'i want to use cubase for recording live instruments and i am going to check out reason for that kind of thing.'
Cubase will be OK for recording, Reason definitely won't, it's not what it's made for. Reason won't allow you to record anything, it will only allow you to import previously recorded material. To make it short, Reason is some kind of a sampler(without the possibility to record anything)-synthetizer-effect processor-midi sequencer; it will only work with its own soundbank and AIFF-Wav files (sampler NN19) or Rex Files (from the bank or from Recycle). 'do i need a souncard with reason?' Not necessarely, you can use the Mac's sound manager to monitor. If you want to later import some loops-songs from Reason into Cubase, the best way would be to remain in the digital domain->use Reason's export feature. 'how little can i get away with spending right now,what kind of interface and sound card will get me by until my budget improves' I know there are plenty of cheap (in terms of price) cards available (Delta Audiophile...) but I'm not really a specialist in that area (I mostly work with pro & semi-pro equipment)... Hang on I'm sure someone here wil give you more infos on this one... Hope that helps. -------------------- |
