[Finale] OT: Gig Bag for Edirol PCR-30

2003-07-10 Thread Darcy James Argue
I just purchased the Edirol PCR-30 -- a 32-key MIDI controller that plugs in directly to your computer's USB port -- for on-the-road MIDI Speedy Entry. Of course, now I need a gig bag for it, and -- unlike the M-Audio Oxygen 8 -- there don't appear to be any bags made specifically for this con

You can go to tape but you don't have to. Your MIDI program can play your outboard synthesizer, which is connected to your sound-in port on the CPU (probably it's actually an audio-out signal coming from your outboard amplifier that you would connect, unless your synth is self-amplified). A concurr

And that's what makes our economic system! Thanks all to this great information -- on my ancient MacPC I've come to the conclusion that if I want my midi files to be on CD I must first go to tape and transfer back in to the computer --- frankly the loss of fidelity is minor compared to the qua

For me the next year will require a major investment to run OS X. In addition I will need a new scanner, cd-burner, printer and several major so
