Hello friends:
I'm trying to learn how to construct and record "beats" on my mac. RIght now I have Pro Tools LE and Garageband. I also have BFD. We've been suing garageband to sketch out songs and want to start building our own beats instead of relying on the apple loops. I guess ideally we could use Pro Tools to work with Midi, but unfortuantely the MBox we have doesn't have a midi input.
So, how would we go about doing this? Do we need to have another program to start building beats? Something like Reason or Ableton? We've got good drum sounds with BFD, we just need to learn how to use them! Anyone have a word of advice or somewhere they could point me? Thanks!
