i just have a bunch of questions about mIDI
i know you first need a soundcard that can do midi, such as the audiophile 2496.
and i know you need a "controller", like a keyboard basically.
so you hook up the midi out of the controller to the midi in on your soundcard, and that's all the connections you need to make, right?
-----
after that, i'm utterly confused.
how do you "record" midi? do you need a special program to do it? a sequencer of some sorts? i use cool edit pro, and i know it doesn't have midi capabilites.
how would i "record" it so that i could use it in cool edit pro?
would i need to use a program like cubase to utilize midi?
after you sequence everything, then do you convert it into a wav. file? or is that even possible?
could i record the midi in another program, while tracking with cool edit pro? like have cool edit playing the drums and guitar, and play over it on a different program? and then convert to wav and dump it in cool edit?
oog....
thanks
