Arturia Storm 3

Arturia Storm 3 is a program that allows you to take on whole projects in one main window view. You can also use piano roll like most other music midi creation softwares that are out. You can edit patterns, control mixer channels and midi sequences. You have complete control of your song in one main window without the window being over crowded so you will have no need for a extra monitor with this program,.

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

Arturia storm 3 was on my pc and I used for about a few months before moving on to another programs. It even comes with a lot of instrumentals that are ready right off the bat for your songs. Thanks to the studio overview layer you can hear all of your instruments in real time with the effects on them. Its all right in front of you with this program. The sequencer allows for full control as well, you can used audio, midi or pattern based sequences. Most all programs can do this though, the thing that makes this program stand out is what I said before, its all in one window. No need for all the extra windows popping up.

OVERALL OPINION

Overall Arturia Storm 3 is a solid program, really cant say too many negative things about it. It isn’t powerful enough like some of the other programs likes pro tools , fl studio, Cubase, acid pro. Most people haven’t even heard of Arturia Storm and I haven’t heard of it until I had a chance to use the demo version of it and decided to purchase the full version after falling in love with the layout of it. But not being able to use all of my vst in it was a deal breaker for me. Most of the standard vst wouldn’t work with this program and that wont work for me because my whole workflow is through vst’s. So if you aren’t into a lot of vst’s then give this one a shot.

The software installs easily on a P4, but you have to install the software before removing the virus, if you do not respect this, and many can not install the log. it is very easy to configure.

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

P4 2.5 gig with 256 mega ram, 7200 rpm hard drive, card Midiman audiophile.
The software actually works well with this config, but it is desirable to have mga 512 or more for a more optimal functioning, especially with lots of wave files.

This app is powerful trs, trs has a good sound reproduction, STORM 3.0 is moving increasingly to the big leagues with this version we got in the world of Pro MIDI music and sample e.

OVERALL OPINION

I use the software for 2 weeks and it works well trs, what I like about the new STORM is the cot of the professional version, as well as possible Midi and audio quality.

Before moving on I used Fruity Loops STORM is good but less friendly, and also Reason 2.5 is good too, but not easy to use.

As for the prices they report quality is exceptional.

This is the Soft Ball!
If I had to choose again, I would do without this choice hsitation.

Personally, I had no problem installing over version 3, and if there is problem you can optenir your key over the Internet or softphone (nice and availability)
-I happened to have on qq inconsistency of the sound card drivers.
Honntement-YES, use is simple, and even for beginners there is a wizard when composition ..
Arturia as a Socit-made in France, the manual is Fran, and trs well Designed and Retailer

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

- CM Asus A7N8X-E Deluxe
- Athlon XP 2500 +
- 1 GB Ram in dual
- Western Digital Raptor HDD 10,000 T / M
- Pending a Pro sound card, I use Nvidia nforce audio ASIO and ASIO4ALL grant.
- Storm3 runs without problem
- Performance! no sound card pro I am delighted
- No worries of stability it saturates (qq bug) APRS hours and hours of use

Small precision of 30/09/05:
Evolution requires config (firebox, UF6, new ati drivers)
that it is prciser strom 3 is still far from perf and stability of Reason.
So I take one point

OVERALL OPINION

I use Storm3 since its release in June 04
I prfre! the last module GMsynth synthtiseur a sampled acoustic instruments and electronic is a true Russianness, j'apprcie Arsenic also a vintage synth of the 70 extra! Orphus still a wavetable synth down on him, but complex intrssant trs! particulire EZtrack to mention, a module for recording audio sources (microphone, CD, etc ...)
boxes rhythms are almost all nice and complmentaire
About the effects my preferences back and Dual Reveb delays
I n'apprcie gure concerns Orphus becaufe the first 64 patterns are prprogramms, using the piano roll is free but when you want to change custom settings for audio Fast Fashion such as oscillators and filters etc despite the safeguards they are recharged automatically by default, it lacks only one total freedom. and I would say for the vocoder effect of the same vat in it, one small complaint is tatillion say the use of piano roll and patterns, which are a bit small.
I am "stormeur" since version 1.5 and 3 is a suite russi correcting the problem of the old version while having Whereas volumes.
Frankly given the wealth of both content and quality of these, the ratio / price is more than adequate
If c'tait re-make would not hsiter, I look forward to the 4 ......

Prcison of 30/09/05:
Unfortunately I have to turn a point also because it is equally easy to use as the squenceur dire need of stability and optimization.
eg cracking / latency read / write and instability of the chart with gear and a DAW, the problem is not with Reason or cubase ...
So far amlior version 4 is required ...
