Cubase Sx Or Ableton Live? Options

[humphz]

Hi

I have managed to get my hands on both Cubase SX & Ableton Live 4 ( a good friend was upgrading and he did me a good deal).

Decisions, decisions, decisions...

Which one would suit me best?

I have an emu audity 2000 which i would love to get cranked and would like to use audio samples too but at the moment dont have any way of heraring the two together. (but i do have an analogue mixer but unsure how to set it all up)

This is my first attempt at trying to make my music and although im a wiz when it comes to macs the music side of things kinda baffles me sometimes.

any ideas welcome?

cheers

I guess you have a mac - since u are in this forum

I have run both cubase sx and ableton on a powerbook

with cubase i spent more time fixing problems and trying to make things
work than i ever did just jamming or making music - it looked quite pretty what with all the different collours and stuff - but nearly gave me a valium habit


ableton is ugly ...really really ugly...your friends will laugh at you when they see it

but it worked when i brought it home and installed it - it shook hands nicely with all my other software and hardware ....it is so friendly and
intuitive that it makes music creation an absolute joy......some people say its just for djing which i dont agree with

the high end users all seem to go with logic (which you aint got so lets forget that)

the tech users (engineers, pros et. al) from what I have read seem to think that cubase gives the more professional final sound...


last thought......look at the user forums fro each programme - that should
tell you all you need to know....cubase forum is full of posts that start with 'help!!!'

ableton forum is just covered with jizz
