Old Skool



So, after much pfaffing around with other music software, such as Garage Band and Ableton Live, I've reverted to using old MIDI Cubase software from the last century, versions of which I've been using since 1991, running on a 1997 Powerbook 3400c that had a friend of my daughter's in fits of giggles, as she'd never seen such an antique piece of functioning technology. I didn't introduce her to 25 year old Roland.

It brings the Akai S2000, Novation Supernova and aforementioned Roland out of retirement too, leaving plugins out of the mix until the mastering stage.



Not forgetting the old Joanna too, which sometimes gets forsaken for all the knob twiddling of digital audio.
