Hi. I hope someone can help me with this. I have a Gateway desktop Windows 8. Does Windows 8 come with a real sound card, is it one of those that is just for Microsoft sounds, etc? I am trying to record from my keyboard, but the output has to be audio, through Cubase (sequencing app.) via VST, which won't work if there isn't a sound card that can create the sounds I need to record myself with a backtrack.
I don't know if the audio part is baffling to some - I don't mean it be - but putting things a little more basically: Does the Realtek "sound card" contain the kind of hardware/software architecture, or whatever, to support virtual musical instruments (VST)?
Thanks and here's hoping someone has an answer to this endless conundrum, like a conveyor belt I've been on for the past few weeks trying to figure this out.
Living in hope.
