Help transferring Cubase tunes to live band setup

Hey folks

 

I'm new to this so go easy...

 

Basically, I have been writing a load of songs using guitars, Cubase (sequencer/synths etc) and Reason (drums) to pretty good effect.

 

Now I want to use this in a live band scenario - and also bring a bit more of an electro/dance sound to the band, which sounds a little more 'rock' at present.

 

Excuse the plug, but to get an idea of what we're trying to achieve our tracks can be found at:

I have a Dell XPS 1530, with 4GB dual core and 4GB RAM.

 

I have absolutely no idea about hardware sequencers or anything, but I'v just got Ableton Live 7, though no idea how to use it yet.

 

Could anyone please offer advice on how to transform our vibe to the live stage?

 

Thanks guys!

Ableton Live comes with a load of great tutorials and will do the job just fine :)

 

For inspiration, there's this:

 

You can use Reason in Live without any trouble by using Rewire - see http://www.propellerheads.se/substance/rewirehelp/index.cfm?fuseaction=get_article&article=live0

 

You didn't say if you had an audio interface; if that's not in the collection you probably want to have this, so you can send a click track to the drummer and the rest to the mixer.

Cheers mate. Really appreciate the help! :)

 

Is there any kind of way to trigger this srt of thing using a stomp box or something similar?

 

Thanks again!
