MIDI w/ Protools

[GAME INSANE]

Anyone makin' midi beats in Protoolz?

If so, drop some lines on how its goin or what yall usin...

I JUST USE IT TO SYNC. I USE CUBASE FOR "MIDI BEATS".


:HGK:

LOL@MIDI BEATS

 

[HERESY]

BTW MY VERSION OF "MIDI BEATS" WOULD SIMPLY BE ARRANGING/SEQUENCING THE *MIDI* (INTRO,VERSE,HOOK ETC ETC ETC) BEFORE THE ACTUAL AUDIO IS RECORDED. IF THATS WHAT YOU MEAN I DO IT IN CUBASE SX.


:HGK:

If you want to do some midi sequencing you're better off looking at Logic Audio, Digital Performer, Cubase, or Sonar. PT is capable but lacking.

Much love yall..Ima research it a bit more...

Heresy, ya we on the same page, ARRANGING/SEQUENCING.

Damn I really wanted to be able to do it all in one program, but havin' difficulties..

DON'T DO IT. I just recently tried to go that route. Ooh Wee was that a bad move. I have a lot of gear so I had to get a MOTU midi timepeice AV, then having to open up an AUX track for each instrument, then creating all the midi tracks in the sequence, scrolling through the pulldowns to pick your inst., then you have to convert the midi to audio, and hope your cpu can handle all that . Fucked me up. I had it hooked up for like a week just to see if I could get used to it. Too much pointin and clicking to make a track, I wouldn't say it's difficult , just a long process. I just bought a MPC4000 last week, and this shit is lovely. I used a MPC2000xl for the longest time , that's a cool piece too.

just get cubase sx or sonar 3...render ur midi trax to 24 bit wav and shoot em to a pro tools studio to mix down...or shit u can mix em on cubase...a thousand ways to make a beat...but i wouldnt use protools for midi....its strength is audio.

You can't export to wav when working with midi tracks. You have to manually record (bounce) the tracks to audio and then export.

i kno this homie....i was shooting dude a quick answer..... any one who knoes bout makin beats knows u gota record maunally when dealing with hardware then u render, or bounce as u like to call it, to wav. .... btw u can render midi to audio when workin with vsti's or dxi's without manually recording
