Hi all -
I'm looking for some soundcard advice. I need to build a setup for putting together a demo for an opera. The composer has done a score reduction in Finale 2001. It's mostly 4-part now, and he's ready to start moving from the score reduction into individual instrument tracks.
I'm looking for a soundcard with good general MIDI sounds for orchestra instruments and a line input for audio tracks. I'm thinking that we'll build up the instrumental tracks, and bring in some singers and home record vocal parts for the moment - then once the project is further along, probably re-record the vocal tracks in a studio setting.
Does anyone have any soundcard suggestions that will give us reasonable track sounds? I suppose another possibility is an external synth, but I've never looked into them - again, any suggestions would be welcome.
Thanks - Peter
