When you use a virtual instrument, you're using MIDI. Who doesn't use
virtual instruments?

It's true that not too many use MIDI synthesizers as sound sources in
music these days, but many still have a MIDI keyboard and/or drum
controller to record MIDI tracks live. MIDI is definitely alive and well.





For virtual instruments pretty much all I've used is Garritan
(orchestral stuff), that came with Acid (which seems sadly in limbo).

Maybe new owners Magix might reinvigourate Acid, but the last version
still works just fine.
