I've been tasked with mixing together the audio tracks for my church's cantata. We have originals of everything on cassette and I've been busy this evening taking things over to CD. Some of the pieces have "individual part" recordings where the mic for a particular section of voices is recorded with the music to make it easier for a singer to hear their specific part.
Problem is that I don't have those for all of the parts for all of the songs. In the past our director has "created" them herself by playing the piano along with the main track, however that is taking music played off a "boom box" and using open air mixing and then recording on a tabletop unit (*shudder*). If I have to I'm going to have her do the same thing, only instead of using an open air mixer I'm going to use the laptop to capture the piano that she's going to play while listening to the master on headphones. Then I'll mix the two tracks together again using audacity. What I'd like to be able to do is actually plug in the notes on a score on the computer and have it use the MIDI to generate the audio to mix back in with the master. Question is, I don't know what tool I could use for this. Open source or free is the name of the game here, unfortunately. Anyone have ideas? Thanks!
