Hello I was wondering if anyone might have suggestions of hardware and
software to use for creating professional powerpoint documents. We
want to incorporate voice, music, CD/DVD playback into powerpoint
presentations. We are looking at a couple of different layouts. One
would be a PC with a Digital Audio interface. The other would be a PC
with Advanced sound card and mixer. Probably no more than six inputs
to one or possibly two outputs. I am extremely new to audio and do not
understand all of the nomenclature. Also could you recommend
directional microphones used for narration. The current location that
we have the studio has an air handler that cannot be turned off. Thank
you in advance for any assistance.


Try here, there is a posting board there to, with tech's monitoring and they
will reply to your posts. Avid is the pro and high end A/V software and
turn-key systems and is the standerd for the whole pro world.
