Hi everyone,

Just need some help in getting started with all things midi.

I work overseas and getting a band together is getting too difficult. I am looking into getting a band together so we can keep on playing gigs when a band member is away on holiday. I am a guitarist and I have worked with backing tracks in the past which are excellent but not so, when I bass player comes along and wants to join in cos you cant get the backing track bass player to shut up! :exasper: This is where midi comes in. Is there any equipment that can be purchased to play with on stage so we don't need a drummer or keyboardist present.

Is this equipent a player, a sequencer or what?:rolleyes2

Can anyone give me a couple of pointers into the kind of equipment I am looking for with perhaps a few weblinks. preferably in the UK where I can get hold of a contraption of this kind.

Thanks.

Graham
