Duncan,
Yes, I think one of the larger DAW
programs would be more robust in handling a rewire slave, but I’ve used
cubase SX before, and it really is quite a monster of a program. I found it overwhelming and uninspiring
to an extent. At my home studio, I
want simplicity and gratification, and Cubase made me feel like an newbie engineer
with way too much to learn.
That’s why I initially switched to
Ableton, and haven’t looked back since. But now I’m just unhappy with the
non ASIO performance of Wavelab, and I can’t get both programs to use
ASIO. I like Audition from the
demo, for sure…It’s just with it’s multitracking ability (non
warping), I was really attracted to having Audition and Ableton be running in
synch. Seemed like an ideal
combination for me of simplicity, wave editing, and looping/warping
capabilities.
Perhaps Adobe will be somewhat helpful
with the carrot that I ‘might’ buy their program. God knows they won’t help you once
you do unless you shell out more cash for tech support.
Thanks for your input.
Rich

>>Does anybody use a standalone recording app
that hosts Ableton successfully as a slave?<<
is cubase an option? my g/f was, until recently, using
cubase vst & ableton linked with rewire on her g4 powerbook.... I used
cubase to record some drumloops (out of a crappy old casio keyboard), edited
them in cubase's own edit window then saved them so that they could be looped
in ableton.
of course, this was on a mac.....
