Hi guys!
Please help me. I need all the recommendations that i can possibly get from this group.. Here's the scene: I am a keyboardist[musician] and haven't used my keyboards with a Mac/Pc using Midi. I know what it can do but haven't tried it. I believe a midi interface is best for this setup. What is a good brand that will work with Mac since I will be soon exploring Mac as well. Also, what is a good audio interface and a good software? Is Garage Band enough? Im not sure though if Gband supports midi. I have read about M-audio. Is this a good brand? MOtu is a bit expensive  If there are complete starter kits out there, please let me know. Are there suppliers here? I am looking for a Sonar Power Studio-like gear that will work for Mac and PC.Thanks for reading! Best Regards, dp |

Dipp welcome to 'The Hood'. Asking which piece of equipment is: 'Better/Best' you'll get a million opinions. Here's mine....RME. I have seen one or two of them for sale in the Mac Forum Classifieds. There are alot of M-Audio Interface users here, I think? Only recall hearing 1 "Bad" story about M-Audio... But, for the best advice on Equipment/Software ask: Sound On Sound Music Mag out of England... Register and read to your hearts content or capacity... You name it, they have reviewed it.
Wait an extra week or month until you save enough to buy the 'Best' you can... Don't buy a cheap Interface, you'll only have to buy a better one later... Buy Good, Buy Once. You will be working for many days, weeks and years... Purchase with that in mind. |
