This review is from: Making Music With Your Computer (Em Books from Electronic Musician Magazine) (Sheet music)

I borrowed this book from a friend. It's over 10 years old and totaly out of date. Digital equipment and software is changing at such an amazing rate that a book of this nature needs to be revised or rewriten often. Unless your trying to record on a computer that has a green blinking cursor. Don't bother.
If you're trying to record on a computer with a green blinking cursor. Don't bother.
