Choosing Sequencer  Reply with quote  

I would like to know how people choose sequencer to record (other than ease of use). Some say that there are difference between Cubase, Logic, and Sonar. Is there any different in output or mixdown process? I notice that Cubase and Sonar has a different process of storing audio data, Is that effect what we've record? And also the difference in using "plug-in". In Sonar, we have to regist VST plug-in to DXI, Does it effect the quality or memory usage?

Thank you,
Pingpong ^^

this is a good question and one which deserves a lengthy answer.

I cant attempt to provide the detail right now but we could at least promote the discussion further.

Basically the applications (software) you mention all do the same thing, but in slightly different ways in terms of the end user, i.e. the way the user performs a process.

The other thing to consider at least is the fact that applications do have a "sound" due to the different algorithms used to perform the same task. If you consider ALL processes within a digital audio environment are a function of binary mathematical calculations... because different manufacturers perform these calculations in differing ways it stands to reason that differing sounds will result.

I think in terms of choice you need to consider which interface you prefer working with and which features are preferred also.
