Re: Couple Of Questions...

1999-12-01 by Chris Thackston

I got my kit from Musicians Friend. Decent price, free shipping and no
interest for 6 months.

I use a SoundBlaster Live Value card which I'm fairly pleased with. I'm no
hardware expert but it does the job for me. I got it for $60 at a computer
show. I like using SoundFonts which turns your computer into a sampler,
sort of. 

For software, I use SonicFoundry's ACID Pro and Cubase VST for tracking
and sequencing and SoundForge for audio sweetening. I also toy with
several other gizmos like Stomper and VAZ for synthesis.

Thanks for the feedback!
