Is there any way to use my midi DJX keyboard to record to
acid music 2.0? Can i also record music cds to Acid music
so i can add on to the loops by useing an average music
cd? Without buying anymore equipment? thanks

The answer is Yes, Yes, and No you don't need anymore equipment. I
conclude that you have a sequencer connected to your PC? If you do
then you can record your sequenced tracks to Acid, you have to
install the Virtual Midi router, which I believe is included with
acid, and figure out how to send a Midi beat clock from acid, to your
sequencer using the virtual midi router. You need some sort of
software to rip the audio from a CD and save it as a wave file and
then you can open it in Acid, probably the same way you get loops
into your PC, unless you're just using Acid Loops.

Oh wait, I just realized that you have "Acid Music", I don't think,
that version allows you to generate a midi beatclock or even chase to
one. I use Acid Pro and you're able to do this, the way I previously
explained, so check and see if Acid Music can Generate a Midi Beat
clock.
