Ok, let me say that I have played piano for a long time, and own a few keyboards. Hey, I have an SK-1 even. Didn't realize they were that cool until I started reading through this forum. Mines not pink, though.
Anyway...
Can you all answer a few questions.
I want to use it for Sonar 2. (Haven't quit gotten enough scratch for 3 yet) Basically, I want to use it just at home, to run the midi device in Sonar. I'm tired of point at click notation. How do you do this? With a midi controller? And what's the difference between a midi controller and a key board that has midi out on it. By the way, I'm using an Audigy 2 Platinum ex. (please, don't flame the sound card, I've already gotten enough of that on other boards)
I am looking for something between 100-250.
I really know nothing about using midi on the computer, so if you could even recommend a web site that will get me started, that would be great. Or, if you have time, maybe you could lay down some basic concepts of midi, and how to use an external midi device to input music into Sonar.
Thanks!
