I downloaded ProTOOLS Free ( for Mac OS 9 ) and I just can't figure out how
you set it up to record. My other audio sequencers are so simple to set up so I'm just lost with the way ProTOOLS works .. Please help me. |

well... using the sound manager isn't the worst thing in the world but to me... the sound is thinner and not as dynamic. While it usable... its just not the best solution really.
I am a bit puzzled by your midi question. What sound source is midi linked to ifrom within ProTools? Are you using a soft sampler or something? also... what do you mean playing a qwerty? do you have some app that gives you midi control using your keyboard? Never heard of this within ProTools. Do you have OMS setup correctly? If OMS is setup correctly.. then you should be able to hear "midi recieved" within OMS setup if you try the test option when sending midi notes. If not... then something isn't right. Basically, if you send midi out from PT on the mac (you need midi interface for PC too though) and into the PC midi input... then you would need to route the audio out signal from the PC back into the mac for recording but... there lies another issue. You will need the sound card in the mac to get sound in and PC will need a sound card to send audio out (for best results) you may get by using the sound card for just input or output and try using a computer 1/8" mic in for inputting the audio or you may consider using the headphone jack on PC for sound out into sound card or mic line on mac if Giga Studio doesn't require an audio card to function. I am sure if you play around with it enough... you will find a way to make it all work... worse case you may need another sound card and or midi interface for the PC. -------------------- ----------------------------------------
