    Cakewalk has announced a new line of keyboard MIDI controllers, the A-series

    You do know that Roland owns both Cakewalk and Edirol right? So it probably is a modified PCR-800.

    Did I mention I hate windows?

    Nothing is impenetrable but Macs are built on a much more secure platform and way more difficult to do damage to. Also the OS is isolated from the user accounts so worst case a virus could screw up a user account but none of this not booting because of virus's crap. I have loaded Ubuntu Linux on...

    ProTools 8 users...

    it cant really access the sounds, you have to route the audio inputs of the keyboard in to an input of PT. You may have to set the midi channel in PT to the channel of the patch you want.

    Does wealth make you special?

    got ya dacalion I think we did miscommunicate a bit, sorry about that. It does take credit card companies/banks making interest to make money, true. But I would still say it was not always like that. It used to be horrible when someone had a mortgage. Bank made money in other ways. An economy...

    Does wealth make you special?

    So let me get this straight, you are saying that if Americans had a positive savings and less debt that would be bad? You do know our economy did not function on debt until that last 30 years and to quote your own article "Consumer debt in conjunction with a housing bust is simply the nut that...

    Nixon ended the gold standard and Regan did the borrow and spend thing and made it seem OK to be in debt, but Clinton is who screwed up the housing market and helped start the current market problems. I blame those three for the current problems. Politicians......ugh

    "When people use credit the economy is fine, when people stop, our economy struggles." Totally disagree, our economy is struggling BECAUSE of to much debt. Way to many people in over there heads in it. If we got our national savings up from negative and everyone paid cash our economy would thrive!

    Logic Pro & The College Dropout

    "that whole "pro tools is industry standard" line isnt really true at all" I am a Logic guy myself (but I am Pro tools certified) but EVERY major studio uses Pro Tools period. 95% of every top 40 hit is done in Pro tools and 99% of any film you seen in a major theater was mixed in Pro tools...

    Does wealth make you special?

    Why is it not right? Both parties get something they want, advertising and a free guitar (in your example) It seems everyone wins. When a restaurant is opened (IE the first post example) it is in hopes that the restaurant will get future business and endorsements from the wealthy person and his...

    Does wealth make you special?

    So should artists that are top 40 have to buy there gear or should they get it for free? Because you know they do not. On another note, most (over 90%) of millionaires in america are born of middle class family's and are first generation self made millionaires. So they do earn it. hmmm....
