Digital Performer 6 Power The Comprehensive Guide PDF Download

The digital music revolution isn't just for keyboardists anymore. Guitarists can now get in on the action. Recently, the computer music world has exploded with plug-ins that emulate popular amplifiers and effects. Imagine having a virtual roomful of the greatest amps ever made, the ability to use any speaker cabinet you like, a wide selection of microphones, and a broad array of effects-all within your computer! And that's just the beginning. With the right equipment and a computer, you can now access synthesizer sounds directly from your guitar using MIDI technology, sequence your MIDI guitar with popular DAWs, such as Pro Tools, Reason, Cubase, Logic, Digital Performer, and others, change from a Stratocaster sound to a Les Paul sound with the turn of a knob, learn how to control virtual instruments with your guitar, instead of with a keyboard, and much, much more. While it's amazing that all this power is within your grasp, you will need some pointers on how to use it effectively.
