it's always worth poking around in your bundled software to see if you got a lite version of ableton live or whatever somewhere.  i think i got one with my interface or possible my controller.

I just found the Ableton Live Lite license that came with my Focusrite. Activated it, and got version 9. Sure it's only 8 channels, but that's enough to handle a couple percussion, bass, lead, vocals, and a few more for miscellaneous. Create buses for those in Reason, bounce them, and load them up into Live.

I've had a go with soundflower on my mac but it seems like too much of a pain.  rewiring or bouncing your channels or busses into a VST host is really the way if you want to try out goodies like this.  it's always worth poking around in your bundled software to see if you got a lite version of ableton live or whatever somewhere.  i think i got one with my interface or possible my controller.

It doesn't help that Soundflower is in a state of developmental flux.

And I'm using an old definition of "flux" here that means "infection of bacillic dysentery."
