I wouldn't go for a lesser number of keys than 4 octaves; if you have the space & money go for the MPK261 also from Sweetwater. |

So basically I'm stuck with what I got. I never knew what Structure Free was, but it apparently came with PT, so I'm definitely gonna check that out. |

Re: MIDI Playback
You might take a look at this video. It shows how to make a drum track template for use in PT. Might be helpful. He uses Xpand2, but the same concept would work with Structure Free or any other drum VI.

If you do like the way that Squire plays for you there's a bunch of things you can do to get the sound where you want it. Cheapest is a good setup with strings, neck adjustment if needed and intonation. That alone will make the feel and playing a lot easier. Check out Stewart Macdonald (abbreviated StewMac) website for some really good books on setting up a guitar. Then if you want you can change out the pickups. Not all that complicated if you pick up a pre-wired kit that just drops in. There are some that even come right on a new pickguard so it's a simple swap-out when you change strings. |

As far the the Squire goes I already gutted the thing n put in all new electronics (wires, pots, pups, etc). I'm just not a big fan of Maple fretboards, which it has. It's my #1; I use it for standard tuning or drop d. Then I have a super cheapo Chinese one that's still stock (plays nice, sounds terrible). I usually keep that one in open g, although I'm planning on setting it up for an open E5 tuning this weekend, EEBBBB. I like having that second guit so I don't have to constantly re-intonate my main Strat. I'm familiar with stewmac. Guitar Fetish (GFS) is a cool online store as well. They pretty much make knock offs of all the popular pups. They're cheap and actually sound good too. |

Re: MIDI Playback
Does Structure Free just have those 3 drum kits, studio, 80s electric and 90s electric? All the rest are loops that don't work like the 3 kits I just mentioned (playing samples with the midi controller). I noticed a Structure Free download page, but it's old and none of the links work.

Re: MIDI Playback
I'm pretty sure I have ver 1.5.6 of Structure Free. I've been looking for the manual but all I can find is an old download page from the avid site. The links are broken and it's from ver 1.0.2

Re: MIDI Playback
Did you sort this out Adam? I've been tearing my hair out over the same thing. i.e. want to record (and split) midi using the drum module sounds without using a plugin that changes them. Recording okay, just can't route for playback without a plugin I don't want.
