I've been contemplating more and more about ditching the mpc4000 for sequencing and switching to software sequencing. I'd still have the same sounds, all my boards etc..
I've been using Battery 2 loading up all my drums in there lately and its soo much easier, more visual I guess. Point and click as opposed to going thru menus on my tiny 4k screen.
I just don't really know how to hook all my shit up to start sequencing and I heard Pro Tools aint the best for sequencing but I'm no that familiar with Logic or Nuendo which were pretty good I heard. Harvey Mason (the Underdogs)
told me he uses Logic to sequence, and they got HITZ under they're belt, so it's gotta be decent.
Anyone switch they're whole setup from external to software?
I've got Fantom X6, Motif XS, Roland V-synth XT, Triton Rack, hooked through a digi002 but I've got some real good software, battery, korg legacy, FM7 etc..
Do I need one of those MIDI I/O joints?
Any pointers or people who've moved over , help would be appreciated.
I just don't wanna fuck my whole creativity process up. I'm so used to just gettin down on the 4k, but I feel like its a pain in the ass to create a great arrangement because of the way it lacks visually, I'm not that deep off into the MPC so I don't know all the arranging stuff, I'm more of a loop guy and edit in pro tools, but i feel itd be easier to just make drum patterns and move them here and there on my screen ... IDK ,
LEMME KNOW!
thanks
