Thanks for the reply - The Novation ones seem a little pricey for what I am after - though the drum pads seem useful, though presumabley I could make a drum track with just the keys? Do you have an idea which casio/yamaha ones I should look at, and would they have good compatibility with...

Hi all, I am interested in adding a MIDI keyboard to complete my set up - I am using a Behringer 404hd Audio Interface, and will most likely be getting Reaper as my DAW, and would like a keyboard to make adding in simulated instruments easier (I assume I can set the instrument simulator I want...

Hi guys, I've got myself hooked up with the guitar and Behringer 404hd interface, but am instantly out of my depth with the software! Ideally, I'd like something the will let me 'simulate' amps for guitar whilst playing and recording - at the moment the audacity I am using only seems to let me...

Thanks! That's a big help, and the issue with the PC doing two things at once makes a lot of sense! I feel like I know where to start now! A

Hi all, I'd like to start recording music again, which I haven't done since I was a teenager on an 8-track which recorded to a zip drive (!), and have no idea where to start! It's mostly for fun and personal interest, and I plan to record in my living room, and am not expecting great results...
