Mac I really appreciate you taking your time to explain all this to me. Im not actually a stupid person but I would have no problem with you speaking to me as to a child in order for me to understand what to do

I think I understood most of that except the bit about Arming a midi for recording.Do you mean I have to play the midi track and have it record inside of RB to a wav then export the wav? If so , and heres the child part , how do I go about doing that ?? If you could explain I would be grateful.
And no I have no external synth , using nothing but a soundcard on my computer. I see options for midi channels and sending dxis directly etc but right now its all beyong my ken.
