you know whats sad?


you gotta learn protools.

you gotta learn reason.

you gotta learn your mpc.

you have an mbox thats an interface!

you are on the right track!

just to let you know. this forum will not hold your hand... at all!

all i gotta say is... get your connections right between your mpc and your mbox... refer to your manuals while puffing on reefer!

try it!!!


btw

did you know they have colleges for reason and protools?

i think thats hilarious

im no newbie to this,, i started about 2 years ago with just reason and an oxgen25. the i got a 2000xl and so on,, i got my shiii running right.,, i just got the 1000 and i was learning the factory os and said f'it and got the jjos ,. im ok with reason but i only use it for sounds, not as a sequencer,, the problem is that i don't know how to do anything in protools. i work a lot so its hard to dedicate time to learning 4 different things at once. all i really need to know is how to track my mpc tracks into protools,but its a bit more complicated because im using sounds from reason so i would have to track with rewire

Hey, I'm tryin to figure out the same thing, but with Cubase. I use my mpc1000 to sequence everything, but I most of my sounds are from reason. This whole rewire thing is confusing me. Cubase will pick up the sounds from in the mpc, but nothing from Reason. Did you ever figure it out???

I don't get it. Basically, what I'm tryint o do is record vocals over some beats ive already done. I just got Cubase so I don't know much about it.

honestly fam i have never recorded vocals or used cubase but u can probably find the answer online somewhere. try looking on YOUTUBE to see if ppl have posted tutorials or go to future producers.com and look around

There is also a protools school in most areas of the world, I found it real helpful.

Hey waada u know, I f'ed with it for 3 days and figured it out!! Now I can press play in cubase, and Reason and my mpc both play!! I can press play or stop on the mpc too. And I can record each track seperatly and use all of the Cubase VSTs and do fade ins and all that kewl stuff. The only thing, for some reason sometimes, or rather almost everytime I open reason again it says something about the a problem with the midi ports and I just keep closing it, fiddling with Cubase and reopening it, and when it finally works which it does in about five minutes, it doesn't seem to be for any particular reason or setting that I've changed.
