Mats,
It was a long time ago I know, but did you ever find out how to do this?

I once had an Atari and produced quite a few .sng files
: on the steinberg pro24 sequencer ( which I think became
: Cubase ). My Atari is long gone but I recently found my
: .sng files which I now would like to listen to. Does any-
: one know of a player for windows or a conversion
: program to convert the files to .mid format?

: If so, kindly inform me...

: I'm looking for a manual on Cubase VST. Can anybody help me ?

in italian lenguage if is possibile

I can't believe people are still trying to do this....Say it with me now.....

IT'S NOT POSSIBLE!!!! MIDI IS NOT SOUND> IT IS REMOTE CONTROL OF A SOUND SOURCE. IT IS HEXADECIMAL CODE...NOT SOUND!!! YOU ARE CONFUSED BECAUSE YOU HEAR A MIDI FILE COMING OUT THE SAME OUTPUTS AS YOUR WAV FILES ON YOUR SOUND CARD> DO SOME RESEARCH> IT CAN"T BE DONE> PERIOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

: Hi,

: I was wondering if someone could spare me a moment to
: pass on a few details about generating drum beats on
: my PC. I have downloaded a few demo's without getting
: too far with them because I am a complete novice. I am
: looking to purchase a reliable piece of software that
: will enable me to design drum beats, change pitch and
: duration etc. then join beats together to make rhythm's.
: Is there any software out there that can emulate the
: Yamaha drum machines? Or will I have to connect a drum
: machine to my PC, purchase software, and sample the
: input from the drum box?

: Any help would be MASSIVELY appreciated.

Neil; don't get a drum machine, they are almost entirely redundant if you have a pc with soundcard. If you only want to do drums, a virtual sampler on your soundcard can hold all the noises of whatever drum machine you prefer (NB you get get a virtual sampler free with AWE soundblaster soundcards), and can be played via MIDI from any non-audio sequencer such as cubase, logic, cakewalk. (Don't try to use the audio versions, as the virtual sampler and the sequencer will both want to use the soundcard, which will cause problems).
As to changing pitch, timestretching, adding effects etc I use Wavelab and Soundforge, both of which are excellent audio editors.

Alternatively, use cubase/cakewalk/logic audio versions in alliance with recycle to create new new drum loops from sampled loops; this way you will also have access to all the other audio functions of these powerful programs.

If you get a hardware sampler, and use an audio program, all these options will available simultaneously.

Good luck,
Craig

Anthony,
I too am a drummer and was in your shoes not too long ago (maybe I still am!).
I use and recommend Cakewalk products. They're relatively easy to use and powerful, you won't outgrow them any time soon. Do you have a midi interface? How about your computer? Do you want to record audio on your pc? This will help determine how beefy your pc should be.

One other piece of advice I would give you is to start with one or two programs and/or equipment and use them exclusively for a while. The trap that I fell into was the "gee whiz" phase of all of this technology and I ended up spending all of my time on the programs and the hardware INSTEAD of making music. Just a thought.

Good luck and I'll look for more of your posts.

: I am a drummer at heart but I'm interrested in creating my own music through my PC. The only other tool I have to get this project started is an Alesis QS6. There is so much software out there for recording and mixing that I don't know which one to choose. I have been thinking about Cakewalk or Emagic Logic Audio. Any input on software would be a big help as well as any other equipement I might need.

Vogue,

try the Yamaha PSRs. I am very happy with my PSR 730, but 200-630 are good as well.

: Hello, can someone tell me what is a good velocity-sensitive keyboard with full-size keys and authentic sound for a 11-year-old who can't afford an acoustic piano?

Kaquino,

look for "Band in a Box" (short BIAB) which does exactly
what you describe. As far as I know, you don't need a MIDI
keyboard to enter the changes, apart from that, it comes with
quite a lot of pieces and styles to play with.

Greetings,
Harald

I have used music@passport for 6 years. Just upgraded to WindowsXP and now I have a problem with the "text" tool. Does anyone out there know of a fix?
