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? |

Ever seen a piano play itself? I mean the ones with a roll of paper inside, with holes punched in it, that the piano reads and plays back as notes.
That's what midi is - note information for instruments. But it includes all the performance information to play anything that understands the language - midi. The instruments can be hardware boxes full of sounds (sound modules), synths and keyboards that have their own sounds and virtual instruments. All they need is a midi in socket to receive the performance information you send them. You can write the performance information (midi data) by recording your performance as midi data onto your workstation, or programming it in direct. Good luck! |
