producing tunes...but which software?!

I haven't used it myself but I've head some good things about Mackie's Traktion. Which is basically a sequencer in the cubase sense (rather than a tracker) but only costs about $150

Myself I use Cubase SL 2, of which i bought second hand for about 150 Euro, so that's not too bad either. I use this in conjunction with a Creamware Scope system, some VSTi's (Battery, Albino 2, ImpOscar) and a Nord Rack II.

Anyone use this program rewired with Reason?...looks to be perfect for those Reason users who want VST integration.

well I don't use it but yes, ReWire into Cubase should work perfectly. I used to ReWire ReBirth into Cubase VST all the time.

Sorry, I meant Traktion 2...

I've seen mixed reviews about this program. I've been using exclusively Reason 3.0 to make music...with some outside recordings via Adobe Audition. Always looking to expand (with an eye on cost) into a better sequencer and VST support would be nice...Eventually want better harware as well...currently on M-audio Ozone
