Hola Kyle,

Thanks for your thoughtful reply and for the Presonus link.

I presently own separate audio and midi interfaces, but thanks to your remark, I've learned that several manufacturers bundle Cubase with them. So far, I've discovered Presonus and a couple of entry-level interfaces by Tascam.

So I could conceivably spend, say less than $150 US, consolidate my audio/midi interfaces into one unit, and get a great piece of sequencing software at the same time.

1. Any other brands I might look at for audio/midi interfaces?

2. Are there any portable digital recorder brands (other than Olympus) bundling Cubase LE with their recorders?

Gracias,

Paco
