Re: [newmellotrongroup] Mac - M-Tron Pro

2012-07-30 by Jim Blair

I would recommend Reaper. It's less than 12meg, works on practically anything (old, new, OSX, PPC, PC), is stable, well supported, and is incredibly powerful.

Hi Clay, Ableton is really easy to use and is a very versatile sequencer/launch platform. I got the basics working in an afternoon-it's very intuitive and has user friendly graphics. It's the easirst one I've messed around with. There are lots of things it can do as you get used to it but the basics are a breeze...

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.
