I like Pro Tools, but that doesn’t have a sheet music based interface for MIDI music, which is important to me. I hear Finale is great for sheet music, but I believe only the latest version has any audio recording whatsoever…so I’m assuming it’s not as polished as other programs more dedicated to audio. Can anyone recommend a program that does both decently?

I’m will to spend maybe $500. I already have a M-Audio sound card (delta 66), and the Roland JV-1010 sound module for MIDI. I have Windows XP. Something that can use VSTI plug-ins is a big plus.

Thanks in advance!

I think what you want here is more along the lines of a compatible plug-in that will work with Pro-Tools.. Now that will be harder to come by than what would be compatible with other DAW software like Sonar for example, but at any rate I’m sure there are plug-ins for both.. There is no better solution though then just calling sweetwater.. www.sweetwater.com for the number I think it’s 800 222 4700 at any rate, there is no better customer service in the world.. not in the audio world or otherwise.. They are absolutely outstanding and can suggest the perfect fix I’m sure. So I hope this is helpgull and the best of luck to you.
