If you already know a little bit about beat maker software and have a Digital Audio Workstation then this might be for you. Stylus RMX is called a groove-based software plugin, so let’s unpack what that is. Groove-based means that the software breaks down beats to grooves meaning that even when a loop is broken down to its simplest form it is still contained within an identifiable groove or recognizable beat. You won’t be breaking anything down to a singular note or percussive instrument.
This package is a plugin for another host software package which means it is not usable on its own. Host software that can load and run Stylus RMX must be able to utilize one of the following plugin platforms: VST, AU, AAX, and RTAS.
Digital Audio Workstations (DAWs) such as Logic Pro, Pro Tools, and Reaper can all load Stylus RMS. Although the Ronin Asylum Recording Studio uses and recommends Pro Tools as a DAW, Reaper is a more affordable alternative that works great. If all of this sounds crazy or confusing you may not be ready for a DAW plugin and should take a look at a standalone beat maker like Dr. Drum.
