I bought a guitar a few months ago, and I've had a 5 string bass for a while.
There's a LOT of stuff that floats around in my head that I'd like to create, but... I know nothing about music hardware.
1. I'm looking for a drum machine that sounds as close to real drums as possible, but also (of course) with various other kits. I haven't really toyed w/ em at Guitar Center because I'm not sure what I'm doin w/ em. How exactly do they work.. can you layer the different drums - do the bass drum track, then snare, cymbals, etc?
2. I need a keyboard that's a bit more than "500 built in sounds". Something I can... make my own sounds with. I'm a big fan of Nine Inch Nails, and I've often wondered how the hell he makes all of those sounds..
3. Sound cards.. pretty much something to get my music into my computer so I can layer/mix it all.
Does anyone have any suggestions to any of these? Any help is greatly appreciated
