What Soft Do I Need: Midi And Sampler Options

[Dakke]

Hi,

I'm not a technical guy on this, but I would think that this shouldn't be all too difficult. I've searched the net, but did not find what I needed, which is:

1. I need to play samples
2. record them as midi
3. done.

So, as far as I understand it i would need: a sampler where I load the samples. A midi sequencer which records the samples I play (as in 'not signing, but really playing them').
It needs to be open source / freeware.
Multiplatform would even be better, or at least a way to export the midi recordings.

The sampler does not need to be a complicated one, nor stuffed with a lot of effects. A simple one where I can load a few samples would do just fine.

Suggestions?

Thanks.

{Very seldom will you find the ultimate answer to what your needs are.....particularly when you are talking about freeware. Hell, you will probably get somewhat frustrated with most of the midi sequencers that are a part of DAWs}

mortalengines... Amen, amen, amen.

I can't believe how many people want something for nothing with the goal of then turning it around and making a profit selling stolen music. I can always tell the sound of "Free" or "Stolen" it all sounds like crap and it should, it is heartless, souless and empty. Karma... Impossible to bring good results from bad.

Musicians work, practice, save and sacrifice to create music and then some "Talent Free" thief comes and steals it... "Mac Ain't Like Dat".

I dislike "Amp Hum". I hate "Thieves"... "Stealing hearts is OK".
