Hey hey new person here Iv got myself a midi controller and i was wondering if anybody knows some (preferably) free software i can use to play sounds through the controller (like garage band) for Windows XP. Its very frustrating having a midi controller at my dispense and not being able to use it! Any help would be great For a heads up, software i already have includes Sibelius, Adobe Audition and Audacity. thanks Peace Rob
sounds like you need a sound module instead....even with a killer sound card, you would have to have a computer with a ton of ram and a hefty proccesser to come close to be able to play "in real time" because of latency or lag time between the computer and the controller.....with a rack module, theres no latency.....plus the good sounds would require a good software pakage of sounds which isnt cheap either i dunno.....sounds like it would be easier goin the rack route instead Keyplayer
damn yeh the thing is its not mine to keep, its a band mates and hes keeping it here for storage so i dont wanna go out and put money into it just found out i can put it through Sibelius although the sounds without kontakt player are pretty bad, and yeh it does lag slightly
