Need a SIMPLE program to edit midi files

Hi,
Can someone tell me a very basic, SIMPLE program to use to edit midi files? All I want to do is download a particular piece and use it when practicing pieces for band. I want to be able to see the music (scroll while playing), and be able to change the key, etc. I use Finale for professional transcription work, so am familiar with it, but when opening a midi file to it, it often does not catch time changes. Cakewalk is too complex, and I'm not interested in spending the big bucks for it. Any good suggestions?

Midi Sequencing

I have a question about Midi Sequencing. I sequenced some things in Cakewalk But i dont know the next step on how to put it in with the rest of the drums and stuff in my song. Also, i think i can use a sampler and play it back through there, Like giga sampler instrument files, to make it sound good, and not like those midi sounds. Is this what i need to do? thanks

vocal removal in soundforge

i need help ASAP.If any one knows how to remove vocals from a track with soundforge 4.0 please let me know asap. i will be a friend for life.

cheers mates

Re: vocal removal in soundforge

I don`t think that Sound Forge will let you extract the vocal from a sample, as far as i know the only way is try using filters. Male vox try from 1k to 6k, female vox try 2/3k to 9/10k.

Mixing software

Hi.
I'm looking for a software that allows me to mix 2 different songs. The way I want to mix them is while one of them is still playing, start the other song, having the sound of both tracks at the same time. Once the two tracks are playing I want to be able to fade out on the first track and continue playing the second track.
Does anybody knows about a software that allows me to do that? I also want to save the mix of the tracks. Is there any software that allows me to do that? Mix them and save them on my hard drive in a format that I can burn the mix in a cd?
If anybody knows or can recommend me a software, feel free to email me at: cnalic@yahoo.com

Thanks

RE: performer "POPS -Spikes"

Howdy all,

I'm using Digital Performer 2,72on a Mac G4(350 agp) Mac OS 9.0 , lots of ram and disk space, During extended recording circumstances to 2-track transfers from a cassette deck, huge spikes and pops show up that are not on the source material. I'm using a 2408 connected to a Yamaha 01v via light pipe and the main clock is coming from the internal PCI 324 bus setting. any thoughts as to how to solve this probelm?

Re: RE: performer "POPS -Spikes"

This looks like you have two word clock masters. Remember that only one piece of equipment in a setup can be the clock master, and everything else must be slaved to it. You write that your master is the 324 card. Are you sure then that the 01v's clock is set to "optical in", "ADAT" or the like? (I don't know the 01v and what definitions Yamaha uses.) Try also the opposite, i.e. define the 01v as master and the 324/2408 as slave. You can set the audio source to be the word clock slave, but make sure you have light pipes connected both ways (in to out and out to in).

Oh - and always turn down your speakers when making changes to clock settings. :o

listen to this and rate the quality
