I think you should be able to "just record" a MIDI track in Anvil Studio. I'll try it in Anvil Studio later and see. Most DAWs let you use either method.

That's sort of a vague description, so it's hard to know what might be happening. What is it about the WAV file that sounds different? It might help if you were to post an example of both a final WAV file and the actual project files it was created from-- not necessarily one of your songs; even...

Generally speaking a DAW might have two different ways of recording data directly from a keyboard. One way is to simply record the incoming MIDI data to the track and capture each Note On and Note Off event as it occurs, such that each note's duration is exactly as you played it. The other way...

Okay, I just had a look at the User's Guide for the WK-7600, and there is an "Accompaniment MIDI Out" function (see page E-133), so I assume you'll need to turn that on if you want to record the auto accompaniment. It looks like you can also turn each of the keyboard's 32 parts on or off with a...

When you add a MIDI track to a project, many (most?) DAWs automatically default the track to listen for MIDI data on all available MIDI channels and on all available MIDI devices. What you need to do is add a separate MIDI track for each MIDI channel that you want to record, then set each...

I take it you're a Wheel of Time fan? Hello from a fellow fan. :)

Are you talking about GarageBand for Mac, or GarageBand for iOS? This page seems to confirm what you said, but I don't know if the information is up-to-date. I don't think GarageBand supports the VST format; I believe third-party plug-ins must be in the AU format. Edit: You did mention the...

You should be able to install a plug-in just about anywhere you want and Mixcraft 7 should be able to find it. As for a plug-in's presets, I assume their location is dictated more by the plug-in than by Mixcraft? Try the following to see if it helps: Click on the File menu and select...

Oh, okay. I just download the update and seldom bother about reading "what's new." ;)

The emails and web ads for the Live update discounts do emphasize Push, but the discounts apply to any upgrade, with or without Push-- except for upgrading from Live Lite to Live Intro, which isn't enough of a move up for Ableton to offer a discount.

Every year in early June Ableton offers their best discount on Live. They offer discounts several times each year, but the discount in June is always the biggest one. I was disappointed because this year the June discount was only 25%, whereas in prior years it was 30%. It made me sorry that I...

I have no experience with Spectrasonics and their products, but I've just bookmarked their site so I can go check them out later when I have more time. And if they have any free demos, I'll try them out and let you know what I think. :) Steinberg invented VST technology. I do have the cheapest...

There are many, many high-quality plug-ins, soft synths, and sample libraries. Of the various free and not-free soft synths that I have, the best are probably Arturia's V Collection: https://www.arturia.com/products/analog-classics/v-collection/overview However, my opinion is no doubt...

Are you going to be playing a keyboard in gigs? If so, then buying an actual keyboard instrument (i.e., that makes sounds) is often preferred by keyboardists because then they don't need to cart around and hook up a computer system wherever their gigs take them. But if you're just going to be...

Thank you, this looks very helpful! My only gripe is that they put the actual download links way down near the bottom of the very long page, but at the top of the page is one of those ads with a huge green "Download Now" button that has nothing to do with the USBDeview utility. The button in the...

I know there's an algorithm or function that can, with moderate success, "separate" two sounds from each other-- you can still hear one sound in the other sound's file, but it's greatly muted-- although I don't know if anyone has created a plugin for it. What I saw was presented as a sort of...

I should think that just about any DAW, sequencer, or other MIDI app that can send MIDI messages to a device should be able to do something like that, although you'd obviously need to set it up, and the specific setup-- as well as options for triggering the sends-- might vary a good bit from...

Right, an older keyboard without a USB port would need a USB-MIDI adapter for connecting directly to the computer. The OP had asked if he could just buy one of those rather than needing to get an audio interface that has MIDI ports, so that's what I was responding to. But you're absolutely...

You don't need to use MIDI ports on an audio interface. You can just connect the keyboard to the computer; it won't interfere with an audio interface, and vice versa.

You might want to start by checking the basics. The UR242 interface is USB 2.0, so make sure you're connecting it to a USB 2.0 port on your MacBook Pro, rather than a USB 3.0 port. 3.0 is supposed to be backward-compatible with 2.0, but I've heard cases where a problem with a DAW not detecting...
