Since you have a computer. Any low-to-midrange Casio or similar brand will do. Use your computer to record it. That way you just need to find one that has a midi interface.\n\nIf you really want to learn, you want to make sure it has good sized keys, not the small keys that are hard to play.

Go to motox.com but it would be cooler if you made it up yourself just copy all the best parts of other tracks thats what i did

Are you recording directly into the multi-track view?  Why not record everything you want to use and build it all in the multi-track?

Have u tried Pro Tools Free ?  I've heard it exports MIDI files, dont know about other formats. hopefully, it'll work with .wav files, which are easily convertible to .mp3

Yes it is! Try using a program like "All Sound Recorder" or something similar. There are all kinds of "What You Hear" type recorders out there and you can probably get the free trial to handle the sound you want to record. Hope this helps. :)

Apple's Garage Band software is great for this.  It comes with hundreds of intrumental or percussion loops, plus it allows you to import other tracks and record live over them.

Are you familiar with mixing and recording?If so,it should operate as any other board. Although a manual would show special features etc.The link below will give you a decent idea of all the features and if you have done recording you should be able to use the board without any difficulties.And you might be able to contact them for a manual! I wish I could have been more helpful!     Good luck!

Have you tried dragging and dropping one track to see if it plays?\nAlso, it should support WAV. Most of them do. If you can convert your tracks to WAV using Audacity it might play those.\nhttp://audacity.sourceforge.net/ -Audacity music tool.\nAudacity is free. Open your track, click File - Export as WAV, and save it.

If you're serious about recording, you should purchase a Mackie Onyx 1220 mixer (Digital 12-channel - other models come with even more channels) which lists for about $300 at musiciansfriend.com (discount musical supply store) and the corresponding Mackie Onyx Firewire card which lists for about $400 at musiciansfriend.com  This digital combination will allow you to record and mix straight to your PC for editing and gives a studio sound so pure and clean that even experts have a hard time distinguishing it from a professional studio.  The Mackie Onyx w/Firewire is currently state-of-the-art for home-studio production and will allow you to produce your own professionally sounding CDs through your PC.  Of course, you'll need a CD burner on your PC and no less than Windows XP.  If you're on a limited budget, I would recommend a Tascam 8 to 16-channel analog (cassette) recorder/mixer.  It's very easy to operate and really comes in handy for recording your "creations" if you're a simple singer/songwriter, etc.  It is limited, however, in that you cannot record to CD.  You usually can find a used Tascam on ebay for $125 or less.  If you're doing vocals, you abviously will need some good microphones.  For single voices, I highly recommend the Shure SM-58 unidirectional mic which is standard hardware for most pros.  If you want to record multiple voices and/or instruments through one mic, I recommend the Behringer B-1 condenser mic for quality and price.  You'll need mic stands, and you'll need a sturdy,  high-quality one for a condenser mic like the B-1.  If you're going to run all of your instruments and mics directly into your mixer, you really don't need to soundproof your studio.  Soundproofing is necessary, however, if you're going to use a condenser mic (they're very sensitive) or are worried about disturbing other people.  If you want a beat, you'll need to do one of three things:  Find yourself a drummer, buy a drum machine, or buy a guitar-effects processor like the Digitech RP-100 which includes a built-in drum machine.  For the latter equipment, I recommend musiciansfriend.com, americanmusical.com, or ebay.com for lowest prices.  You'll pay a little extra at local music stores because of their overhead.  You usually can,  however, get good "sound" advice from the folks at your local music store.  You'll also need to invest in some cables.  It really pays to invest in some quality cables too.  Make sure you use low-impedence XLR cables for your vocal mics.  For instruments, I highly recommend Lifelines by Pro Co Sound.  They come with a lifetime guarantee and literally will give you perfect sound for decades - also usually available at musiciansfriend.com  I hope this has helped.

Difficult to write all the steps down here, but you can have a look at the following for some guidance (currently under development...) http://www.cassette2cd.co.uk/DIY/how_to.htm This is certainly 'do-able', if you have the patience....\nYou will need a cassette player (!), PC with a stereo input to soundcard, conversion software and CD writer.\nNote: if you are using a laptop, you may need a USB external soundcard (mine has only a mono mic input – not good enough!) – you can get cheap, simple but effective ones (from Hong Kong) via ebay…\nYou could get someone to do it for you, there are plenty to choose from out on the web, this type of job is perfect for a 'virtual' studio.\nThe software is probably the thing you really want to know about.. you will find loads out there. Personally I use Magix Audio Cleaning Lab – primarily produced for lifting vinyl, but will take any analogue signal. It has loads of features including cleaning filters, effects and editing… it’s cheap too and even comes with a stereo cable – try ebay. There are loads more, some even free downloads (audacity avaiable from download.com)– listen to folks who have used the software then have a go….\nOh yeah, and Magix has automatic track recognition based on silence between tracks and auto-stop recording so you can go out for the day and it will stop at the end of your tape – really useful!! You will use up loads of hard-drive space, so don’t try this if you are pushed for space…You may need to purge the huge files every so often (10MB per minute WAV files, 1MB per minute MP3). You could save some space recording directly into MP3 at the sacrifice of a little sound quality

i would suggest: recording audio tracks and stuff is sony vegas; for music creation fruityloops...sorry if im not into cakewalk products, im not just satisfied with the sound quality it produces (for the final product)...it has a distinct sound unlike sony vegas, what you recorded is what you'll hear.... if its trash in then for sure its trash out...hehehe...a lil exageration there...and also you need to get a dose of plugins to enhance your sound... try wavearts, waves, timeworks, izotope, sony express packs...but try not to overdo it...i just had all sorts of these plugins just for reference--so you wont be limitted with your resources...
