@Orgue:

Yes, that was made only by software synths, i still have my Korg Z1, but i dont know what i should use it for  :-)

The one thing wrong about your studio, is infact the Amiga using octamed. I really hate to say that but its true, i`ve been there, done that, found out that Cubase SX was a million times better, more professional, you suddenly dont have any limitations anymore  :-) (i also tried bars `n` pipes but didnt like it that much)

You have all this amazing gear, and you cant use the power of it with octamed!

My tip for you:

Its a VSTi modular tracker for winblows, if you want a software only solution.

Or Cubase SX if you want a combined software hardware solution, but much more difficult song editing.

I started in the amiga demo scene back in late 1989, making music for intros etc...i wasnt older than 11 years.

I was amazed the first time i saw soundtracker(a version from late 1988, think it was D.O.C`s version), and loaded up a rock song that was included on the disk(i wish i could find it, i want to listen to it again after all these years)

I stayed on the scene until late 1992, when the scene was beginning to decrease. My group "Deadline" split up, some joined Crusaders, others Cryptoburners(I dont remember 100% where they went)

After that i bought a midibox and a cheap synth for my a2000, started to experiment with octamed, bought another synth after that, and more later.

Got a pc in 1999 and installed cubase, almost got a record deal with some songs i made, but talk about bad luck, the record label went bankrupt :lol:

The following year, i started to replace the hardware with software synths, got hold of an early version of "buzz modular tracker"

Since then things really have started to roll :-)
Got a record deal in 2001, released 4 singles, and an album, 3 of those singles were also released on compilation cd`s in both Norway & Sweden.

And a funny story, in 2002, some friends of mine went on a vacation to Bali in asia, they called me from one of the nightclubs there and said: "Dude! theyre playing your single here! wtf! you havent released it here?!?"

Well thats the good side of mp3`s, ur music gets spread all over the world, so im both positive and negative about mp3`s
;-)

Now my nr.1 goal is to get my music released in germany/holland

You should give "Buzz" a try:

Its an excellent vsti tracker, it`s modular, which is quite retro enough for me :-)

You will like it, trust me, it brings back the fun of making music  :-)
And its got good midi support, so you can use your gear. :lol:
