Hi I want to play around making electronic music. I've had a sampler before so I'm familiar with the concept, but it seems like people aren't using as many keyboards synths anymore as much as just software. For example, what's the difference between Logic Pro and a synthesizer? I have a mac, do I need just software or do I need at least one keyboard for the recording. If I'm not ready to buy LP unseen, can I demo it, or better yet it and other software? I really don't know where to start to know what I need.
I need a sequencer, and synth, and effects, as far as I can tell. Eventually vocals, and multitrack but I think GarageBand is a multitrack. What's the cheapest and easiest way to get started with some synth sounds until I know what I need want? Thanks in advance. donWolf |

Check out Digital Performer from MOTU. DP also comes with many virtual instruments and composition apps. I've been a DP user and a PEAK user for about 5 or 6 years and am very happy with it. DP and Logic are the most popular high end apps. Chec them both out. MOTU
