Re: [Lmms-users] LMMS like MAGIX Music Maker?

[Jeremy <je...@au...>]

Hello Gerhard,

This can be done, you have to keep some things in mind though. The band 
has to be very tight (clicktrack) in the first place. Then your choice 
of recording software. I'm using qtractor at the moment. Next thing is 
the sequence in which you record/export. What works bets for me is to 
create a beat/base in LMMS, export and import it in qtractor, record all 
the overdubs, export and import those as samples in LMMS and then do 
some production with effects and maybe some extra instruments/samples 
within LMMS. I'm not very experienced yet but I'm slowly getting there:

Ok, it's an electrorock track but I'm intending to use LMMS also for my 
own indierock band.

Good luck!

Jeremy
