Below is a discription of what I have and what I want to do.
Other equitmend:
My Information on MIDI Musical Equipment is not so big.
So I need to know what I need to make it work. I know I need a master midi
kayboard and a midi interface.
A question here: What additional hardware is needed to get full control over
all funktions of CakeTalking and Cakewalk SONAR,
So now to what I have and what I want to do:
I have 3 syntis here
Access Virus B
Roland JP8080
CLAVIA | NORD RACK 1 (NORDLEAD)
All of the 3 are desktop syntis meaning without kayboard that was a very bad
suprise for me to from buying it from ebay. I thought they have kayboards:-)
But now I know how to make them work.
I want to produce Dance/techno/trance music. With the 3 syntis I allready
have the sounds are not the big problem but the recording and sampling and
sequencing. I also want to start using virtual syntis later when I know how
the basics work.
I have looked for hardware components but everything out there is to
complex.
What is not in there yet is the master midi kayboard because I do not know
witch one to take. For me it is very importend that it has a lot of sliders,
not to many menues but easy menues. What do you think is also very importen
for us as blind users?
Also I do not know witch midi interface I should take and what I need to be
aware of.
Also I am thinking of witch sound card would be best for me. It should have
lots of imputs. I have not realy planed yet what I exaktly need here.
Hm, I think thats enough for the first time.
I am open for discosion suggestions and feedback is very welcome and very
much apprecated.
Also I would like to know witch expirences you have made over the time.
Later I will discribe how I would produce a music track and you can let me
know if it is possible to do so.
Best regards here from Germany
