Then, with the Input Echo set to On and the track primed to Record, I hit record. Then I set the Cakewalk TTS-1 track up the way I always do, calling MG2 up as an effect, rather than an instrument (big problem, in my opinion – MG2 is an instrument and not an effect!). Well, what I did was just set the MIDI track to the same channel that MG2 defaults to (ch 4) and left everything else alone, since I wanted MG2 and not the MIDI track, really. TTS-1 will generate an audio track with instrument sounds based on the settings used in the MIDI track. I tried setting up a track with Cakewalk’s TTS-1 multitimbral synth and then assigned a MIDI track to it. But I just want to get to the MIDI file so I can edit it. So MG2 is laying down something in between a MIDI track and an audio track. Now, if this were a for-real audio track, I wouldn’t be able to do that. I can go back in that track where I’ve laid down a track with MG2 and, using MG2, I can change the instruments around to other MG2 instruments while the track is playing. So I’ve recorded MIDI as audio – well, sort of. With MG2, I have to lay a track down in an audio channel. With the Roland, I can lay down a for-real MIDI track.
I’ve been a CW user since the Pro Audio 9 days – way back when Win98 was the latest OS – and I’ve always stuck with it because it does what I need.Ībout 20 years ago, I bought a Roland GR-33 guitar synth, and had a lot of fun with it, but I’ve retired it in favor of MG2 because MG2, as software, actually tracks way better than the Roland hardware does.īut here’s the big difference that I’m finding myself stuck with at the moment. But I’m just now finally getting around to using MG2 in my DAW of choice, which happens to be Cakewalk.
Hey Folks, well after years of playing around with the MG demos, I finally bought a license back in September of last year.
