in DAW, BUUUT, I need Acid-like functions. Specifically
the ability to audition loops tempo matched to the piece and easily load
them into a track. Live does this, as does Acid. Reaper doesn't. Damn.
I'm going to try and rewire Live (I've got the 7.0.2 demo) into Reaper and
see how that goes. But I really just want to stay with ONE app in ONE box.
I was thinking about Live, but the demo I've been using is acting really
funny. Multiple envelopes and I'm getting crackles and pops. One would
think its a latency issue, but nope, I've got only 10 tracks running and
Live's own cpu meter says like 6%. (Oh, and 15+ tracks in Reaper -no pops
and crackles.) And, I guess I'm not alone in the problem. Other guys have
reported similar concerns on the Live forums. THis is a deal breaker -unpredictable
popping: mondo drag. SO....I'm thinking Sonar. I called Sweetwater to confirm
that Sonar would behave like Acid -preview loops at project tempo and playback
at project tempo. The guy I talked to, he doesn't know.... I recall some
of you good folks using Sonar -is Sonar on Acid?
MRSONAR is my 'go to' for midi and sequence building. Yes, it does loop
stretching, like acid. And the artifacts are quite livable. The mixbus has
improved greatly. Precision and automation are great. Dxi/VSTi capable.
DX/VST capable.
My only complaint really is that it doesn't do low latency all that well...
yet.. but for what I'm using it for it smokes. I can see the day when I
leave Paris that Sonar will be my choice.

> MRGye, as the creator of the DVD material I should probably say that most ppl
paid for it and you should offer something to whomever might be kind enough
to help you out with it. That being said, if someone does want to send a
copy it is completely protection free ( I did this on purpose), can be
copied and I'd find no offense whatsoever with helpin' a dude out.

tempo match.
Cubase has Media Bay which allows you to browse media files, and if desired
preview at project
tempo, or the file's original tempo. In Sonar 7 when importing audio, the
file will preview
at project tempo.

>>I second the "try a Breedlove" recommendation. I like Taylors, but when I
played a comparable Breedlove, my fingers said ooooh. I couldn't afford the
higher dollar models, but found that one of their "overseas" $1000 models
played and sounded very nice. I'm looking at her now. ;>) I think they make
some of the best looking acoustics also.
I remember playing a Rainsong graphite composite acoustic electric about 8
years ago that I also fell in love with. Might check them out too.
