I'm absolutely new to this so forgive me for going over old ground.
I've just bought a midiman 2x2 interface to hook my Yamaha P200 electric piano up to my G4 TiBook. I downloaded Pro Tools FREE as something to get started playing on and after a couple of hours I started to understand the basic functions of recording, playback, etc.. What has disappointed me is the quality of my mac's built-in GM sounds  they're awful! I know I can use my P200's piano sounds for midi playback, but what if I want realistic sounding drumkit, saxophone, and digeridoo all playing at the same time!?I've read various web info and I think I need either a hardware expander or a soft synth, but I don't really know where to start. Software sounds a better choice for me as I might be able to try out a few demos rather than buying the wrong piece of hardware! What I want to do at the moment is be able to write multi-track music and listen to a more realistic playback than my mac's midi sounds currently give me. any help appreciated. paul |

QUOTE (BagHun @ Dec 9 2002, 15:08) baghun.... ProTools doesn't not work with VST plugs... it only works with RTAS and Audiosuite Or AS plugs or the full blown ProTools will accept TDM as well but must have farm cards. VST is usually Cubase, Logic, Peak... etc. -------------------- ----------------------------------------
