Hey,
I'm pretty much new to recording.
I have some questions.
From my knowledge, [which is most likely wrong..xD] a mixer is a device used to control the EQ and volume and such of different imports, such as different instruments, yes?
Is it absolutely necessary to record with a mixer?
Because I'm pretty sure that if I used one I would get hecka confused.
What would be the pros and cons of using a mixer?
Haha, if I'm totally wrong, please correct me.
Also, if I'm making a beat for a song I'm mixing, would it be easier to get a Pad Controller? [Eh, I'm not sure what to call it.] Like the Akai MPC2500?
Haha well, I don't think I'm going to buy the 2500 because of it's price, but would it be beneficial to get a Controller like that, perhaps the Akai MPD24 since I'm just starting off, rather than just using my keyboard? [It's a Yamaha YPT-400, with drums sets and what not on it.] I'm not sure if it would do the same thing...
I'm pretty confused with MIDI too.
I use Sony Acid Music Studio 7, and I'm still having troubles transferring voices that are on my keyboard. Is that even possible?
Dang. I sound like a clueless idiot.
[Maybe because that's exactly what I am xD]
I haven't really gotten that deep into recording.
It's actually a little intimidating to be, but I think I'm getting it.
Thanks!
