I have 3 synths that I want to sequence and eventually record to audio, as I build up parts of my song (intro, verse, chorus, etc.).
Would it be more efficient to use an MPC 2500 to MIDI Sequence them & then record their audio outputs into a DAW using my Mackie 1220i or just buy a MIDI-USB Interface, MIDI-plug the synths into it and sequence them in the DAW's Step Edit/Piano Roll?
I'm on Windows, so any suggestions as to which DAW would provide both above average MIDI recording & editing? Reaper is pretty cheap in terms of price, but I don't have knowledge on it's editing & recording abilities.
thanks a bunch!
