    Thanks for sharing X Haven't used the Step Seq ever but looks a useful tool. I wonder if you can use it to just add a drum etc in the middle of a drum track as opposed to creating a full beat that runs the length of the song.

    • @XELOhh1
      @XELOhh1  3 года назад +1

  • @michaelburns8073
    @michaelburns8073 4 года назад

    Good work as always, man. Surprised you didn't mention that if you make a drum map for Sitela (or any drum map for whatever drum VST you're working with), then the Step Sequencer will use the actual name of the drum sample type (ie, kick, snare, hi-hats). This makes the step sequencer much easier to use and it makes it a bit easier for other DAW users (I'm lookin' at you FL users!) to enter beats.

      It sounds the same as FLs to me... What are you using as the drum sampler? I use sitala and it sounds correct to me .. In cakewalk you have to set your bars and beats unlike FL ... FL makes it easier to match things up that could be why it sounds off to you...

      Definitely Cakewalk.
      I've found that the stability issue is the same with every DAW. I've been through every DAW and certain PC's I've had would make a DAW crash but on my secondary pc it would never crash.
      Sometimes you just get a good "marriage" between your system's particular parts and components that compliment a certain DAW very well, but not the others, and vice versa.
      Reaper is dope though, it's just that Cakewalk comes with all the bells and whistles, and it's with no promotional nonsense whatsoever.

    • @XELOhh1
      @XELOhh1  3 года назад

      I see.. Cakewalk does not come with a sampler and this step sequencer does not do like FL where every channel can be made to a sampler... So i know what you are talking about.. Sitala is a strait drum machine that cant chop samples... You will need a third party sampler to do what I think you are asking... I use Komplete Kontrol for one shots and Momentum or Serato Sample to chops.. I hope they do make a sampler in Cakewalk that will help them reach people who use samplers to make beats...

    • @XELOhh1
      @XELOhh1  4 года назад +4

      That is true... Just like getting use to any other DAW its going to have a learning curve... I know people that wont upgrade fl 10 or 11 because they like that work flow better than FL20.. Same for Cakewalk and Sonar Platinum people dont want to change.. The good thing about cake walk is that you can change the look of it and make it feel like other DAWs not sure if you watch my FL vs Cakewalk video but I show the pros and cons of both DAWs from my prospective.. If you want 2 you can bring FL inside of Cakewalk.. I have a video on that as well.. But thanks for the comment..😄🙏

      Cakewalk by Bandlab comes with 4 vsts and they are not the greatest... The SI instruments are barely ok... And the TTS1 is not good sounding at all... So please tell me what instruments within Cakewalk should I use... The vsts used in the video are free and are better than the default instruments and tools in Cakewalk... And the one of the biggest things missing is the sampler so ya have to use what you have... Let me know if you have questions... Thanks for the comment..😀🙏🏾
