I presently own the ibook G3 800Mhz with 640 ram. I am about to buy the korg microkorg which is a mini digital/anologue synth with midi capabilities.
I will eventually be upgrading to either an Imac or a powerbook sometime in the next 8 months. I am mostly interested in making experimental electronica, ambient, future lounge, jazzy beats, drum and bass, trance, ect, ect... I basically want to start with the bare minimum for a desk top computer based music studio. I would like to star out with one software solution for my needs. I would like to buy a software package that can make drums, effects, samples, layers?, and sequencing. Is Reason 2.5 my best bet for getting started. I also want the program to be able to run on my current G3 ibook, and on my next upgrade which will be a G4. I know Trent Reznors made his first NIN album with an anologue keyboard synth, and an old Mac. I want to see what I can do with the most basic set up for electronica type music. Any advice and help is extremely appreciated. Thanks. -Jason |

Hi again. lol this thread is getting old I know.
I decided that I am going to just get the mbox to start....that and the microkorg. The mbox comes with light versions of reason and live and a few other programs that I can learn the basics with. eventually I see myself getting reason 2.5, and then after that a simple usb midi interface for a keyboard controler for reason's sounds. and later if I'm still really into it and having fun and being productive, I'll look into logic. Thanks for all the help everyone. I'll let you know what I end up with when the time comes. -J
