Today I read an interesting artical that the iPhone by Apple inc, will have a lite version of Final Cut Pro. The lite version will allow you to cut and peice together your movies using the new ProRS422 codec. What I think would even be better is if they put a version of Soundtrack on it. What more fun can you have than to make music with your fingers tips. Just think of the possibility’s and the endless hours. Or to just be allowed to take your project file with you to complete it and then share it or make a podcast out of it right there on the fly. You’d beable to upload it and share it right away considering the iPhone is connected to the network in the first place. Now Apple if you catch this remeber who thought of it. In fact contact me and we’ll talk. For the rest of the people . Please Leave comments below on what you think
Acid Loops
Sony’s Acid Loops is still one of my favorites to use and work with. I worked for Sonic Foundry when they produced Acid 1.0. (Sony later bought the line up of music creation and video editing software sometime 2002) I still remember the day when it released. It was an underground promotion where every one in the building was invited to Las Vegas. Everyone ran around the streets and put up signs stating Acid is available. The police didn’t take to kind to this type of promotion considering they thought Acid was the drug and not a music program. it was a guerrilla warfare between Acid and Cubase. signs were ripped down only to be put back up. The streets were littered with fallen promotions. But yet the crowed was eager to see what Acid was all about. It was most exciting teaching newcomers about our product and how to use it. People were amazed on how easy it was to create a song with the existing loop library’s we had at the time. People were lining up to create their own tracks and ready with money to buy the new software from a unknown company. Ahh I miss those day’s.
LOOPS IN MOTION
Welcome to the World of “Loops in Motion”. This is a tale of how an average guy like myself is attempting to use the web to it’s fullest potential without incurring much cost to make money. First i like to tell you that i have worked in music for the majority of my life. I am a musician, Dj and web designer. I know web designer what does that have to do with loops in motion. Well it has a lot to do if you didn’t really read this. Since I do web design I don’t have to hire someone to create a site for my loops for apple’s soundtrack pro program. I can do this myself with out extra cost.
Each week I would like to set up a discussion based on the loops, programs that uses loops and instruments that you use to create loops. I will not focus solely on Apple’s soundtrack pro or apple’s garageband, but will focus on all the loop based programs such as Sony’s Acid, or Cubase, Logic Pro, Fruity loops, Pro Audio and Reason.
This week’s discussion is however based on Apple’s Soundtrack and how it compares with Sony’s Acid (by the way did you know the same person created both program s a fella by the name of Chris Mulious)
