Of course it's possible. I can read and write music, but still find it easier to throw stuff down onto a page or into reason and rearrange it until it sounds good.

Not that it actually takes much time or effort to learn to read music.

and by throw it down on a page, I mean write it in without listening, then nudge things around until they sound reasonably comfortable listening.

Yes, you can compose some really good music without ever writing down notes or being able to sight read notes.

What you do need is a basic understanding of chords, harmony, and music theory. You also are going to just need a natural talent.

For example, I can read and write music but I'm not terrible good at it. When I'm writing, I know that when I'm adding some harmony to a lead vocal, I know that I'm singing a major third above the melody and which notes to go to in order keep things consistent within the key. I never write any of this shit down.

your tutorial should be a music theory class offered at your high school or college.

regarding Sawyer; indeed.

oh sweet satan i love sawer ... when i heard that stock casio sound i knew i was gonna use it

  >>3926
Sawer is decent, but there are other plugins that can get closer to that super saw sound, like, well, AToD Supersaw and Syncaine TM-200X. Haven't had a problem with 'em yet...

Check this track I posted. That was made using FL Studio 9. I used a few stock effects and a few of my nicest plugs, Korg MS-20, AudioRealism Bassline, and Plogue Chipsounds. Also used Fruity Kick for the kick drum, it's the only one that sounds good to me.

Another little trick I discovered was throwing an LFO on the main tempo to get a swing effect, alternating between 86 and 160 bpm. Delay effects don't work with that, but if you do it right, it sounds great.

>>3935
perfect! I actually hadn't reseached all the cards that were available for the mixer yet. That's a perfect solution, as we actually have a MoTU 828mk3 available to us, which has 16 ADAT lightpipe I/O's on it. Problem solved.

I've actually never bothered with ADAT stuff before, but I'm sure it won't flummox me too bad if I get in there and play with it beforehand. Thanks again, dude. I let you know if it happens at all, and how it goes!

basically, due to time and money constraints, its got reduced to just a stereo feed. But when we have the money, we'll definitely be able to multitrack record the shows our club does. Woo!

As far as cheap and good MIDI interfaces go, M-Audio is king. They have a plethora of options available, ranging from no frills to billions of assignable knobs. There's too many to list here, but they're all of more than decent quality.

I hear logic 9 has a pretty useful mode called "center stage" for live application, but I've not tested it and it probably isn't in your price point.

You may want to invest in two DI boxes, which is what a competent sound man would plug your L and R output into before plugging it into the sound system.

>>3949
It's called MainStage and it's been a part of Logic Studio since it was introduced with Logic Pro 8.
Despite owning it, I too have not used it - probably worth researching.
Also: if you want both audio and MIDI and are on a budget I wholeheartedly recommend the Edirol UA-25EX, and heartily despise any and all M-Audio interfaces.

>>3950
yeah, I meant 8. I never upgraded from 7 due to lack of funds.

My m-audio has been fantastic, but then again I do little more than plug it up and play in the studio. I've heard real weighted keys break all the time and semi weighted is the way to go.
