hey guys
I'm 14, big into my music, love sound engineering and technology. I've decided to start building a studio (basic one). What I want to be able to do is record songs on my guitar onto a PC and mix em nice and good.
I was given (well, permanently loaned) a m-audio firewire solo interface by a sound engineer friend. he also gave me cubase LE. So right now all I need is a good pair of cheap monitors (i'm 14 remember).
I won't be needing a mic yet, as i'll be playing direct into the interface.
One problem, i want drums. I don't have drums. I'm not gonna get drums. See my point? lol. I was thinking a drum MIDI trigger pad would be clever. Something that has USB. What do yall think? I also would like a MIDI controller so i can do all the synth effects and such, just stuff to touch up my songs a bit. i don't know much about how midi works, so help me out here. would i need another program to run the controller and drum trigger pads? would it work with cubase le? how do i record em?? thanks guys
peace out
