Hey all, been working with music for several years, and am wanting to do some more serious composing (serious being putting together multiple peices, with full instrumentation that i am pleased with, not for anything much bigger)
I play guitar, play bass, and play sax (tenor)
I am wanting to come up with some more soft rock types of songs, no vocals, think like Lionel Richie or Supertramp types. This isnt personally what I listen to, but I would love to compose some.
What do you guys recommend, I can not play piano, but am confident I can brush up on it enough to begin composing through a midi keyboard. Do you recommend getting one? I would like a program that can synth instruments with reasonable quality, and if possible have loop editing features as well, though that is low on my list. I know this is a tall order, but what do you recommend?:)
