to the point: i have a roland keyboard, a midi to usb cable, and a g4 powerbook with os x jaguar. how can i get the noise from the keyboard into the computer and then record it? i have a ditty that i recorded on my keyboard that i'd love to get recorded into my computer before someone accidentally turns off my keyboard and erases the whole thing.... help? anyone?
there's got to be some simple shareware or freeware software that will allow me to do this. i'm not some big recording junkie. i just want to remember my own music. thank you a bizillion for helping out this poor dilapidated rookie

To record MIDI notes into your computer (this is not sound, but instructions to play back using your keyboard) you need a MIDI sequencer to record that. Can't think of anything that records MIDI for free short of Pro Tools free / Logic Fun for OS 9, or a demo of something... - Garageband would do it.
To record it as pure audio and forget MIDI notes, run a cable from the analog audio out of you keyboard to the analog sound-in of your powerbook and download and record with Audio In: http://home3.swipnet.se/~w-34826/ good luck -------------------- -Arvid •• Squish the Squid Productions, Modest Machine
