Can't live without my Evolution MK249C. All depends on how many keys and knobs you want, some like fewer keys, some like a lot but generally=20 the more knobs the better! -----Original Message----- From: Cedric Theys [mailto:cedzep678@xxxxxxxxx]=20 Sent: 09 June 2003 05:50 To: fruityloops@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [fruityloops] Keyboard controler Hi all! I just subscribed to this list so I hope this works! I had FruityLoops for a long time but don't spend as much time on it as I should. My main difficulty is to translate what I hear in my head to the computer via a mouse. I was wondering if a simple keayboard/MIDI controler wouldn't be easier. I tried the computer keayboard but that sucked badly:) I'm trying to force myself into the computer music realm because there is so much I want to do with it and that I know I can do. Just for anyone's info I play bass, guitar, Chapman Stick and just purchased an upright bass and also sing.... I'm not too much of a mouse clicker as you can see:) But when i listen to Laswell, Karsh Kale or some Midival Punditz, I know I need to get in this! So let me know if you advise a keayboard controler and if yes which ones and also what are the important features that I should look into. Thanks already!
