, easy to learn Mac host app. A good sequencer / recorder / editor. I don't want to use any acid style loops. Products like Apple's Logic and Propellerhead's Reason seem to include loads of preset loops and phrases. I don't want any of that. Ableton? I'm not good at learning new stuff. Cubase? MOTU's Digital Performer? I think I could probably figure them out. Pro Tools just scares me for some reason.
