Composing Tools

These are some of the tools I use for composing music in general, as well as for composing film music and film scores, including composing software using high quality actual sampled instruments (real musicians play real instruments that are then recorded every possible way so that the composer has real instrument played notes to compose with). MIDI keyboards, MIDI mixing sound boards, monitoring speakers, pro headphones and a digital audio workstation (I use Reaper).
