I've been debating for a while on whether or not I should jump ship on the PC platform> I went shopping on the weekend and ended up with a 2 gHz MacBook. I was looking on the Windows side but I wasn't prepared to go the Vista route and there wasn't a whole heck of a lot of hardware left with XP preloaded, so I decided to bite the bullet and go Mac.
Now I need to decide what to do on the DAW side. With Windows I had been using Tracktion but as of late I had doing more and more with a product called Podium. Boot camp will keep me going for a while here but I do want to make a full transition to the Mac. I don't want to spend a whole lot of money on this so I am looking at the following: Tracktion 3 Ultimate Bundle Logic Express Cubase Studio 4 I've looked at Ableton Live on the Windows side and could never get into so I'm not considering it. Am I overlooking anything? It's also looking like I have to abandon my favorite drum program (Jamstix) so I am curious as to what some lower cost options might be in this area. I appreciate any feedback you might have... Darcy |

I saw a demonstration of Drum Core, by one of the developers.
It's a little different animal, it's not a plugin, but a standalone app that communicates via ReWire. It's collection of drum performances by several different drummers in the form of audio and midi. The audio and midi segments can be dragged and dropped into the Arrange window. What makes it really interesting is how the treated the patterns at different tempos. Patterns are time streatched over a tempo range where the sound remains realistic, as the tempo gets to higher range a pattern is inserted that was recorded at higher tempo. Drumsets are completely editable and you can import your own samples, or mix and match elements from the different drummers kits. Check out the demo, they also have a free Drum core LT, that can load the various drummer packs. They are constanly releasing new drummer packs. http://www.drumcore.com
