Experiences with Easy Beat... not MIDI export :-(

[NCGM]

When I create a drum track with various parts, I play the full pattern in realtime as a drummer would and then very lightly quantise in Cubase with Match Quantise, which bases the quantise on say a bass line that I would have played in realtime to a click track, thus preserving an actual human feel. I use either a keyboard or drum pads to perform the parts. I think the modern PC versions of Cubase do not have the Match Quantise function for some reason; perhaps Steinberg learned from user feedback that nobody used it much?

In this (http://www.fora.gr/wmc/software.html) website is mentioned a version 1.01 for BeOS platform, though I'm not sure if it's the same software, because the description doesn't match with a drum machine.

There is another mention to EasyBeat for BeOS here: http://www.driceland.com/cgi-bin/rhum3.pl?msg=50,6, but no mention about version.

A part from that... I haven't found anything else on Google

From the screenshot in the second link, it's certainly the same program, but no note on a version for the Falcon.

I did note in the article that these were hard to find, just hoped it wouldn't be as hard as this though

I tend to build the pattern in Cubase's drum editor page, unless it's using the sampler then it's all in key editor as I can then see the timing as I'm working.
