    Hi All, I'm working a project with the subject materials. I've layered a Bright Acoustic Piano with an Acoustic Grand Piano in HALion. No FX other than EQ. I've tried several of my favorite EQs from my own acoustic piano playing through mics into Cubase as well as most of the presets given...

    floppy disc insanity

    the discs haven't gone bad. If they had then the piano wouldn't be able to read them and play. I woke the hood up with Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue ~ 6 this morning!! Still when I remove the disc from the piano's control box and put them into the Yamaha disc drive I get the popup about...

    Thanks to both of you. I'm a solo pianist composer/performer and I have "fans"(?) who would like to learn some of the pieces I've written. I would also like to have the scores that go with my CDs. I do need first and second time bars and will check out Sibelius. Current budget is small and...

    upgrade to Cubase 7 from elements 7, how/where?

    I need the scoring capability that Cubase 7 offers. the basic scoring of Elements 7 just isn't cutting it. However I can't find Cubase 7 anywhere. The steinberg site offers Elements 7 and then jumps to the Cubase 8 series offerings and I'm not ready to spend that kind of $$. Where can I get...
