Message-ID: Date: 29 Nov 90 00:30:00 GMT Sender: daemon@ucbvax.BERKELEY.EDU Organization: The Internet Lines: 27 Could anyone give me a review of Audio Animator from AE? I was recently thinking that my IIgs MIGHT just be considered a Synthesizer in a computer case, i.e. a Mini FairLight (for 9000$ less). To take advantage of this I'm gonna have to get; Hardware ~~~~~~~~ 1. Card to let me do digital sampling 2. Card to allow me midi interface 3. Card to allow me stereo output Software ~~~~~~~~ 1. Program that allows me to play a midi keyboard and place the input up on a staff (pyware or Music Studio) 2. Program to allow me to change digital sounds to ASIF. 3. Program to allow me to manipulate the actual WAVE of the sound I want to make (otherwise its not digital synthesis). From what I have heard the Audio Animator would take care of all my hardware needs in one shot except a midi keyboard (which I'll look outside the computer field for anyway...). Any help or advice here would make me name my next child after you. - Joe Nowakowski
