Sorry. Big topic here and not sure I’m in the right place. But since this stuff us all related (in my mind) figured i’d put it all out there and ask for forgiveness later.
Background. Relatively new to electric guitar (and acoustic drums). Came here a while back and got a ton of help with picking out a rig (special thanks to RSM!) and i settled on what I believe to be the best setup for me.
Now that I’ve gotten all that setup I’m looking to make my training and getting into music theory/ composing/ recording etc started in a way that makes sense in a similar fashion.
To date have purchase and ive been using moises pro version but still learning all the things i can do with that as it relates to training & recording.
That has kind of taken me into the arena of converting music files that i purchase from imusic which has exposed me to midi and xml.
My “studio” setup right now includes a headrush core, a zoom livetrak L12 mixer and a yamaha ead10 acoustic to digital drum module.
All of these devices have some sort of recording capabilities and muxing capabilities and such and im trying to get my head wrapped around it all.
But this has led me down a lot of different avenues and I’m kind of just trying to dumb it all down on some level….. and wait for it…. Yes this takes me back to training and potential software i might want to purchase that could potentially be wrapped up into some sort of ball of wax that can handle a lot of what i want to do with less pieces.
So here goes.
What i want to be able yo do.
Use my moises in conjuction with a guitar to tab/ drum to notes type software. I can use the moises to separate out the guitar and drum components do i can practice tgat aspect but i also want to be able to read the sheet music as well.
So then once i get that part of the puzzle figured out was thinking it would be helpful to have “the bouncing ball” over the notes as a way to keep track of where i am when I’m playing along (or not) atvany given tempo. I know there us software out there that does this (apparently a lot of different types) so would be best for my purposes if it was geared more towards guitar and drums.
So my understanding is that some of this software has import/ export capabilites to xml and midi….. which I’m thinking atsome point I’m going to be playing around with because of the devices i have capabilities if hooking into a DAW…. So don’t want to not be able to convert files to compatible formats.
Then there is the whole selfrege and ear training software component that on some level for some of the softwares is tied back into the bouncing ball and music to notes type software.
Then i kind of get to recording my guitar and some vocals through my headrush core via mixer and my ead10 via mixer and all back to the DAW software. I’m considering biting the bullet and going with maybe apple logic pro, cubase, reaper etc…. So i have the right tools when i start dabbling (soon) with recording…. Kind of just because i want to learn how yo do it.
I know im throwing a lot out but like i said earlier to me it’s all related.
Hopefully I haven’t blown everyones mind and some of you here are willing to give ne some of your insight.
Thanks.
