Just wondering what programs (sequencers) everyone uses to program drum n bass beats/songs.

My friend just uses cubase of fruity loops to build some sick ass drum loops, then dumps them into his sampler, and uses a midi controller to mute and unmute the loops, and loads samples as he plays to make live DnB. It works really well, and my other friend does the same with bass lines. They are called Mange de la Bass. Good stuff. This is for live gigs, but in the studio, most of them are using Cubase. Very simple stuff to use. I just use an mmt8, but I'm wierdand have to do things the hard way.

I now use logic, just made the switch from cubase, I find the midi timing to be a lot tighter than cubase ever was, great for D&B where you can't afford for the beats to sounds sloppy.

I got a Mac too but I sure as fuck ain't going to sequence on the no feel bastard.It's quite dope for video editing and mastering music on though.I sequence with the mpc.

I now use a combination of this stuff: Sonic Foundry Acid Pro 2 (for sequencing and editing), Wavelab 3 (for editing), Recycle 1.7 (for extracting the samples from loops and sending them to my Emu Sampler), Cakewalk Pro Audio 9 (for sequencing the loop clusters in the Sampler). I also have tons of plug ins that I rely on for processing. Some of my favorites are MaxxBass, Magneto, Waves Renaissance Compressor,.. Geez I dunno the names of em all. Anyway Acid Pro is awesome stuff for drums. I've sequenced drums with many boxes (Atari's, piles of drum machines and sequencers, PC's and whatnot) but nothing gives me the control that Acid does. Try it. I pretty much ingnore everything else now.

You are not alone. I use mostly my MPC for dnb. For everything else my Mac and VST do the trick quite well.

Peace

acid?... 'phrase/loop arranger'... primarily, but you can also create custom beats from single-shot drum samples, not just loops

gotta add that I know a certain pro who uses acid almost exclusively now for sequencing. I am MAD impressed with that program after watching a pro use it to the fullest extent!

acid is also good for live stuff,

you know when someone sees you studio and goes 'can I have a go'

just load up acid and have a folder with about 20 loops that sound good together and leave em to it... in about an hour they have a track that sounds good and they can even take it away with em to show off to.. erm, girls or summit.

I'm interested in this "fruity loops" thing,where can I get it and is it free?I don't use a pc for anything musical(except for putting samples onto floppies) but is it some sort of sequencer like cubase or is it a drum machine thing with editable mods like rebirth?

fruity dont take mods it just takes samples think of it as a drum machine with samples that can also do loops and trigger notes and more, it excells at being a musical sketch pad for me whole songs end up coming out of it though (gimme fruity and a mike and ill make a whole album!)
