you cant mix internally?
Probably I can, but I have outboard effects that I like to apply on a
per-channel basis. I wonder if it's possible to use the outputs and
inputs on my M-Audio 2496 as effects sends and returns to incorporpate a
couple of outboard effects while mixing internally? That might sway me.
So what about
ones that require a different way of working? Maybe it's
time to learn a new way of working!
yeh sampling duties can be performed by all kinds of apps
these days depending on what you want to do exactly. Also, it
seems people have been put off writing a sampler due to US patent
problems.
That's a shame about the patent issue...
have you tried the soundfont editor/player
Swami/Fluidsynth?
Maybe that will help you become less reliant on your hardware,
but i wouldnt sell it just yet! :-)
Thanks for the tip!
cheers
