Revisit an old important question: best MIDI sound - 01/20/19 07:35 PM
It’s been a decade since I can recall a good discussion of this. What is the best MIDI sound you can get for BIAB?
There are hardware MIDI synths such as the Roland Integra-7 that I use. A hardware synth might be easier to set up and use less computer resources, but it requires real-time playback to render a song. So let’s forget about the setup aspect. Concentrate on the question this way: if you wanted to buy something to play MIDI from within BIAB that sounded the absolute best, regardless of cost or convenience, what would you buy?
Note: must support music of all genres; also assumes you have a better-than-good computer.
Any ideas?
