I am a public school music teacher who is thinking about getting a new iBook to use as a portable music making tool. Here's what I would like to do with it:
1. Sequence backing tracks in various musical styles for my students to play along with in class. I'd want to burn these backing tracks onto cd and bring them into the classroom so my kids can jam to a calypso-style "This Land Is Your Land" or whatever. What would be good software to do this with an iBook? 2. Record my own music and my students music either live or track by track - what is the best way to get sound into an iBook? 3. Begin to explore the world of software synths. Which ones are easy to use and can interact well with the software/hardware used for the above two items? I hope that's clear enough. I'd appreciate any suggestions. If there's anyone answering who lives in the NYC area and can help me in person with this I'd be really grateful. Thank you for supporting public education. |

Hi everybody,
I´m working on a iBook 700 Mhz with Motu 828 under Mac OSX. After several years of good ol´ Mac OS 9, i switched completely to OS X. Was a goog decision. Maybe everybody will have noticed that MIDI just rocks under Mac OS X. I work with reason and logic a lot, but when it comes down on editing audio, I prefer Celemonys‘ Melodyne. It‘s a absolutely killer application!! Those guys recently updated their software to version 1.5. I just extremely recommend everybody who works with monophonic instruments (lead intruments, melodic, no chords) to download the demo (-> http://www.celemony.com/melodyne/Demos.html) and check out how audio can be handled (similar to editing Midi) with Melodyne. If your´re a professional who is used to work with Autotune for exp. and your not satified (how can you?), you´ll find what you need in Melodyne. I also use it to create new sounds out of it. Imagine morphing a tenor sax into a blues harp, in realtime. To me it´s THE MAC OS X programm. Best_goldmike |
