Hello all
I'm new to this list and a linux user for 1 year. I use to play guitar
and i'm planning to learn to play drum. As i'm starting to create my
own songs and i wanna record it to my pc, i need some tips and advices
about, witch programs to use and where to start reading about it.
Hi and welcome, im also new to this list and also a brazilian :), though
i can answer some questions you made but not all of them that i can let
to more experienced users to do so, first you would like to take look at
jack audio connection kit, this is the place to begin in my opinion
cause it enable a low-latency server that supports multi connections
allowing you to record songs that you made in a high quality performance
and have response in real time, you can read more about it here :
http://jackit.sourceforge.net/
and here:
http://linux-sound.org/one-page.html#jack
I wanna start reading about drum machines too, i've already downloaded
and installed the Hydrogen Drum Machine, what do you have to say about
it ? Is there another one better? Where can i find texts about
programming these drum machines ?
i dont know about making custom drumkits for hydrogen but you can
download their drumkits at the official site, there is also a good place
to gather more information about it.
And the last doubt, i have an Amplifier with a line
out and a phone
plug, and i want to play the guitar and record it in the computer but
using the amplifier to have a better sound and its distortion. My
soundcard is a Onboard VIA AC97 (my mobo is a Asus A7V8X-X). Can i
record it? Using the lino out of the amplifier and the line in of the
soundcard ? I've tried but nothing happens, but if i try to plug the
guitar into the soundcard's line in, i can hear it, but a bad and low
song.
I dont have experience in this field so i ask for someone else answer
this for you.
Thanks (and sorry for any english mistake, i'm
from Brazil =-] ).
welcome e de nada.
