Amiga - MIDI - guitar

[Jose]

If you really want to use the Amiga you can get a decent clockport sound card and use it to record the samples. Much better than any of the older soundblasters so I reckon it's enouph. PC software is more evolved though and allows many effects etc. to be added. But if you don't wanna mess with that and just want to capture live sound a good tracker on the Amiga will do the job. I guess you could also add effects extenally with dedicated hardware wich would be even better...
Not much of an effects box but I'm thinking of buying a Vox ToneLab amp modeler myself. It also includes a digital output:pint:

"For the money you'd spend, is it really worth it?"

Honestly ? Depends. For me it's a big yes, mostly because I like/need to have something to record riffs etc in a fast way. Just imagine you wake up in the middle of the night with a cool riff idea and you want to record it as fast as possible and go back to bed or other similar situation (this happends a lot:)) You won't wanna wait till Windows boots up the lauches the application to record it. Just fire up your Amiga and it's ready in 10 seconds:)

"Yeah, happens all the time... just buy a Mac instead!"

Hmm, what's the Mac booting time these days ?
