Looking For DAW Software Comptable With Windows 98

(1/4) > >>

Braca862:
First off, I would like to say that I am new to this forum. I heard about it on Vogons. I hope this forum will help me what I am looking for.

I currently have a Windows 98 Dell PC with a Roland PC-200 MKII MIDI controller that is connected via MIDI to a Midiman 2x2 USB interface, which is connected to the computer via usb. I am looking for a DAW software that emulates syths, similar to what Aturia does. It can be boring using just general midi.

In addition, I have several ISO's of samplers from spectrasonics that I listen to using CDXtract. However, I would like to play those samples using my MIDI controller. Anyone know any software that can do that?

Thank you very much.

Welcome...

Well, There's ALOT of soft on here that will work on Windows 98...but...BUTT!...The critical issue is how much RAM you have on it & secondly what is the SPEED of the CPU?

This would determine what is recommended for your setup...

What Spectrasonic ISO you have? I have most of them the old AKAI ones I usually just convert the format to whatever I am using it in...If I use DeltaSP or Orion then I convert them to SF2 using Extreme Sample Convertor...

If using in say Renoise then I convert to XRNI...For Cakewalk Dimension I convert to SFZ...Etc.ETC...

There's alot of old Sequencers-DAWs even Trackers that will utilize MIDI controllers...I have a friend who really likes Dreamstation because the synth part is good but she has a large MIDI Keyboard she uses in it...

I just recently uploaded Synapse Audio Orion 3.8 on here which should work just fine in Windows 98 & is VST & DX has numerous internal synths plus sampler that loads soundfonts if you convert to SF2 once loaded then save in native format...

Yesterday I tried uploading Arturia Storm 2.0 but the upload went corrupt so I'll have to try again...

Maybe you are interested yes uses MIDI Keyboard & good for Windows 98-






Probably have on here in day or two...

Also you might try Protrekkr 2.6...

If your machine has updated DirectX should work, no install required very light on resources...MIDI controller-Keyboard hooks right in with up to 16 note poly per track (you must select the amount)...

I have shared over 1,000 PTI instruments for it on here has all internal FX no messing with VSTs-
