Steinberg Cubase
“This was the first music program I used on Atari, and I’ve never changed away from it. I reckon I don’t know half of all its functions, but I like the way you can edit audio so fast. It’s quite easy to understand all the channel stuff, too - plus, I’m used to it!”

“Unfortunately, I can’t play the guitar, so it’s good to have some help in this area! If you take some time to discover all of the software’s little functions, you can get that real guitar feeling (dead notes, etc). You can also create some really interesting, weird sounds or play with 20 fingers on every hand. It even looks super-cool.”

“As well as working with lots of software synths and effects to make my tracks, I always think it’s a good idea to add some real-life flavour. In my case I often record an old crappy drum set, or other noises around me. Once that’s done, I cut it and put it in the Battery sampler for fast access. The software is brilliant for that.”
