I'd like to know how i could make that work with my system? I want to do piano on line but i'm not sure how to go about it! Ho should i start and can i have as an example, a classroom type of setting where the students all each have a keyboard and semular equipment? How many students should i start with in terms of the class room idea of teaching piano. I also want to teach different levels of piano from the beginner to the advanced players! I would appreciate any thaughts or suggestions that you might have. ----- Original Message ----- From: "D!J!X!" <megamansuperior@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: <ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Sunday, February 12, 2012 7:38 PM Subject: [ddots-l] Re: Skype and direct audio input? > Chris, I teach online piano lessons in a similar format, I personally > use a laptop (high-end) to run skype and use an old tascam US122 to > input the audio from my daw, which has my keyboard and other things.
