Re: Usine Hollyhock for Live Looping?

[Paul Haslem <phaslem@wightman.ca>]

Hi, 
I don't have specific experience with Usine, I did look at it a number of 
years ago but decided on Bidule (   http://www.plogue.com/products/bidule  
) instead. Concept wise, they seem like very similar programs, an 
environment where you can channel your signal through various vst 
programs. I ended up with bidule because it seemed a bit easier for me to 
understand, but I do know that lots of people use usine. In bidule I've 
had some very elaborate setups routing various signals down through Mobius 
and building a great soundscape. I'm sure that you can do the same with 
Usine. You might try getting hold of Per, he has had much more extensive 
and indepth usage.

good luck, I found that going with that modular sort of environment opened 
up a whole different world of looping for me.
