Hi
I've been surfing the net to find a USB MIDI interface which will work with my Intel iMac using 10.5. I'm a bit confused and would welcome any advice. I would like to connect my Yamaha PSR 550 to the Mac and use Garageband. I also have an acoustic guitar and would like to buy a mic and also be able to connect this and also record vocals. I think I need a 'condensor' mic for this? So in short, I need a USB Midi device with Mic for vocal (and mic for acoustic guitar without a pickup), and Midi input. I would rather spend a bit more on something with all these features than a 1 MIDI in/ 1 MIDI out cheapo wire, but I don't want to end up paying for things I will never use as a beginner amateur. I've seen some bad feedback on some models which don't yet have drivers for 10.5. Can anyone help recommend some hardware?! Thanks in advance. Hannah |

I plugged in the speakers from my PC and for once I got to say, "that was easy!" I'm still waiting for my interface to arrive. Hopefully I'll get to use that phrase again when i hook it up to record.
Thanks everyone!!!!! |
