Jesus... you guys don't know the meaning of 'old school'

The first software I used was a program I wrote on our home computer (BBC Model B) to play a version of "Don't Bring Me Down" by ELO. That would have been in 1984 or 5. The next program I used was Steinberg Pro 24 on an Atari 512, in 1987.

Anyone ever heard the song 'monty on the run' by Hubbard? It was/is a great SID song and to me a solid evidence you just need creativity to make a good song. I would go even further and say that (technical) boundaries stimulate creativity.

ofcourse bavo, because it forces you to be creative wth what you have, and because everybody had another setup everybody sounded different it's something that has been noticed by many people, in soundonsound they even devoted an article to it once

colin, man... You've been around a long time i just started playing sega games on my first master system in 1986 i was 6 years old But i have had a chance to play around with a version of cubase on an atari st1020, it was a dream to use, even better then my sequencer at the time (roland mc-500MkII). But when my friend bought an mpc2000 we threw it out... Damn shame though, back then cubase was slick and fast and easy to use, it didn't have audio yet so nothing but midi, which i liked a lot (the screens and menu's were much clearer)... And it was steady as a rock...

Abso-fucking-lutely. This is why I'm so excited about revisiting some of our old tracks; because we only had very limited equipment (http://forum.isratrance.com/viewtopic.php/topic/80100/forum/2/start/32) it forced us to be creative in other ways to make a good track. I was recently set a challenge by Grant (aka Darshan) to write a track in six hours, consisting only of certain specified elements (kick, one set of hats, one snare, one bass, etc). Those limits really fucking made me think about what I was writing, and forced me to come up with ideas that I'd never have thought of had I had more options. I thoroughly recommend the limiting of technical options to stimulate creativity and new ideas.           Mastering - http://mastering.OOOD.net :: www.is.gd/mastering

hehe same here... i think it was 98/99 or something like that...
then i got over to play with cubase VST 3 and a roland mc505, but my brother and i had only borrowed it for a while, so when it was gone i continued with some Vst instruments... by now i knowed i wanted to continue to make music, soon i found reason 1 and fruityloops 2.5 or something and i learnd alot in FL, but all this bitching about frutiy was a toy made me uncertain what to work with, so i tried lots of sequencers, i ended up with having both cubase and frutiy... and always got more satisfying work done in FL while cubase was frustrating as hell but i got more and more over to cubase, still FL is a lovely program and a good sketch book...
Right now im going to work some more in Protools to get the feel of it, i never did any major work in it.. but i want to learn more about it... still i have to learn cubase and FL aswell haha...

i think i tried fast-tracker sometime but i didnt get my head around it at all, hehe
