printing out music

I want a very simple computer program that will allow me to play a piece of music on my electric piano & then have it print it out for me. Is there such a thing. I don't want something where I have to lay down different tracks, etc.

Re: printing out music

Thanks to the person who told me about the website. I downloaded Mus.exe & even downloaded winzip. But when I click on the exe it tells me they've been unziped but will not install the music application.

Re: printing out music

Try looking in the <a href="http://www.hitsquad.com/smm/win95/NOTATION/">notation section</a>.

Looking for free/shareware synth

I'm a serious guitarist looking for freeware/shareware that would enable me to create the sounds of violins, brass etc. with my guitar. Is there such a thing in freeware/shareware? Would I need midi of some sort to use it? If so, is there midi freeware that would work for this? Keep it simple for me if possible, please :). I don't know much electronics, just guitar playing.

Thanks sincerely,
Brian Butler

Re: Looking for free/shareware synth

I'll keep it simple cause I don't know anything.

I think you need a keyboard.
Then you need a sequencer.

I got cubasis inwired and emagic logic fun for free, but they might not still be available.

Then on your sequencer, you can change the midi notes to violin or any other instrument.

Oh yeah, with a sequencer you can add notes without a midi keyboard - just using your mouse.

Re: Looking for free/shareware synth

There are all sorts of freeware sequencers, too many to name. If you are just looking to create string tracks then I would get the simplest one available. Not sure what sort of setup you want to use but I would suggest making midi tracks on a sequencer and exporting them to wave files and using a loop sequencer (ACID Express has a freeware version I think) to put your string tracks down and then record guitar over it. Thats probably about the easiest way, and the results can be pretty impressive if you just keep dinking around with the software.

Re: Looking for free/shareware synth

A guy at work just turned me on to midi using Anvil Studio which is Freeware. It has a lot of basic funtionality and is pretty easy to use.

They make their money by selling additional modules to add more functionality.

Re: I need a driver for my sound card!

I updated Windows Me to Win xp and now my loudspeakers would not work. Win xp can not find a driver for my sound card. I would be more than pleased if You could help me. I have the following unfunctioning equipment:
Com1, Com2, lpt3 ,MPU401,optiaudio16, Game port and AUXO.
I do not know which of the above I need a driver for loudspeakers to function. I have tried to do what win xp suggests but nothing helps.
Best regards

Re: I need a driver for my sound card!

This may work:

http://uk.europe.creative.com/support/drivers/product.asp?bypass=1&category=2&os=10&driverlang=1&prod=35&drivertype=1

The card is based on the PCI128/64 cards. If this doesn't work, then you'll need a newer soundcard.

Some one can help me?

Midi Rig!

Midi Rig You ask? Laptop, Sofware & Sound Module, plua a couple ash trays and beer cup holders. Our current setup just isn't reliable anymore, too much abuse and a fried harddrive have made it a real chore to work with. It's time to move on, babe!
Jeff

What's the latest MIDI setup?

Help, What is the latest MIDI rig for live performance with a band. My band has been using a MIDI rig for 3 years. We need to upgrade. How is it done? Can anyone help? How about someone who uses a current rig and is happy? A?
Jeff

Re: What's the latest MIDI setup?

If your upgrading, you must have some reasons for doing so. What does your current system not do?

A midi rig is nonsensical. What's a midi rig? Synths/samplers drum machines? Midi beer coolers?

Regards

Rimmer

Re: What's the latest MIDI setup?

mmmm midi beer coolers :)

You should copy the anastasia font (in your encore directory) to the windows directory, together with the standard windows fonts) Once you've done that, Encore will start up with no problems.

easy "kereoke" style recording

I'm totally new to this. I have alot of complete instrumental hip-hop songs on MP3, and would like to be able to record some MCs rapping over them. Its just for fun, so I don't want to invest much. Any suggestions for software, mics?

Limited Space and Permissions

I was wondering if anyone knows of some half way decent audio editting freeware that does not need to be installed or does not require admin permissions i.e, Taureg, Hammerhead and SawCutter. I know these aren't audio editting tools. All of the above work on my student drive at school and all I need now for a kick ass micro studio is the ability to edit.
Let me know of anything that's acceptable.
Thanks, Jaeson

DM2 Driver Question

I noticed that many people have lost the DM2 CD. There were no real responses to them though. Mixman will replace them for 14 bucks. But anyway, I don't need the software. All I need is the driver for Win 98. If someone could e-mail it to me that would be great.

The reason why it's protected is that you're not meant to play it.
