  1. Wow! It sounds like a lot of fun! Oh! I just remembered some things... If my keyboard comes with a driver installer CD, should I install it before or after I install the DAW and audio editor programs or does it not really matter at all? So, how do you tell the DAW program what tempo you are playing at when you are inputting a MIDI data via playing the electrical instrument analogously? I would suspect that it will be different from one program to another. I you don't mind me asking a personal question, how long does it take for you to compose a single project now that you are a pro with music related programs? What about the "gods" of the composers? When you say that there are "better" programs out there, do you mean they are easier to use, can perform more detailed task, or both of them with some more stuff that I don't know? Thanks a lot for the education! I guess musicians DO have great attitude. I wish other forums also have members like you.() P.S.: Ah! I completely missed you very last sentence! I just noticed it after I finished writing my reply. So...HELL Yeah!!!!(Well, at least it is for us melancholies...)() Reminds me of the feeling when I finished performing my remixed "Force your Way" from FFVIII at a small concert held by my music school.
  2. Halo...uh...I'm a bit nervous... Hi, I'm a newbie...uh...well, not really... I do have some arranging experience before with my Technics SX-KN2600 Keyboard. I can pretty much copy a music and make a sequencer for the piece in question and then perform with it.(oh great, now I'm confused about my own statement...) Now I really want to try using some computer program to help me with my projects since purely using my keyboard to do all the sequencing and arrangements can get really confusing and time consuming because of the machine's limitations. I've tried playing around with ACID Pro6.0a and did get quite a good picture of how to use it. It's just that I can't figure out how to record the pan settings on a track and the meaning of those "nodes"(I think it's what it was called...). I'm thinking of trying Audacity that Zircon recommended. If I may, I would like to ask a few questions: How easy is it to master the program? Is there any kind of tutorial literature that can help me study the program? What is "soundfont"?(Have mercy! Please don't hit me!) How do I connect my keyboard to the program? Do I need Finale? Are effects like modulation, echo, and that-machine-gun-speed-sound-repetition supposed to be created with different program?
