    hi storm.. yes I was quite lucky to get a job using my music skills.. My degree was Music & Music Technology so it was what I always wanted to do. But don't be too jealous- I work on Yamaha's music software (eg https://www.digitalmusicnotebook.com) - I don't actually get to use much music as part of the job, although I am surrounded with cool equipment which makes life more interesting :)

    If you get one of these: http://www.imuso.co.uk/ProductDetail.asp?StockCode=AC00040

    you can plug your bass guitar into the line input on your computer. But without a mic you won't be able to add vocals..
    Thanks.. I won't be getting it from that site though... 6.99 postage and packaging!!! :eek: :eek: :eek:

    Have a play around with how good your inbuilt mic in the PC is, otherwise if you get the right adapter you should be able to plug it straight into the PC (though you won't be able to hear yourself play)
    I have an inbuilt mic??

    I found this.. http://www.lyricplaza.com/midi/1/abba-money_money_money.mid

    If anyone is dead keen to make a start they can record themselves along side this- I can turn this into a higher quality mp3 file with more "natural" sounding instruments that people can add their own recordings to
    .. But I won't have time to do this till Sunday.

    Let me know if this will be useful or if I'm stepping over the line :)

    Ouch- Didn't spot that, sorry! You can probably find something similar from any independent hi-fi shop- shouldn't be more than a couple of quid.
