To answer your question, you're most likely better off to look in the user manual for your synth.

However, it also may be the case that you need to learn quite a bit about DAW's and computer-based sequencing (based on the wording in your post) so read up on the tutorials in the Producer's Forum.

I'm oddly reminded of the ebay listing from the guy who bought a Xone 4D and couldn't figure out what it does which ended his dream of becoming the world's greatest jesus-poser.

as i see that synth is a total workstation and u do everything on it right? drums, synths, arranging and everything? so what u want to do is just record the output from the synth so u have your finished track on wav/mp3? To do this u only need a program that record the computer input. Or if your synths has USB then u can probably do it that way. the manual should tell u how then, it probably comes with some software.

Or do u plan to edit the track inside the computer afterwards? Then u need a daw. A good free one is Reaper. www.Reaper.FM
Its worth a try.

yeh man I want to record the finished track as wav/mp3 on ma computer. the manual came with qubase but I have some problems with the softwares license, so im thinkin of getting a new one. the manual tells you how to connect it to ur computer but it doesnt tell you how ur software can recognize it. I mean when it comes to connecting your synthesizer to the computer or getting your software to recognize ur keyboard.. I have no clue, im lost? I mean the manual can can only get me so far... any books or beginner guides I can read that would help me out... cuz Ive made soo many great songs and beats but I cant record them so everytime I shut down ma synthesizer theyre all gone.
