THANKS FOR THE INFO ON THE COMPUTER SIDE.... I AM JUST NOW REALIZING THERE ARE VARRIOUS SETUPS THAT MAY BE NEEDED, TO DO WHAT I WANTED TO DO. I HAD JUST ABOUT DECIDED ON DIGI 001 BECAUSE OF SOME OF THE BAD PRESS READ ON THE MBOX.. THEN I FOUND OUT IT WAS ABOUT 500 MORE THAN I WANTED TO SPEND. ALSO, LOOKS TO BE OUT OF PRODUCTION, HARD TO FIND. HOWEVER, ALLOT OF GOD THINGS HAVE BEEN SAID ABOUT DIGI 001. THE COMMENTS ON STAYING WITH ANYTHING THAT ALLOWS YOU TO WORK IN PRO TOOLS FORMAT SEEMS TO BE A SMART CHOICE. (COMMENTS)?
I AM SURE IT COULD PROVIDE MORE THAN I WILL EVER NEED. TO SHOW MY IGNORANCE, I DIDNT REALY UNDERSTAND THAT I WOULD NEED A KEYBOARD OR KEYBOARD CONTROLLER UNTILL I STARTED LOOKING INTO THE DIFFERENT SETUPS. IF I WAS ONLY INTERESTED IN CREATING WITH THE INTERNAL MIDI'S I COULD WITHOUT A KEYBOARD RIGHT? AS I UNDERSTAND IT, TO JUST WORK WITHIN THE PROGRAM AND MIX AND EDIT, I COULD USE A SIMPLE SET-UP LIKE :
A.) COMPUTER ( WIN XP), SOFTWARE (PROPELLERHEAD REASON, ABLETON, LIVE,CUBASE SL, SONIC FOUNDREYS SOUND FORGE, ** OR ** A SIMILAR SETUP BUT WITH THE ADDITION OF SOME KIND OF INTERFACE TO GET SOUND INTO THE COMPUTER, LIKE THIS : B.) COMPUTER (WIN XP), KEYBOARD (OPTION), INTERFACE (MBOX,M-AUDIO FIREWIRE 410, MACKIE-XD2, ETC. ) SOFTWARE (SUPPLIED WITH MOST INTERFACES). IS THIS CORRECT ???
CONSIDERING THAT I AM MORE INTERESTED IN CREATING MUSIC WITH MIDI'S WITHIN EXISTING PROGRAMS, NOT PLAYING AN INSTRUMENT, AND THE FACT THAT WITHOUT A INTERFACE, VOCALS COULD NOT BE IMPOTED INTO THE COMPUTER ( OR ANYTHING ELSE!) I BELIEVE SOME SORT OF INTERFACE WOULD BE NEEDED, IF FOR NOTHING ELS BUT VOCALS, AND IF THE INTERFACE COMES WITH ONE OF THE MOST POPULAR FORMATS IN THE INDUSTRY IN PRO TOOLS FORMAT, AND I COULD GET THE INTERFACE AND THE SOFTWARE FOR UNDER 500....I WOULDBE A FOOL NOT TO GO WITH THAT SET UP... I STILL COULD DO THIS WITHOUT A KEYBOARD RIGHT, COULD PICK ON UP LATER ANYWAY...COMMENTS PLEASE! THNAKS ALL !! PCOLA OUT!
