I'm sure you've heard this story before.....but! I decided that I wanted to start recording my song ideas at home, so...I went to the box store and bought some speakers, a novation launchkey 49, an interface and some headphones. And of course I purchased Reaper. I read through the first 30 pages of the Reaper Manual and still don't know what I'm doing. So many questions and so little time! Can I plug the launchkey into the USB directly? Do I need ASIO drivers? Should I just pay some 16 year old Geek to interpret it all for me or will THE BOOK give me all the answers. If THE BOOK can at least get me started with the keyboard and Reaper, I will be forever thankful. Please be gentle, this new endeavor has already kicked my butt.
