I want to get a software to start recording music, both virtual music and live, direct input (guitars, voices, even drums sometimes). I find Garageband pretty weak. Is it Pro Tools rather than Logic that I need ? Or something else?
(Please do not baffle me with talk of MIDI etc.) I presume I also need to buy a soundcard (which will go in one of the empty PCI slots). If so, which one? Does the fact that I am going to buy that Formac Studio TVR (or CANOPUS ADVC 110) to convert vhs to digital make any difference to anything? |

Thats right Midi is quite simply put, just a "Trigger" . It is used to activate something, whether a sampling program, external sound module, or your elecric keyboard (Triton etc.). As for a good studio set up, I see someone already recommended a Pro Tools Mbox. How much are you looking to spend. The statement that pro tools systems only run on digidesign sound cards is not true. You do not have to use your sound card in your computer to run any Pro Tools rig!!!!!! On every Pro Tools LE interface there are inputs and stereo outs. Also one year ago it could be said that pro tools and midi dont go together. Not the case anymore. The newest versions of pro tools supports midi quite easily and efficiently. But like i said how much are you looking to spend. Unfortunatly in audio that is the first question we all have to ask our selfs. Let me know!
