True, but all you need for that is any freeware program that converts audio
to .WAV. You don't *need* Acid for it.
I don't deny that you can do some cool stuff on Acid, but for me personally,
Recycle an a sampler / sequencer works alot better, especially now that
version 3 reads stereo and 24 bit files, pitch shifts, normalizes, equalizes
and otherwise processes your beats, all while chopping them up and sending
'em to your sampler lickety-split. Makes for more customization, imo. And
also, the original questioner asked about how to use his keyboard with Acid,
and a keyboard doesn't really add to Acid.
And of course, now they've got Reason, which I haven't looked at but I heard
is the bomb-ay, what with it's virtual synth racks, fx galore, and etc.

cool company... no, I don't work for them.
Every one have fun with their own gear!
