I have recently gotten into the mucis making scene, using eJay, but I want a bit more choice when it comes to making beats. The problem is, eJay doesnt allow you to COMPOSE your own jingles or tunes (to underpin a beat), it onl;y provides samples which you must use. So, I've decided to go for MIDI sequencing which would enable me to get the exact sound I want with the exact instruments I want. I coukld then render these into WAV format and finally inport them into my mixes.
So, onto my question: Does anyone know where I can download an effective, reliable, FREE MIDI sequencer? Any good names to look out for? I've searched under KLIte but for some reason everything except for media downloads as .dat files, which I have to 'open with' something, and as I assume MIDI sequencers are programs in themselves I didnt think you'd have to open with anything.
Any help woiuld be greatly appreciated. I've heard of ntrack, wavmaker III, MIDINight Express, but these are all restrictred Shareware which you have to register to (which I can't afford right now)
Sorry about the length, thanx in advance.
