Can someone recommend a Midi interface company with good drivers compatible with Windows, XP, Win7, 8.. Mac ...etc?

Hello everyone,

Just a quick question about inputs with Logic Pro X.

So I would like to record a few microphones through my Focusrite Saffire Pro 24 DSP, thru Firewire into my Macbook Pro. Then, I want to record MIDI drums from my Alesis DM8 Pro, by USB, into the computer.

I've been using digirack 002 through firewire 400 for years and been working fine on macbook pros but being a mac buff, I'm going to want a newer macbook pro eventually, which means no firewire 400. Definitely not the only one with this problem. But at the same time, I'm getting sick of digidesign's core audio problems and updating indifference.

I hope this is the right forum, if not maybe someone can point me in the right direction.

I'm only researching at this point so I can't tell you what gear I use, because I don't have it yet. But, what I'm hoping to do is record a combination of MIDI and Audio tracks on a computer to be used as backing tracks for live performance. (I perform solo and in a duo).

i am triggering theater sound effects and musical interludes during live performances and I would like to bring my laptop into the picture. I want to trigger the fx via midi keyboard and have a better quality audio OUT than the stock sound card

would you use a PMCIA card type interface or a USB type?
the smaller the device the better.

thanks

I am using Cubase SE and I would like to know how to match the tempo of my project to one of my audio tracks. It sounds like there is a 'timewarp' function that will do this in Cubase SX, but is there any way of doing this in SE? In short, I would like to make 1 bar = the length of one of my audio objects without altering the audio object.

Hello,

I'm about to purchase equipment for my home studio, and right now I'm trying to decide which audio/midi interface will be the best. Some possibilities I'm considering:

M-Audio Firewire 410 or 1810
PreSonus Firebox
E-MU 1616m
Edirol FA-101

ok- i heard one of the veteran posters on here say that you should always chose your software first and then the platform will find itself. i think this makes sense so i am trying to decide which software would best suite my needs.

Hello all,

Just need some suggestions on Audio Midi Sequencer freeware. Sure not big apps like Cubase or Pro Tools, but...
Plz no trial versions or Demos. I need it for educational work at a school, which has no budget now.

Thx for any help.

Best :)

Anybody here have any opinions on the (formerly Hoontech) http://www.staudio… ST Audio "DSP2000 C-Port" audio/midi interface system?
