I have recently bought a new I Mac 700 MHz, and am anxious to make some music with it...I need some advise.
I want a program to compose and arrange music...I want to use my synthesizer via midi, as well as use outside audio like voice, guitar, sound loops etc...
I want to be able to manipulate sounds, cut and drag, and notate. I also want the capability to receive audio from my mini disc player.
I have been researching Cubase and think it would be perfect. Any thoughts on this program, and whether it might be right for me? Which version?
Would I need to by a sound card as well as the software?
I know I have a lot of questions, but ANY advice and/or wisdom would be much appreciated...
