DAWs useless for jamming thanks to Cantabile

I wasted much money and time fighting against DAW crashes & idiosyncrasies, and after years I realized just now that I don’t need a DAW any more

This because I just like jamming with my DIY keytar, using a few plugins to build an automatic accompaniment quickly

Cantabile is perfect for that, and its amazing routing capabilities, together with its clean GUI, the many configuration options, the stability, the auto-record feature, and yet the low IT footprint make it my loyal companion

Just as a note:

If you ever decide to sync a Daw with Cantabile on the same computer, I use Blue Cat Connector. For me, it has cured the the long standing discussions about Cantabile becoming a vst. Maybe not for others.

No…I am not paid supporter for Blue Cat. (although I should be) :grin:

Thanks for the tip, but I doubt I will use a DAW for jamming, considering that I just love that, and I am actually reselling both Ableton Live and Bitwig: The first one for the constant crashes, the second one because none of my 2 controllers works

Well, I think I have to keep the little one just in case I want to build some multitrack song, even if the new Scaler 3 maybe able to give this feature: time will tell

Even if I suspect that the MIDImix is faulty because I cannot have the sliders acting on one key-set only (2 of the sliders activate 2 sliders of the other key-set as well), and the 2 first slider works in the opposite way (up vs down) compared to the others

Well, this can be stuff for another thread
