You are right about that. It is great for getting some instant sounds out of the box though. > > the wavetable-thing: puh... i dont know how to do this. and i cant try > it out on her computer, because she lives in another city. her boyfriend > is also a linux-dude (he will install the system), but he has not much > to do with music-production. I believe if you could get rosegarden working, you can set an option to automatically load a sound font into a soundblaster type sound card when it starts. Not such a 'standard' way of doing things and very hardware dependent. > > qsynth: thats a good idea. i dont think, she want to spend money at the > beginning. but i already found some soundfonts on the web. seems to work > well. > Sounds like a winner then! > sec24: where is the record button? The following are two very good howtos for using seq24.
