Hi all. I need some serious help in making some music on my Powerbook. Can I use the input in the back (I have a G3 400, 192Mb ram)? I have a USB Midi converter (Steinberg), but don't have a USB audio unit (ie roland UA-3). I was thinking of downloading Pro-Tools Free, is this a good place to start? I just need to make demos, I'm not recording pro CDs (yet). I am totally confused by all the software choices there is out there. Is there anyone out there who works on a G3 Powerbook who can guide me? I'm near Toronto, Canada, and I'm used to recording with MIDI equipment. Audio on the computer is another question. HEEEEELP! Thanks to all........mark

Thanks Musoman it is 1/8 you are correct and I already have the little adaptors to go from 1/4 to 1/8. I will run the mic mixer into that huh? It's all just a routing thing i am realizing, I mean I could also run my sequences back out via MIDI thru the casio into my boombox and record my vocal in the kareoke function on the boombox. But it's better to run a mic in the computer so i can do vocal overdubs and background vocals. I will look for a solid mic/mixer with 1/4. And if that puts vocals in onto the audio in Cakewalk I am done.
Now how can I get sound to go out to my box from the powerbook? How can it be hooked up to the boombox? I would prefer to play my sequences with the vocals and backing vocals completed out through my home stereo. It's more notes and tracks than the casio will manage if running it all thru the casio into the stereo. I'd rather run all my cakewalk audio/midi tracks out of the computer from the sequencer into my home stereo. Now would be SLAMMIN'! But I didn't see in the G3 manual how the powerbook can feed sound out to a stereo system. |
