![]() ![]() ![]() So, is Opcode kaput? Should I be looking for a new sequencer? Larry IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() quote: Yes, and yes. Digital Performer is very nice. Logic Audio is powerful. Both are significantly different from Studio Vision, so there will be some pain involved. (I assume you want an audio/MIDI program.) IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() Talking about soft-sequencers, the new SONAR is worth a look. It includes a Groove control ala Acid, which can use Acid files. You can load any samples built in Kyma into an Acid or SONAR track. You can sync these, easily, to audio and MIDI tracks (in SONAR). SONAR XT comes with the Tassman Modeling Synth, which should be an excellent compliment to Kyma. I downloaded a free 30 day version of SONAR. It did not come with the Tassman, but does have the Groove Clips feature and I have begun to experiment with importing Kyma samples. Which can be done even more directly into AcidPro. These tools are not expensive, and if you are using Kyma as a compositional or soundsculpting tool, Acid or Sonar could become indispensible. IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() ...speaking of Tassman... that is the most incredible synth I have ever played with. I love it to death, and between it and my Kyma, a huge universe of really unusual sound opens. I too faced the Opcode dilema some while ago, and I ended up, at the recommendation of a sound pro, using Logic/Audio. I can't say that I love Emagic's way of doing things, but it isn't too bad after you get re-educated into their ways. It is definitely flexible, and allows all kinds of MIDI manipulations using graphical items -- kind of like Kyma. My brother just got a copy of Cakewalk Pro-Audio/9 (the precursor to Sonar). Apparently the Cakewalk series has user customization possibilities using a Lisp-like language they call CAL. That looks really incredibly neat to me! - DM IP: Logged |
