the true test of a musician is LIVE PLAYING!!
thats when you learn who has the guts... anyone can
sit in front of a computer and take as much time
as they want to get it perfect.... as a matter o' fact
my guitar teacher is teaching me tips about playing live
pretty soon!!!!! there is something he uses that when he
plays live if he ever gets off he runs a scale or sumtin
but i digress anyway I would love to hear you livE!!!!!!

remember to post the date for your gigs in the threat "up coming shows" I'm sure few UK ampers would be interested in coming to see you

I'm not sure how you would go about doing this song live but I just love    "Sun"  it's I nice little pop tune
I love the beat and "feel" of ...

Well, there are a few things you can do... one of them is to get Ableton Live..  It lets you load loops and trigger them at will, during which time they will automatically beat sync and play til you tell that particular loop to stop...  So not only can you load all the loops from your track and play them at will, but you can remix it a million ways to Sunday.  You can also load samples into somthing like Fl Studio or the like and play one shots and samples while Ableton is playing loops of recorded music so you can really jazz things up.  Ive never done this, but im looking into the same thing..  And Ive played with Ableton in the past so I know you can atleast do what ive described...

Good luck with the live show dude!

You should simply play the ones you enjoy the most, if you like them others will also.

yeah, grainshifter and me did a gig last night, for his own set he was using a laptop with Ableton live. That program is the best for arranging your whole set live and you can seemlessly go from one track into the other. So what songs to do? Why not all :P but start with the ones that are "easiest" to do in the program you'll be using before trying anything too complicated. You are in control of your show, so you decide!

thanks pup......
as u know i'm a cubase user ................... is ableton live that much better for live work????
I will have to use midi and audio trax pretty heavily (to keep the band size down
so if yes....... why????

simple terms please

I look forward to your reply

Ableton is better for live cause you can trigger a sample with the click of a mouse.  You're probably thinking "yeah, i can do that in Cubase".  But Ableton was designed to be used for live performance.  I would simply suggest you grab it and play with it.  If i were to go live that is what I would use.  Check it out.  Oh sorry, perhaps you directed this to Pup.  sorry...

hanks map

i will have 2  look at ableton live

but is it that much better????

ta the fish

k where can i grab it from fer free?



splash????

All I know is that progs like Cubase and Fl Studio are geared towards production and Ableton is geared as a live tool....    http://www.ableton.com/downloads  heres the link for the demo's, so check that out first.  If you like it I can send you a copy of it that I got when I bought my midi keyboard.
