Sequencers for Digital Audio and Midi

All your favourite sequencers for making and managing your chart-busting compositions can be found below, whether audio, MIDI or both. These days, sequencers (especially the leading brands like Cubase, Logic etc...) try to be everything a full-blown recording studio provides... as well as be the musician!

Be aware though, that what you get with all this power often means more resource-intensive software (though Pro Tools is slightly different). So consider carefully what you actually think you'll need/use. I've yet to find a sequencer that does absolutely everything I want, as easily as I want. Conversely, I've yet to find a sequencer that doesn't come with stuff I don't want either.

Remember in all this though; that even paying top-dollar for the top dawg sequencer is still ridiculously cheaper than building a full-blown studio, equipped with instruments!

What others are saying:

feature:
more effects in the package would be nice. the compressor rocks, reverb and delay are so so i say. haven't used all effects yet (cruncher, ect.).

quality:
i've used sonar, protools, cool edit, n'tracks studio, ect. this is just as good as any. 24 bit recording for under $100,..... come on!!

value:
can't beat it for real. no n-tracks or cakewalk product can compare for real vst's, rewire (reason), its worth $200 at least. this and a audiophile 2496(99.00), and a behringer mixer and you got a 48 track studio for around 250.00.

desirability:
interface not as sexy as sx or sl but still pretty good.

sound:
same as any, you only get garbage out if you put garbage in. dig?

support:
never needed them so i don't know. but they have been conntacting me (specials, offers) so that's a plus.

overall:
does everything you basically need it to do. 48 audio tracks unlimitec midi no crashes in 6 months.
