Hi everybody

I am a newcommer to NWC and I would like to know if it's possible to record vocals with NWC2
How do you do that.
What external equipment is needed?

The short and absolute answer: No.
NWC does not record audio in any form from any input. It can only record MIDI data input from a keyboard or other MIDI controller. One may also enter notation from the keyboard, much like typing text into a word processor, which NWC will playback according to the instrument chosen and other parameters, through whatever synth module, hardware or software, is chosen from available devices.

If you want a great free audio editor, download Audacity from http://audacity.sourceforge.net/ and if you want to export your recordings as mp3 you must also download and install the LAME library from the links provided.

Also, NWC is strictly a Windows or Windows emulation application (WINE under Linux, for example), while Audacity has versions for Win/Mac.
